Moving a transaction to a future date disappears and does not generate a reminder
Hi - I hope someone can help me with this. I've been trying to date transactions is the future to account for the date in which they accrue. For example, I purchase a flight in Jan but I will only be flying on May, so I would change the date of the transaction to a future date and expect to get a reminder associated with the transaction on based on this article.
My efforts have been in vain, and I cannot see to find the transaction nor the reminder based on the new future date. Can someone explain if I am doing something wrong here or it is a bug?

Your situation is similar to the ones raised in the discussions linked below. Maybe something there will help you.
But I doubt it. QS is, at root, a checkbook-type system with some additional capabilities. Its transactions primarily represent money going in and out of (or between) accounts. It isn't really designed for accrual accounting.

@nestorbast, thanks for letting us know about this behavior!
Yes, changing the date of a transaction to a future date should create a Reminder card in Projected Cash Flow and Bills & Income. However, like the bug reported here, I noticed that this is not occurring:
Like the bug when importing future-dated transactions, I see the dot in the Projected Cash Flow graph, but there is no Reminder card created to edit or delete the transaction. The only place I was able to find it was in the Spending Plan. I have reported this additional behavior with editing the date of an existing transaction and will post back with updates!

Thanks Natalie. I didn't realize the transactions can be found in the Spending Plan when they are associated with a planned spending category. At least now I can easily find future dated transactions!
Looking forward to the fix on the reminders2
