Uncategorized Transaction Missing Actual Data
Unknown
Member
I think I have to build a new file. 3 hours on the phone with Customer Support Yesterday. 300K in Uncategorized transactions. 100ishK on 4/18/18. I can find this data information only in the Income and Expenses ALL categories and accounts only but there is no supporting data to delete and reenter the transaction that I can find. I can narrow the date window to identify the date. This data does not show up AT ALL in an itemized transaction report. Does ANYONE have ANY idea how I can fix this without recreating my file from scratch? (This data is in my backups also, I already looked) I've mongo patched backwards. I don't know what else to try. I have a lot of investing accounts set up in Quicken. Will lose all that data or start over.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Placeholder Entries CAN CREATE Uncategorized Transactions YOU CAN'T FIND.
I almost deleted my entire Quicken Database. I thought the Data was corrupt because everyone I worked with told me to delete and clean my software and then reinstall from scratch (3 times in 2 days now) and I have validated and supervalidated and Mondo patched and backuped and restored and..... I JUST FIGURED IT OUT! Hubby did some "call" and "put" action in our investment accounts and I couldn't figure out how to get Quicken to properly enter the transactions. So I entered placeholders for my problem in hopes to fix at some point in the future. My reporting was off in the Income and Expense report for Magic UNCATEGORIZED transactions I COULD NOT FIND. So the customer support had me export my data yesterday so I could import my data and start a new file, warning me that my investment data would not import properly and that corrupt data would disappear and I would have to recreate lots of information in various accounts. When I exported the data, I got an error report that said "these transactions don't calculate like the data downloaded.... hmmmm..... and it told me which account created this error report. I went to that account just now and deleted all the placeholder entries and WALA!! my mystery uncategorized EVERYTHING that I was unable to find went away like that!!!! Years ago I had mystery uncategorized transactions and had to delete and reenter transactions to clean up the data. I'm just sharing in case you have a problem like mine. Deleting placeholders and cleaning up the data is a LOT easier than recreating an entire file with years of history. Have a great day!! I'm personally CELEBRATING!!!!0 -

if you don't already, set Quicken to create automatic and manual backups. Computer crashes, viruses, malware incomplete patches, etc. can render the data file unusable and unrepairable.0

I do. But the problem was unidentified. It was in my backups too. I wasn't focused on what I'm focused on until I could budget mobile (again)0
