Bills & Income in Quicken Mobile/Web not syncing with Quicken on Desktop

I have noticed that Bills & Income Reminders are no longer syncing with Quicken Desktop since around March 2022 or earlier. Previously syncing worked perfectly and you could enter a bill & income reminder transaction either in the desktop or mobile and they would sync perfectly and point to the next scheduled date for that bill reminder transaction. I have tried resetting my cloud account but nothing works.

It looks like you can create a reminder transaction in Quicken mobile/Web but it does not sync with the Quicken desktop and vice versa,

Is this a known problem? Is a fix in the works? If there is a workaround or a solution please post and let me know. Much appreciated.

    Hello @Gautam Tupil and @Dewdropin

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community to tell us about your issue, though I apologize that you are experiencing this.

    If you haven't already, I suggest resetting your cloud data from your Quicken desktop program and see if that may make a difference. However, before doing so, first, verify that the Dataset name and the File name match each other identically by navigating to Edit > Preferences > Quicken ID & Cloud Accounts (see below). 



    If they do not match, please click Edit dataset name and change the Dataset name to match the File name exactly the same (do not copy the file extension: ".QDF"). 

    Then, click OK in the preferences window and proceed to save a backup (just in case). From there, please follow the steps below to reset your cloud data.
    1. Sign out of your Quicken Mobile/Web app(s)
    2. On your desktop program go to Edit
    3. Preferences...
    4. Mobile & Web
    5. Make sure sync shows it's ON and click on Reset your cloud data 
    6. On the following screen you can leave the preselected option for "No, just reset my Cloud data", type Yes in the entry field to confirm, and click Reset
    7. Wait for the sync reset to finish
    8. Navigate to the Mobile & Web dropdown menu 
    9. Select Cloud Sync to resync your data and to make sure no errors occur
    10. Wait for it to finish syncing 
    11. Sign back in on your Quicken Mobile/Web app(s)
    Once that is done, see if the issue still persists.

    Let me know how it goes!

    I had done a cloud reset before to try and resolve the problem and it did not work. However, I again followed the instructions listed above and reset my cloud account and it does not work. I hope this issue can be fixed. Thanks.

    I too have had this issue since March 2022, still not resolved. I called tech support, spent hours on the phone, done all the steps above, nothing worked. It is even an issue with a new Quicken file, so the issue is not with my data but with the software. This issue has been reported, no indication as to when it will be resolved. Would have thought the latest updates would have resolved this issue, but it has not.

    I have the same issue. I just recently purchased a subscription for windows. I’m still in the 30 days trial period. Please fix this or I’ll be forced to cancel. Thank you.

    Looks like I jumped the gun. Re-syncing did work for me. My apologies!

    Latest Quicken Desktop Canadian Version Update - R45.18 fixed the issue. I am now able to see my scheduled transactions in Quicken Mobile.

    Scheduled transactions appear in Quicken Mobile but I found that they do not sync when each scheduled transaction is marked as completed between quicken desktop and quicken mobile. I have to manually go to either the desktop version or mobile and skip the scheduled transaction.

    Quicken can you please look into this issue and resolve it so that these completed scheduled transactions sync properly

    Ever since they came out with syncing reminders, it's not worked properly. See posts here: https://community.quicken.com/discussion/7910020/cloud-sync-from-quicken-for-windows-to-quicken-mobile-advanced-bills-by-one-period and here: https://community.quicken.com/discussion/7923180/why-do-bill-and-reminder-dates-change
    Random changing dates, categories, etc. Validate file/reset cloud data doesn't fix it and it happens with new files, too.
