OK, I have to set the stage here...
I used to have my paycheck direct-deposited into three accounts. Checking at Credit Union, money market at Bank, and Roth IRA at bank. None had automatic updates... I manually entered each transaction and used Scheduled Transactions for the deposits. Everything worked fine.
Then, I replaced the money market with a savings account, got rid of the direct deposit to the IRA, and set up a recurring transaction at my bank to fund the IRA. I also got Update Now working, so I could just get transactions from the bank over the Internet. I also got rid of the scheduled transactions, because (supposedly) the transactions would show up in the download.
Here's where things get a little weird. I downloaded all transactions for the savings account, and got all but the transactions from savings to the IRA. They just weren't there. On the paycheck side, the direct deposit to savings was not there. It was weird... all deductions, etc. showed up. The gross amount was right, all of the deductions were right, the net deposit to checking was right. But the amount that was supposed to be going to savings was just invisibly subtracted. When I manually added them, they appeared as second transactions in savings.
First, by deleting the savings account entirely, then re-adding it, I was able to get the transfers to the IRA to show up. They always showed up in the IRA account, just not in savings. But I was stuck with two copies of each direct deposit to savings. So I deleted the paychecks, copied another instance, pasted it in, and edited for the correct date, etc. Now, I wind up with two of each transfer into the IRA. I cannot "match" them. In the Savings account, they'r eshowing up as expenses, not transfers, even though I hunted down and deleted every renaming rule that might have anything to do with them.
So, to recap, where it looks like I am now is downloaded transactions from savings to IRA show up incorrectly in the savings account and show up twice in the IRA account. Everything i do to try to fix this winds up breaking something else. I'm close to the point of just creating a new Quicken file and starting my entire financial history from scratch from maybe the first of last month and give up the several years worth of data in the existing file. All I can think is, there's some kind of corruption in it somewhere.
Is there a way to fix or recover this?
