I have once again had to manually update my 4 Edwards Jones IRA accounts to get the correct balances.  There are numerous problems I have been able to trace after having done this for the past 3 years.

- Quicken seems to use something other than stock/fund symbols for posting updates.  I have balances in the wrong funds, transactions posted to the wrong funds, etc.  There are even entries labeled "Unidentified Security" created however when I enter them manually, all securities are found.
- Quicken does not attempt to reconcile share or market value differences.  This would certainly help identify where the problems are
- When deleting and re-establishing the accounts (which I have found to be the easiest and fastest way to correct the mess that built over the prior 12 months), the first two items on this list compound the problem.
- The "holdings" shows all holdings in all accounts rather than the holdings within the account you are working - again, making it hard to correct the problems.

I have two EJ stock accounts that seem to work fine however the IRA accounts are a complete disaster...

    Windows 10 on the subscription service so it should always be the most current version, I think. Again, this has been a problem for a few years now and I’ve always maintained the latest versions of Quicken. Even deleting and re-adding the accounts does not work as Quicken limits the number of transactions it downloads and does not begin with a balance for everything that occurred up to then.
