Scheduling payments of variable amounts

Feb 01, 2011 3 Replies

I have a monthly bill that is dependent on the number of weeks in a month and when they fall. We have an agreement where April, July, September, and December are slightly higher payments than the rest of the months.



Is there a way of setting up a single payment but increasing it for the higher months? I see I can edit the immediate scheduled transaction but is there a way of editing specific future transactions?



Thanks

No; not when they're all part of the same series.

But you could set up 12 yearly scheduled transactions, one for each month.

If you know the exact amounts you can set up multiple scheduled payments.

If you don't know the exact amounts, or if you don't want the above, you can set the advance timing for the scheduled payments to appear in your register, then edit them as you see fit. For instance my quarterly property taxes I enter a year in advance, and edit them as the final tax bill arrives.

I ended up making it a VARIABLE amount with no estimated amount. Then, I put the payment schedule by month in the memo field. It should prompt me for the correct amount. That works, I guess.
