I noticed I can do fundamental data searches for ex-dividend dates, but can I search for dividend pay dates under the conditions tab?
Thanks.

Using WealthScript code, you can easily do that with the help of Morningstar Fundamental Provider: extended Dividend data (see code example). It returns payable dates in one of its properties although the format couldn't be utilized in Rule-based strategies. Code requires the MS123 Extra Fundamental/News providers library installed and the fundamental items collected in order to get "[ms] dividend" (i.e. check the appropriate fund. provider in the DM and perform an update before using).

One more example:
