Roger, I still don't understand.
If you set your scheduled transactions to be created 45 days in advance, then your January 1, 2022 transaction will be created in mid-November (with a date of 01-01-2022), and you can change its date directly in the register at any point after that. Why is that any more difficult than what you're asking for?

All my scheduled transactions are set to post on the 1st of the month regardless of the date posted. Not worth the trouble to do more than that for an occasional early payment. Yes, it would be a nice feature that isn't essential and probably not worth the developers' effort. Not sure where to submit an enhancement request. Great program regardless, worth a lot more than it costs. Reminds me of Airforce MAC flights. There are three things you can say about a MAC flight if you get on one, 1. It's a free ride, 2. It's a free ride, and 3. It's a free ride. š Happy new year, Roger -----Original Message----- From: Stephen M.

Need to enter an enhancement request to have that added during the copious amounts of free time the developers have! But, to get around that limitation, I do use the "Create in Advance" so it is in the register early (but for the scheduled date). That way I can just adjust the date on the transaction that is already waiting. That's the only way now to move a scheduled transaction earlier. Now, if you want an extra one, duplicate it from the prior month. --Steve On 12/29/21 16:15, <mailto:rmom...@gmail.com> rmom...@gmail.com wrote: > > Steve, > > Just want the option to trigger a post manually, not a permanent > change in the schedule.
