Scheduled Investment Transaction Groups not being entered

rsohn

I have had an Investment Transaction Group for many years that I use for 401(k) contributions. It is scheduled for every 2 weeks, automatic entry. Starting in late May/early June, I noticed it was no longer entering the transactions on the scheduled dates.

When l look in Bills and Incomes Reminders, I see that the due date gets reset (as if the transaction group were processed). But the next date is 2 to 3 months in the future. (when I first notice this in June, the next schedule date was sometime in late August, When I notice it today -- July 3 -- the next schedule date was October 20.)

If I edit the transaction group to try to reset the due date to today (July 3), the group gets scheduled for July 31 (4 weeks later). If I go back and edit the Transaction Group again, it shows the due date as August 14 (6 weeks later). When I open the transaction to check the settings, the due date is advance another 2 weeks, even if I didn't change anything.

I thought about trying to recreate the Scheduled Investment Transaction Group, in case something had gotten corrupted, but the button for the Investment Type of transaction is greyed out.

Hi @rsohn,

Sorry to hear that you are having issues with your "scheduled transaction group". 

While I haven't experienced the behaviour you described, it does sound to me like there is some type of corruption involved.  So, it may be easier if you do set up a new one.

On your last paragraph - where you say "but the button for the Investment Type of transaction is greyed out" - keep in mind that you have to enter an investment type account name in the "Account:" field in order to activate that button.

Let me know how that works out for you or if you have any followup questions.
