MS Money 2006 doesn't show an ePay that I entered

I just entered an electronic payment into Microsoft Money 2006 Premium.
When I did I got some odd behavior. First, it gave me a confirmation box
saying that it had submitted the payment.

Next it put me back into the same dialog box to enter the electronic
payment, but for next month (August), not this month.

Third the electronic payment doesn't even show up in the account's ledger.

Fourth I got a message box saying that the account was out of sync and that
it would be corrected once I got out of MS Money and got back into it, or
something to that effect. I did get out of MS Money and got back into it,
but I still don't see that electronic payment in the ledger and the Bills
Summary page shows that I don't owe until August.

What's going on here? What do I believe?? Will MS Money, all by itself,
start submitting electronic payments repeatedly until it has emptied my
checking account?

I'm seeing some weird behavior to with epays - all of a sudden several
of my payee's information is missing - been using these for months
with no problem before now.

Jim,
If the missing information for your payees is just the account number/ID,
then reference the "Important notice" in the "What's new" section on the
Money home page.
If you don't see it, make sure the "What's new in Microsoft Money" item is
added to the home page by customizing content, and make sure to have Money
"Update Now" so that it does get that "Important notice"

Basically, you'll just need to re-enter your payees' account numbers/IDs.

Thanks Mark, that explained it. I didn't have the what's new module on
my home page so I missed that. Thanks again

Jim,

I just checked the relevant account in MSN Bill Pay, and it does have the
correct account information in it. Furthermore, I also see that it has the
amount of the bill pay entered, with the payment still pending (it would
have been anyway). So, now I am confused about how MS Money 2006 Premium
will handle it. Since it isn't aware of the payment, will it, at the point
that the payment gets submitted, automatically bring that down into MS
Money? Or will I have to enter it myself?

Rod
