There are new settings for investment accounts: Simple investing (holdings only) or Complete investing (with all transaction detail).Check / change your account settings to make sure the account was created the way you need it to be.

Hello @mpsasot,

Thank you for your thorough response.

The first thing that I suggest is to create a test file and add the Interactive Brokers account and see if the same error occurs. You can do this by going to File>New>Start from Scratch.

Please let me know how this goes, I look forward to hearing your response.

Hi Jasmine

I am using Quicken Deluxe for Mac Version 6.6.0 (Build 606.43140.100).

The Finantial Institution is Interactive Brokers. I enable Quicken as a Third Party Service and I get a Token and a Query ID. I used them to create a new broker account in my Quicken account and it worked, but when I see the account it is in 0.

Maybe I have to add any aditional info to connect the Broker account.

I have linked my Ameritrade account with Quicken and it works perfectly.

I am using Direct Connect in Quicken.

Looking forward hearing from you.

Regards,
 Miguel
