Budget dashboard - how to change from current month to current QTR (if possible)

bg56

Windows 11, Chrome, Quicken Deluxe… My dashboard is showing budget for current month and I'd prefer to have current QTR. The settings for the budget dashboard widget only change the categories in the dashboard view but not date range. Any ideas if this can be customized?

Thanks

OK, I'm a little confused here … maybe I need more coffee … 😁

In my Quicken Classic there is no Budget dashboard in the Home tab's Dashboard view. And I can find no setting to add one.
However, in the Planning tab's Budgets view there are two views you can switch between: Graph View and Annual View. These are "traditional Quicken views" and not Dashboards. (Annual view requires Deluxe feature level or higher)

In the Graph View you can select from several date range options:

Isn't that what you're asking for?
If not, please show an image snapshot of your "dashboard" in question.

If you are using the Annual view there isn't a quarterly view, only monthly.

Hello @UKR,

The Budget can be added to the Dashboard in a custom view when the Classic Dashboard toggle is turned on which is what I believe the OP is referring to. However, after adding the Budget in a custom view of the Dashboard, when you look at the options, it doesn't appear to give the option to change it from monthly to quarterly.

Hope this clarifies that for you!
