My father throws out his bills

embra2jr

My father throws out his mail (he is elderly and gets confused) He still wants to get hard copies. Is there a way I can set up something in Quicken that will notify me if a monthly bill (ie. credit card) did not have a expected transaction in Quicken for the previous month?

That's what Scheduled Reminders are there for. They tell you about upcoming bills in Quicken.

If you can, try to redirect the bills to be sent to your own mailbox instead of your father's. Most companies will also allow you to change to paperless billing. You get an email when a new bill is available, log on to their website and then download and print the bill at your convenience.
