Deleting Future Reminder (not next reminder) deletes previous reminders

I have a situation this month (which I can work around, so it's not urgent) where I have:

-A Weekly Payment reminder (recurring series)

-The first 3 occurences of the month 'should' remain

-But because of travel, I knew i wasn't going to be paying the next 2 after that

So, I dismissed the 'future' (say, march 11th and March 18th) reminders

But, when I did that, the Feb 18, Feb 25 and Mar 4 reminders (which i didn't dismiss) disappeared. This happened because when I dismissed the later reminders, it set the 'next occurence' to the week after that, bypassing the payments that should have remained (essentially deleting the reminders).

the bug: Before moving the next occurence forward, it should make sure there are no -other- previous reminders.

    I've noticed that but I am pretty sure that the warning box tells you that this and previous reminders will be deleted, when you try to dismiss a reminder that isn't the next one. For better or for worse.

    Hello @RobWilk,

    Thanks for reaching out! As @EL1234 mentioned previously, this is expected behavior when dismissing future reminders in Quicken Simplifi. A dialog box appears when dismissing a future reminder, explaining that earlier reminders will also be dismissed.
