Quicken 2006 deluxe - problem with receipts

May 28, 2006 3 Replies

I had started attached copies of receipts in Quicken - very handy. After several months somehow I lost the association of the receipt (in the attach folder) with the line item expense. When scrolling through a register I got a message saying no receipt was available but the attach folder was still there. I had to delete the folder and start over to attach the receipts.



What could have happened? I back up to flash drives and the attach folders are also backed up, and when I back up over an existing file, I think new receipts are added to that directory. I wonder if somehow I should only back up after I delete an existing file rather than just overwrite and whether this could somehow have caused the issue.



Any thoughts from anyone?

Not a reply to Alan. I modified some Paycheck entries for my flexible spending account. When I saved the change in the register, my associated paycheck stubs no longer show. I assume they are still in the folder, but I have not had time to check. So now I have three years of paycheck stubs to re-attach. Bugs like this defeats the purpose of keeing pdf copies outside of Quicken.
