@Clark_B Maybe I wasn't clear.  The payment is saved after I create it from the Reminders List.  The template is not clearing from the Reminders List, so it looks like it still needs to be created.

I'm having the same problem, which is this: In the "Reminders List", I see the reminder; then I click "Edit and Create" to record a payment and save it, successfully. The problem is that after I complete that task of recording a payment from that screen, the "Reminders List" never updates. It continues to show that reminder as if I had never taken action on it. How can I fix this to make the "Reminders List" update?

@maidenphp  - It is still happening.  Created payments are still on the list after I edited and recorded

Hello, @maidenphp!

It seems you've posted a similar post to which my colleague has answered. Feel free to check his suggested resolution through this link: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/other-questions/re-recurring-transactions-reminder... 

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have more concerns about recurring transactions and reminders. I'd be glad to assist you.

@AnneMariee If you had read all of the posts, you would have realized the response from your colleague did  not address the problem.  The suggested resolution is of no help!!

@AnneMariee @maidenphp @Clark_B  The other issue happening with the Reminder's List is that when I have to manually clear a paid item off of the Reminder's List, the "previous date" does not update in the Recurring Transaction List.  I suppose this is happening because I have to "skip" the payment to clear the item from the Reminder's List.  My templates are listed by the next date due and the previous date is listed, but now all of my transaction dates are incorrect.

@AnneMariee @Clark_B I have sent Feedback numerous times and this issue is still happening.  Of course, when sending feedback, your customer never knows if the feedback is actually read.  This problem dates back to August.  I know this dates back to August, because the "previous date" on several of my recurring templates is August.  The previous date does not update when the item is "skipped" even though I have created it.  I have to skip the task to clear it out of the reminders list.  How many more months is it going to take to get the issue resolved?  Please help!!

@AnneMariee @Clark_B I have sent many feedbacks and nothing seems to work.  Created reminders are not clearing off the Reminders List, nor is the Previous Date being updated because I have to "skip" the use of the template to clear it off the Reminders List.  This has been happening since August.  Help!  Has there been any attempt at the resolution of this matter?

@AnneMariee @IrizA @Clark_B Any idea when this issue might be fixed.  It stopped working in August.

Thanks for getting back to us, @pbb2. Let me chime-in on this conversation and give updates.

I can confirm that, in August, there were users who experienced issues with recurring templates failing to update to the next date after the reminder date had passed. This investigation (INV-95280) has recently reopened as users are experiencing the same problem. Although there's no specific date for a fix, please be assured that our product engineers are working diligently to fix the issue.
