Post subject:  Changing the date of a scheduled transaction

I have about 25 monthly scheduled transactions... and on occasion, the payment date changes. My experience so far has been that when I change the date of an scheduled transaction in the schedule section of CBP, it modifies the date for all past occurrences of that scheduled transaction.

How can I change the date for future occurrences only? My workaround has been to create a new scheduled transaction and end the old one. Surely there's a better way...

I learned that the hard way. Delete and recreate is the only safe way to do it AFAIK.

Duplicating the Schedule and then changing the Start Date on the duplicate would save a bit of time versus a total creation of the Scheduled Entry in question. To do that, choose 'Duplicate Schedule...' from the Schedule menu at the top of the screen.

Why not just allow a date change going forward? Like the OS X calendar app does when you change a recurring appointment... it simply prompts you for "this time or all future events"?

We may looking in to adding that to a future release. Basically, it was already on the feature request list with 5 votes, so I bumped it up to 6. Thanks!
