Add a Last Business Day Option When Scheduling a Reminder

Michael 49

When setting up a recurring income (dividend) reminder, why isn't there a last 'business' day option?

Quicken for Windows 10 (Canada)
Year: 2019 Version: R25.24 Build: 27.1.25.24 Edition: Canada
Browser: Firefox version 76.0.1 (64-bit)
Windows 10 Home Version: 1909 OS Build:18363.836

Given you can only specify last day, dividend for May would appear with Sunday's date of 31May, whereas it should appear with Friday's date of 29May.

There already is an Idea post on adding new scheduling frequencies, for both Quicken Mac and Quicken Windows:

It's a lengthy discussion with a number of suggestions including workday or businessday.

Hi UKR,

Thanks Chris_QPW. I saw that on 30May however, when I clicked on it at the time, it did increase number but then immediately returned to the previous count. When I went in today, it incremented OK and stayed incremented. 'm not included in the count.

If you click the triangle twice,  slowly or double-click, the count will be incremented and then decremented. For every click by a user, a transaction is sent to the server to toggle your vote on or off. This may take a couple of seconds to register.
Check the color of the triangle. If it's grey, you haven't voted (or removed your vote). If it's black, you have voted.
