Revert the "Bill's Tab" "Stack View" to prior behavior

Frankx
Frankx SuperUser ✭✭✭✭✭
Prior to a recent change, the "Stack View" in the "Bills & Income Tab" has historically opened to present the "next due" bill on the top of the stack (i.e. the closest unpaid bill to today's date).  It now displays the furthest out - and last bill due in the range selected of bills to display, which makes no sense, and causes the user to always have to change the view manually to review/pay upcoming bills.  The old behavior was the "correct" behavior for most users (according to many comments from community members.

This is a suggestion that the behavior of the Stack View be reverted to display the "next due" bill on top, once again.

Thanks!

    They could be, but there has been no information posted about this issue here, so to the best of my knowledge, this is not being worked on at this time.

    No change in the behavior despite a couple of updates since the above posts. Sure would be nice to correct this glaring problem ASAP!

    On the Bills and Income Tab I have the Stack View on. It defaults to the last bill due. How do I make the default the first/ next bill due?

    We do not have such an option.  To set the stack to the first/next bill due, I suggest you click on the first/next bill due displayed on the lower portion of the view.

    Hello @Mark Sievertson

    Thank you for taking the time to visit the Community to post your question, although I apologize that you have not received a response.

    I have moved your post to the ongoing Idea to restore the previous behavior of the Bills and Income display.

    To Quicken Tyka: I am confused. This post was opened in response to a change in behavior in Quicken "Stack View." A few months back, immediately following an update, the stack view defaults to the LAST bill due (30 days out) featured large in the middle, not the NEXT bill due (which can be today)! We're all used to looking at the middle, largely displayed bill to remind us what is due next. This change in view is deceptive and can result in missed payments (for me anyway). We are asking firstly for Quicken to acknowledge the change and secondly, for Quicken to fix it! If the post has been moved as you say, where was it moved to? Do you have a link? Thank you!
  • So where is this going? Now 2-3 updates and it is still backwards.
    FIX IT! Please

    Any update here? How about an acknowledgement that you see what we see? It's been almost a year since this was first experienced and about 10 months since first reported and we've heard nothing. A little feedback goes a long way with your customers... thank you.

    Possible Solution that worked for me. This is a rather drastic solution but it worked.

    I installed a new SSD drive in my PC. Of course, I had to reinstall all my apps, including Quicken. Upon reinstall, the stack view was repaired. Please note this SSD is the main storage device that contains the operating system (Windows 10). Best of luck to all.

    PS... the stack view was not repaired by simply uninstalling and reinstalling Quicken. A fresh drive is what did the trick for me.

    :/ Well, that was short lived. As soon as Quicken updated to the latest version (R32.12 Build 27.1.32.12), the stack view went back [removed - disruptive/violation of community guidelines]

    Thanks for the warning. How do people learn about Quicken if comments are removed?
    Will the "Bill Stack" ever get fixed?

    Hi @Mark Sievertson

    First - thanks for your support of this idea. 
    To answer your question - "maybe".  It depends, in part on how many votes this "idea post" garners.  I think we're on the brink at this time, so if you have friends in the community - please urge them to "up-vote" this idea.  The more votes we get, the better the chance that Quicken will return this behavior to what it was.

    I want to see it return to the way it used to be.

    No activity on this topic in a couple months. I believe the issue is defined well enough to understand.

    Is there someone from Quicken who monitors this post and can give us an update on the status of a fix?

    Thank you.

    For what it’s worth, i called and made a complaint about a month and a half ago and I have heard nothing from them.

    It's really irritating when, either purposely or accidentally, some programmer makes a change that screws up the usefulness of a page, but no one is willing to address the problem and correct it. Is Quicken supposed to serve the users? Doesn't seem like it.

    I received an update today (version R37.62, build 27.1.37.62). The stack view is now behaving appropriately. It seems to be fixed!

    As far as I can tell this issue was fixed in R37.25 or thereabouts in Dec. 2021 , so this Idea can be closed.
