Updating interest rate / ARM loan

I just reached 5 years on my adjustable rate mortgage, and my interest rate went changed (thankfully down). How do I note this in Quicken, so it knows the correct amount of principle and interest? I have kept the same monthly payment, so I'm paying more in principal.

    I'm in a similar situation - a 5/5 ARM adjusting effective 6/1/21. I went to the link posted above. Maybe, when I created this loan, I didn't create it as an ARM, but in the instructions, it says after going to Loan Details, to click on Adjustable-Rate Loans, but there is no such link on my screen.

    Hello @Dave Brandman

    Thank you for taking the time to visit the Community to ask your question although, I apologize that you have not received a response.

    I would first save a backup. I would then navigate to the loan account and choose "Edit Details." Are you then able to change the interest rate here?

    Please let me know how it goes!
