Want to see some "magic"?

I noticed this quite a while ago, but I don't think I have ever mentioned it.
We start with some transactions that have been downloaded and accepted into the register.


Now for a little magic, poof!


And now some of the transactions are back in the Downloaded Transactions tab!

So do you know how I did it?  
And no, I didn't restore from a backup.

Was there something up your sleeve ? 😉

Got no idea, so how did you do that?  Inquiring minds want to know.

Undo Accept All

Slick!, I can use that at times. Thanks,
Is that correct, Chris?

Nope.  This can be done at any time, not just after accepting some downloaded transactions.
Of course Undo Accept All can be useful if you catch a problem right after accepting downloaded transactions.

I'm afraid though that people aren't going to like the answer , as in it won't be useful to most people.
The secret involves Quicken Web.

If you look at this screenshot:


You will notice some checkmarks are gray and some are green.  The green ones are the accepted ones.
If one is using Sync to Mobile/Web one can go to Quicken Web and toggle these states, and then sync the Desktop data file.  If you toggle from green to gray, it will put that transaction back into the Downloaded Transactions tab after the sync provided that you aren't using automatic transaction entry mode. If you are using automatic transaction entry mode it toggles the "Status/blue dot" column from clear to a blue dot/New.

Of course because this involves Sync to Mobile/Web it is off the table for most people because that causes so many problems.  But it also points out something.  There isn't anything stopping the Quicken developers from having a right click menu item on Quicken Desktop to do the same thing.

P.S. I believe that Quicken Mac does have the ability to toggle the "Status/blue dot" column back to blue/New whereas Quicken Windows doesn't.  (Note that Quicken Mac doesn't have non automatic entry mode).
