Posted Jan 08, 2015 in: repeating: correcting for weekends
Score: 0
There is a chronic problem with recurring appointments and there may be a solution, but it is not clear to me.
Here is the problem: We (Everyone)have/has recurring monthly bills and filings that must be paid or filed during weekdays, when businesses or bank are open. If I set the due date for the 5th of the month, every month, there will be times when the 5th is on a Saturday or Sunday. Banks, governments, and businesses will treat a payment or a filing on a Saturday or Sunday at a payment or filing made on a Monday (the first business day), so if we use the recurring due date, we are going to have a late payment or late filing problem. You also have a frequent situation where something has a recurrent due date that lands on a weekend and the due date is extended to the following Monday by a rule, contract, or law. Examples: Federal Taxes and court filings. Manually correcting for weekends, for recurring tasks, is very time consuming and error prone. Is there a way to deal with these recurrent task weekend problems? |
