Memorize question

davecreasy

When I try to memorize a payee that was previously memorized, the category field doesn't update to the new category that I memorized. Can this be resolved?

Have you checked the Memorized Payee List to confirm the category is not added to the payee?

I did not! Thanks for the tip. I'll see if that works.

@davecreasy Also, note that you can have multiple entries for a memorized payee, one for each payee/category combination.

Yes - I now see that. I'm going through the list and cleaning it up.

My other issue is the "find" function. I've used Quicken for 20+ years. Previously when I clicked on Find, the field that I was in auto-filled the window that I wanted to search for. Now I need to type in what I want to look for. Is there a fix? This is painful and time consuming.

Thanks again

@davecreasy Yes, I did participate in that discussion, I'm still using Quicken 2017 where Find still populates the search fields, but Find and Replace does not, so I have the best of both worlds now, when did they change that?

My biggest complaint with Find/Find All and Find and Replace is that there is no time constraint, I usually want to see more recent transactions, not every one from the beginning of time, which can make the query slow.

@Rich_M have you tried the search field in the All Transactions register? You can specify the date range there. 

All Transactions link is at the top of the Account Bar.

@mshiggins Yes, but I don't use that register much.  I generally don't use Find much either, my go to for this type of searching is reports, just putting my 2 cents in to get in the fray.  I especially like to use the report buttons in the payee and category fields, where you can quickly get a report for the last 12 months, without typing anything.
