This is for Quicken 2006 Deluxe.
I had a rollover from my previous employers 401k (with Vanguard) into my currently employers 401k (also Vanguard). I went to download my latest information online and after accepting the downloaded transactions I was told that my holding amounts do not match the ones downloaded and do I want to enter placeholders.
In looking at the placeholder transactions that it wants to add there is something very odd.
Each security that needs the placeholder is listed twice and the shares are inverses of each other.
example:
Fund1: Total Shares Owned: 0 Shares in Quicken: 3513.337 Placeholder entry (missing shares): -3513.337
Fund1: Total Shares Owned: 3513.337 Shares in Quicken: 0 Placeholder entry (missing shares): 3513.337
Fund2: Total Shares Owned: 0 Shares in Quicken: 213.721 Placeholder entry (missing shares): -213.721
Fund2: Total Shares Owned: 240.035 Shares in Quicken: 26.31342 Placeholder entry (missing shares): 213.72157 (this one might be different since it does show shares owned and in Quicken)
I accepted the placeholders and then tried to enter missing transactions or delete ones that seem to be applied incorrectly but I cannot get it settled.
I know that in the past that I have manually entered transaction and have also used web connect to accept or match other transactions.
It seems that some transactions are allocated with one instance of the security and some with another instance of the same type (I could be off here).
Any idea on how to fix this?
