Monthly Bill Reminders Skip a Month

I am having the same issue as the existing Monthly Bill Reminders Skip a Month discussion. My credit card reminders skip a month. I will fix them and then run a One Step Update and then they are incorrect again. The fix for the other discussion was to disable Sync for Mobile and Web apps but mine is already disabled.

    Hello @blzimmerman2,

    Thank you for letting us know you're encountering this issue. To clarify, is this the discussion you're referring to?

    https://community.quicken.com/discussion/7897986/monthly-bill-reminders-skip-a-month

    To help troubleshoot, please provide more information. When did you first notice this issue? You mentioned this is happening specifically with credit card reminders. Is this affecting all of them, or only some? Are these manual reminders, or are they linked to an online biller? Are the reminders set to automatically enter into the register, or be entered manually? How far in advance are they set to remind you (3 days, 7 days, a month, etc.)?

    I look forward to your response!

    I think I might have finally gotten it fixed! I have dealt with this for months, if not years, very annoying. So the AI help had me run a validation (off file tab) after saving a backup of course. Then I went to the "skipped" bills and edited and it does give the same annoying "you can't edit a bill before the most recent date" yada, yada error message, but then when I did save it (I ended up putting one day earlier in the month so it would save), the bills are now in January under due and not skipped. SO, I think that finally fixed mine, I hope it will work for you.

    I've had this same issue for well over a year. It used to only affect a single bill, but over time it's become nearly all my bills. I "Edit this instance and all future instances" to set the correct due date to the current month and the next time I start Quicken, my bills are set to the next month. I tried making a backup and then running the validation, but the very next start showed all my bills due in the following month. I've removed all "link biller" features, so now it's only a basic reminder. Very frustrating that such a simple feature is completely broken for me. Please help!
