Incorrect Bond Shares

aerotech

My Quicken for Mac incorrectly lists the number of shares purchased when I purchased some US Treasure Bills a few months ago. It says I purchased 100,000 shares when I actually purchased 1000. This same error was duplicated in two of my Fidelity accounts. Anyone else have a similar problem?

Same problem with Fidelity. And when bonds mature, correct quantity is posted leaving a ghost purchase entry. This has been ongoing for several years. I have just made the adjustments instead of reporting. And it is only for T-Bills.

Thank you Richard! How do you make the adjustments? I tried to, but was unsuccessful.

I just changed the number of shares sold when it downloaded. While held, shares shows wrong quantity but $ amount is correct. I seem to remember that you can't change the downloaded buy quantity, but I might be wrong.
