Hi @wadegraham
You can go into Edit > Preferences > Data Entry and Quickfill > put a checkmark on "recall memorized Payees" and Automatically memorize new payees. That will ensure the new payees are generated,
Then I go into Tools > Memorized Payee list > and check on Lock for the Payee set up I want to use repeatedly.
See attached screenshots for additional help.
Let us know if this does the trick.Quicken since Andrew Tobias "Managing Your Money" V-12 (DOS)

Back in the day, Quicken used to be able to use a key word that came in with a transaction to memorize the payee. My transactions change names each month, though they may always have the word "Jones" in them, for instance, if a payment is made to the Jones Boutique. For the month of May it might import as "5/6/21 Jones Boutique" and for another month it may import as 8/21/21 Jones Boutique Midlothian". Quicken can't seem to function when a key word for recognizing the transaction is needed, so it can be categorized automatically. Why is this so hard to make happen in Quicken?0
