All of a sudden Quicken can't add (shares transferred from one account to another)

terpsucka

I closed an account, and transferred the assets to another account. I had to manually create a "Shares transferred to another account" transaction so I could maintain my cost basis. Everything is correct on the "from" account, but the holdings in the "to" account are all messed up. For instance, it says my total cost basis is negative, even though the cost basis on every lot is positive. There doesn't seem to be any way to manually modify the lots on the "new account", and the lots on the "old account" are correct. What can I do to fix this?

Nevermind, fixed it by deleting everything from both accounts relating to transferring that fund and adding it again on the "old account", and now both are right. I don't know what I did differently this time but oh well.

Because one is the Accepted answer being placed at the top and also stays in the original place in the thread.
