Fix the reconciliation date issue [Edited]

With all the updates you do, why can't you fix this simple thing?

Yes, I know I can shift H to correct the dates, but why should I have to?

Months have set end dates, so program them in.

[Removed-Third-Party Software] does not have this issue, so do whatever that program does.

Thanks,

Long-time Quicken and [Removed-Third-Party Software] user.

    @brett5355 Not all banks issue statements on precisely month-end. Many end their statements on the same day every month, or on the last business day of a month.

    So, your request is simply not practical.

    And if your bank truly issued a statement dated 2/28 (as shown in your graphic), they're an anomaly as that day was a Saturday.

    This has nothing to do with a bank statement. All statements from any bank or broker I deal with, and there are many, uses the last day of the month as the month end. Again [Removed-Third-Party Software] always has the last day of the month in their reconciliation.

    @brett5355 Your title and your example were about reconciliation … which is based upon info from your bank of which the statement is the only reliable source. THAT's when it's in writing.

    Anything/everything else is subject to change until the statement is issued.

    And, even your graphic says "ending statement date".

    So, you appear to be waffling re: your complaint.

    I am not talking about a downloaded reconciliation but the process in Quicken where you do a reconciliation based on the bank statement at the end of the month. I am consistent when I say that some months the end of the month is the wrong date as I show in the picture. I am not waffling one bit.

    I have NEVER in 40+ years in banking known of a bank statement to be dated as-of a weekend or holiday date … no matter what the last day of the month is.

    Show us the top (date info) of that 2/28/26 stmt (referenced in your graphic) and prove me wrong.
