Greetings Group: Got a problem you may be able to help me with
(Microsoft hasn't). From time to time, when I download the info from
my bank, I will get a posting that is wrong. The dollar amount is
correct, but the payee is not. For example, today, my wife made an ATM
withdrawal. Tonight, I downloaded the bank info and the information
that was posted listed the payee as a local pizza parlor. I'm not sure
if I am clearly stating this. Let me try another way. If there is a
transaction that is NOT listed in the register by me, when I download
the banks information, then Money will arbitrarily assign a payee. If
the amount is reasonable, I might not notice it, but the other day, my
natural gas bill, which is a fixed amount every month, was identified
as an ATM withdrawal. What caught my eye was the fact that the amount
was for $68.15. I can not do a withdrawal from my ATM for an amount
like that so I corrected it manually. But then, when I went back and
looked over some of my other entries, I found similar mistakes. If I
have not made an entry in the Money register prior to downloading the
bank info, then Money will assign a payee, with no consistency as to
who the payee is. It might be the gas company one day, the pizza
parlor the next. Does any one have any ideas on how to correct this?
Thanks for your time,
