Automatic entry

unknown

I am using Quicken Premier 2017. When I download bank cd information with automatic entry on the category defaults to the cash account, I want it to go to interest income. How can I change that? Thank you for your help.

Hi @ MK ,

See this Article: https://getsatisfaction.com/quickencommunity/topics/add-your-quicken-information-to-your-posts-plus-...

You Identified Quicken Premier 2017 but posted under Quicken for Mac, in which there is no Quicken Premier 2017 version for the Mac Computers.

Sorry, it is Quicken for PC,

I suggest that you turn off automatic accepting of downloaded transactions for this account (or all accounts). That gives you an opportunity to review the downloaded transaction and make necessary changes before the transaction is written into the register.

Another place to look at is the Memorized Payee List.
Look
for a memorized transaction that matches the incorrect entry. Edit it to change the category.
I suspect the same Payee Name is / was also used for a transfer between checking and CD account. Try to create a distinct Payee Name used only for "CD Interest".

Where are the "Auto-accept downloaded
transaction" settings?

There are two places
where this is controlled in Quicken for Windows:

- Globally, for all accounts, in Edit /
Preferences / Downloaded Transactions

- For each account individually, the
global setting can be overridden from the Edit Account Details screen, Online
Services Tab. Look for blue text "Automatic Entry is: ON / OFF".
Click the text to change the setting.

Hi @ MK ,

You can also disabled Automatically category transactions.
And when you turn off automatic accepting of downloaded transactions as @ UKR suggests, every time you highlight a transaction in the Downloaded Transactions area beneath the Register, you can change it within the Register, then Save it. By saving it in the Register, automatically accepts it as well and clears it.

Thank you both for your help. I believe that will fix the problem. I've already completed bank downloads for last month, so I will see how it goes at the end of this month when they post interest on the CD's. Again, thank you so much for your quick responses and help.
