Accepting New Online Tranactions - Interest jaygreg 07-13-2006

I'm green to on-line banking. I just downloaded a transaction from my bank
that wasn't in my register; interest. It was called "Interest Paid" but it's
actually interest I've earned and has been carried on my books as simply
"Interest Earned" with all the proper tax links. When I explored changing
the name, I clicked the button for the payee next to "Interest Paid" and saw
the "Renaming Rules" link. Went there but all were payees for my bills. Not
sure how to handle this. I'd like to have "Interest Paid" recognized as
"Interest Earned". Would someone take a moment to steer me in the right
direction.

Interest Paid or Earned is a point of view term, from your point of view it
is Earned but most likely from your banks point of view it's Paid. You were
on the right track with the Renaming Rules, create one that renames the
payee to Earned.

You can add a renaming rule for any payee name that appears in a
downloaded transaction; just click the "New" button, enter the
payee name you want the downloaded payee changed to, make sure
the middle drop down contains the appropriate requirement (maybe
you only want the rename to take place if the downloaded payee
name *exactly* matches the search text, as opposed to *contains"
the search text), the enter the text you want the rule to look
for to change.

You can actually have multiple rules to change multiple possible
downloaded payee names to the same Quicken payee name by using
the "Add new item" option. And you can also utilize "memo"
field contents to match on for the rename.

Renaming rules were not introduced until Q2005.
