Problem with sorting by Return % YTD

Myrna Larson

I'm running Quicken 2016 Premier, R8, Windows 10. I have investment 3 accounts. One of them has 3 unique securities, the other 9 or 10 securities are common to all 3 accounts. On the Portfolio screen, if I group by account, and sort by the Return (%) YTD column, all is well. When I group by security, the unique securities are not in the right order. Bug???

I am seeing similar behavior with QW2014.  Indeed, it appear to me that grouping by account may be the only one that consistently comes out correct.  

Yes, I'd say a bug.

Could be the issue you are seeing only has to do with those unique securities held in different accounts? That is in my case the sort works correctly but I don't have the same security in different accounts. Is that your point?

I just now tested this in QW2016 R8 with one security held in multiple accounts and the bug only occurs for that multiply held security.  That is "unique securities" (only held in one account) sort properly.  The security held in multiple accounts,however, is out of order from the rest.

I suppose that is the same thing I am seeing.  The first four in my screen shot are one-account holdings.  The last two (out of order) are multi-account holdings.
