FEATURE REQUEST: Scheduled Frequency - 3rd Wed of Month

FEATURE REQUEST: Scheduled Frequency - 3rd Wed of Month

Postby dpjh70100 » Sat Aug 21, 2010 2:11 pm

I love your software, but I've run across a missing option in the Frequency drop-down for scheduled transactions. My wife's disability check comes on the 3rd Wednesday of every month. I realize I could just mark that transaction as Monthly and manually adjust it each moth, but it would be nice to have YNAB look at the date I entered for the next occurrence, determine what day of the week it is, determine what week of the month it is, and dynamically add an option to the Frequency drop-down that matches that. For example, "3rd Wednesday of Month" or "2nd Tuesday of Month".

Again, I love YNAB, especially the new iPhone app--it's made huge difference for me.

I have my doubts as to if this will ever be implemented as I have requested it since the inception of YNAB for mac and it has yet to happen.... I asked the question last night during the web forum and never got a response..guess the math involved within an algorithm is too complex and or not enough people have the desire or need for it!

It's something we might get to in the future, but it hasn't ever been a higher priority than getting things like cloud sync and improved reports which will help most users of the software.
Unfortunately, we can't just add every feature as we've only got a limited number of programmers and so we need to prioritise for those features that help the most users.

Hello,

I also would like to request this option for choosing something like 2nd or 3rd Wed of the month. I've been using a fairly low-end financial program called CheckBook and it has this feature, so it seems to be something that should be not all that complicated to add.

Thank you for considering it.
