Hi Everyone,
I was a Money user before and want to see if I can do this in quicken with the quicken bill pay service. In Money in its Bill and Deposit Screen (Equivalent to Quickens Income and Bill reminder section I think) when setting up my bills I could select electronic payment as the method. When I wanted to send a bill payment in I could select it from the list and money had a button (Pay Online) I could click and the bill would be placed in an area called Electronic Payment (I think this must be quicken Online Center equivalent). I could then select it and click a send button that was available in that screen. It would then send and also be enter into the appropriate register. Is quickens method similar?
In Quicken (bill and reminder list) I chose Quicken Bill Pay as the method and then filled out all the information in the payee dialog box it brought up (address, account number etc.) I chose to be reminded three days before the bill was due. When I get that reminder at the bottom of the register and click to enter it- will the transaction be entered into my register and also be listed in the appropriate area of the online center - ready to be sent? I called the quicken bill pay service and tried to get the answer to this. They were really nice, but said I could probably get a better answer from the program support. They said they usually tell everyone to use the online center to enter and send bills, but what I described above is really they way I want to do it, so thought I'd ask here. Sorry for the long post, and thanks for your help.
