Handling GOOGL stock split (at Fidelity)

Hi, When GOOGL/Alphabet did its 20:1 stock split, Fidelity added shares as a "distribution" to make the total number of shares correct. So for a 10 share lot they added 190 shares to make a total of 200 (10 x 20). Quicken picked it up as Add Shares of 190. Because of this just changing it to a stock split of 20:1 doesn't work. 

Anyone have an idea of what to change to get the original lots to have the right cost basis and number of shares?

Thanks!

    Why doesn't  deleting the 190 sh add transaction and inputting the 20:1 split work?

    NotACPA, that did do it! I'm always hesitant to delete the downloaded transactions, but doing this and entering the stock split for the resulting new missing transaction kept the cost basic correct for my original purchases. Thanks!!
