This is a huge gap and is frequently used. Please add find/replace functionality in Mac version to match the Windows version.0

I have a zero percent credit card ... so payment on the bill can be deferred ... I enter the transactions into Quicken, but postdate them by a year. Then, when I want to make a payment, I change the date to the present. It seems ridiculous that I have to do this one transaction at a time ... Why is there no batch-change option for dates?0

Why do you post-date the transactions? It seems you’re fighting against what Quicken is designed to do. I would enter the transactions on their actual date. This gives you an accurate record of what you have spent, and when. And the balance of the account grows to show what you owe. The fact that no payment is due for a year doesn’t require changing the transaction dates.Quicken Mac Subscription • Quicken user since 19930

Long time user of Quicken Windows.
I have been using another product for a few years, but have switched back to Quicken for Mac.The Find and Replace was really useful to clean up data after conversion.
I really need to change investment transaction types from Dividend Income to Miscellaneous Income so I can assign a Foreign Dividend category.

Find & Replace is one of the most common features in productivity software yet is missing in Quicken for Mac.
While the Edit feature has some capabilities, it is not a true Find & Replace. In particular, it does not affect split transactions. There are many times when changes need to be made to groups of split transactions. Perhaps the most painful need for Find & Replace is when converting from Personal to "Business & Personal".
When converting to "Business & Personal" Quicken, split transactions get assigned the default business account. If you have more than one business account, updating all the existing split transactions can take hours if you have much historical data.
Quicken, please add Find & Replace to Quicken Classic for Mac.1 -
This is already a planned improvement:

Thanks. I created a new comment because the issue is especially acute when converting from "Personal" to "Business & Personal". During the process of updating, it is easy to end up with hundreds of split transactions with the wrong Business Account. It is extraordinarily painful to fix.
I wanted the new comment to be a bit of a warning to owners of Personal who upgrade as well as a general comment.1
