= SUMMARY =

In Bob Checkbook’s List of Upcoming Bills and Deposits, regular events set for dates unavailable in future months default to the last day of the month. For example, a bill set 03/31/95 to be paid monthly, will be paid on 04/30/95, 05/31/95, 06/30/95, and so on.

= MORE INFORMATION =

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

 * 1) Open Checkbook and select Bill Basket.
 * 2) Enter a new upcoming bill or deposit.
 * 3) Set the date for 03/31/95. In the Frequency section, choose Monthly. Content of remaining fields can vary. Complete entries.
 * 4) Choose the Change Reminders squishy.
 * 5) Change Days In Advance to 62 and click the Green Check Mark Button.
 * 6) Choose the Enter All Due Bills and Deposits into the Account Book squishy.
 * 7) Type a unique check number and click the Green Check Mark Button twice.
 * 8) Repeat step 7 until you get to “What do you want to do?” balloon.
 * 9) Go to the Account Book.

Look in the Date column of the Account Book. Notice the entries you just entered fall on different dates of the month. Because April has only 30 days, not 31, the entries are paid on the last day of the month.
