investment income not entered in budget in Quicken for Mac

A budget is useless unless it includes all income. Investment income is not included, which may be fine if you don't live on it. Please add investment income to budgets.

    After I acquired a MacBook Pro earlier this year, I converted from Windows Quicken to MAC Quicken.  I had been using Quicken for at least 10 years and had no problems reflecting investment income in my budget.  I was more than surprised, when I discovered it was not supported in the MAC version.  I was told than many others have asked the "how could this be overlooked?"  I was told that it was going to be corrected soon; perhaps in September.  I installed the updates this week and was dismayed to see it was not corrected.  It would be nice to know if a correction for this oversight is imminent.

    Not quite sure why users have to vote on getting investments to be included on the budget feature since the budget is virtually useless if all income streams cannot be captured. This should have been part of the budget from day one. Very disappointed.

    Agreed but at this point it is about helping prioritize feature requests with the limited resources available but the literally hundreds of idea requests.

    Not saying I like it, just stating facts.

    I have the same problem... this has been an outstanding issue for a looooong time... for retired folks it makes actual budgeting very hard (actually not possible).  

    PLEASE PUT THIS IN THE NEXT RELEASE

    Is there actually a way to vote here?

    I chatted with customer support and they said go vote  I'm guessing that there is some inherent problem with the product so they never address this... it seems strange to ignore your customers for such a long time.

    Hello Steve Lewis,

    I apologize for any inconvenience.  We've recently moved to this new Community platform and not all of the conversation data migrated with the correct categories or status's.

    I've moved this post to the Product Ideas for Mac category and enabled the vote option.  You should now see a blue box in the first post with an arrow to click on to add your vote.

    I appreciate your bringing this post to our attention and again apologize for any inconvenience.

    Thank you,

    Sarah
