Running Windows XP Pro Quicken 2008 Home & Business
I created a new account to handle my wife's new 401K plan, that we were forced to transfer in to at the beginning of the year (sound familiar). I created the account and thought all was good until a few paychecks have transferred in. The "Action" is "XIn instead of what I'm use to seeing... "BoughtX". So I looked into this further since I really need the BoughtX as the correct type. This will allow me to track the transfers with an associated price per share.
So I tried to create another account and found that I have to tag the 401K as a specific Mutual Fund (or stock). Now comes the confusion. To create this, you must know the Ticker. This fund does not have a Ticker because it not really a Mutual Fund but a Fund that keeps track of Units. Hope this makes sense. So I'm caught in a "Catch 22". How do I get around this Ticker issue so that I can create the account as a single Mutual Fund... even though my fund is really not that type? If I can get around this issue, I believe I can track each weeks transfer with the appropriate "Units per Share".
