SYMPTOMS
In the Bills place of Money 99 and Money 98, the Payment Calendar in Money
4.0 and 5.0, and Future Transactions in Money 3.0, the date of a
transaction scheduled near the end of the month advances to the end of the
month.
If a bill is scheduled for the 28th, 29th or 30th of the month, the date of
the bill advances to the end of month, after a month where that date is the
last day of the month.
CAUSE
When a bill occurs on the last day of the month, it is associated with the
end of month in future occurrences.
For example, you enter a bill due on 12/28/96. It would be scheduled for
12/28, 1/28, 2/28, 3/31 and 4/31. After 2/28 the bill would become
associated with an end of month payment (3/31 and 4/31.)
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
WORKAROUND
To keep a constant date for a bill due near the end of the month, set the
date of the bill to the 27th of the month.
