Pending Transactions

Im so frustrated with the new "Pending Transactions" downloads…. I get blank lines….cannot override the download, duplicates and when entering the date first…when I to to the Payee…..it makes me go back to enter a correct date because it resets what I initially entered to some prehistoric number….. Makes me seriously want to explore other softwares…..despite years of being a loyal customer. Anyone else had these issues…?

    My solution to the pending transaction issues is to download Web Connect (.QFX) files from the websites and NOT USE One Step Update.

    Yes, it not as convenient, but I never have an issue with pending transactions and I also don't reconcile to the online balance, I do it against the "paper statement" (which can also just be the balance cited on the website).

    Thank you…..Ive been using "one step Update" for years…..and I suppose my problem is that "pending transactions" tries to help me too much…..and I lose the control Im used to having….which is frustrating.. I think I will just turn off the option to use this new feature…..and I appreciate your response and input. S
