Is there a way to enter an income reminder every 4 weeks?

Hello,

I'm a salaried employee getting paid biweekly. However, my life insurance deduction only happens once every only pay period. The result of this is that I every other pay period is different. For example, if we say I make $1,010 every 2 weeks, but every other pay period I have a $10 deduction for life insurance. So would mean my pay stubs look like the following:

Week 1: $1,010

Week 2: $1,000

Week 3: $1,010

Week 4: $1,000 repeat..

Is there any way to have Quicken automatically enter a transaction for me each time I get paid? I tried doing this with setting up an income reminder, but that assumes you get paid the same amount every 2 weeks. (Not going to work here.) I can't use the monthly option because some times I get paid 3 times a month. In the paycheck wizard, there is an option for every 4 weeks, which doesn't see to apply to regular income reminders. I thought about trying to setup a separate income reminder for the $10 difference, but then I don't think the transactions will automatically clear then. Thoughts?

    You need 2 income reminders … one for each amount.

    So I thought about that. But how do I schedule an income reminder every 4 weeks? The only options I see are every 2 weeks and monthly.

    Thanks Rocket J Squirrel! That worked! I didn't think to use the weekly function and just increment it to 4!
