Hello,

I am a very happy and loyal Quicken user.  Please PLEASE add the following feature:  Transaction Splits by PERCENTAGE

It would be SO helpful to be able to assign a memorized percentage split for transactions.  Here is an example of what and why...

I have a home business and would like to allocate expenses to multiple categories.  

Internet/Phone Bill:  50% Personal & 50% Business

City Power/Sewer:  70% Personal & 30% Business

Rent/Mortgage:  70% Personal & 30% Business

Auto Expenses:  50% Personal & 50% Business

Groceries:  90% Personal & 10% Business

Apple Music:  75% Personal & 25% Business

Etc, etc, etc...

Many of these bills vary in amount due each month.  To have to calculate and manually enter currency amounts seems like an undue burden, especially since so many other aspects of a transaction can be memorized.  

Thoughts?  Ideas?  Do you think this is possible and could be implemented in a future (or current!) release?

Thanks so much for your time!

Chris

    This would be a huge improvement based on how I use Quicken.
