Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue
  • I will be providing steps how to reproduce the bug (in most cases this will also mean uploading a demo budget file)

What happened?

When scheduling a recurring transaction, starting 30 November 2024 and repeating every 3 months it is skipping the February transaction.

Strangely, it works fine when you select 2 months (correctly shows next transaction in January), and it's fine when you select 4 months (correctly shows next transaction in March). Yet when I select 3 months, it shows the next transaction in May (skipping the February transaction).

I've just realised my above screenshots show the 30th (which doesn't exist in Feb) but the issue still remains when I check the 'Move scheduled after/before weekend'. It skips the Feb transaction regardless of if I select before/after.

If I change the date to the 28th repeating every 3 months it works fine, it appears to be due to the first transaction being on the 30th and repeating every 3 months. How should this be handled?

Can you do last day of month instead of the 30th?

That works thank you.
It's not 100% correct as I'm billed every 3 months on the 30th, so Nov 30, Feb 28, May 30, etc.
Using last day of the month will make it off by a day sometimes (e.g. May 31), but its not a big deal.

Thanks @youngcw
