Automatically assign a TAG to loan principle and interest?

From my research and checking other posts here I don't see a way of doing this but I want to set up a loan where the interest and principle are assigned a tag. I can do that with the escrow but it looks like I will have to manually add the tags every month.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

I think I would set up a memorized transaction with splits, transfers and tags (I hope that's possible). Then have the transaction automatically entered (I do it 30 or more days in advance so I can see how the wind blows). You likely have to edit the amounts each time when you know them.

But then, I haven't tried ...

Not sure why you want to do this.

I don't believe there is any way to use a Loan Wizard generated transaction to assign a tag to the principal payment*.

But you can assign a tag to the Loan Wizard transaction interest category.

To address an existing loan:

Net Worth > (Choose Loan) > Edit Payment

In the "Category for Interest" field, key a forward slash at the end of the mortgage interest category, followed by the tag name.

[* In the most recent versions of Quicken, you can use Find/Replace to retag transactions, including "transfers" in split transactions, such as the transfers to pay the mortgage principal. So you can tag your principal payments - en masse, after the fact - using Find/Replace.]
