Downloading Fidelity 401K Transactions Duplicate Mutual Funds in Securities and Doubles Account Valu

Drew Ward

Anybody seeing a recent problem when updating Fidelity 401K accounts that doubles the account value? Now, when I update a NetBenefit 401K account Quicken:

Duplicates each security appending the name with a “2” but no ticker symbol
Duplicates the shares
Causes the value of the account to double (wish it were true)

At the beginning of the Transaction register, Quicken enters Added Shares for each security that I hold in that 401K. (You have to scroll to the beginning).

I have three 401Ks with Fidelity and all are exhibiting this behavior. The other brokerage accounts with Fidelity are unaffected. 401K downloads with other companies like Vanguard seem unaffected.

This started for me in March 2023. I'm running Quickern Version 6.12.3 (Build 612.47885.100) on macOS Catalina v10.15.7 (19H2026).

It is coming up on a month from the time this was reported and the answer is the same. This is known issue. Well I'd hope so based on the number of people who have been posting. [Removed - Rant]

Double counting still a problem for me. Quicken, are you doing anything about this?

They fixed the dupe problem, you have to go into the Securities window, pick both accounts, click Merge, then select the old (non "2") security as the main one. Then click Merge and it works great! One possible gotcha, one of my securities the original was a company stock fund while the duplicate was listed as type Mutual Fund. I couldn't merge them until changing the duplicate security type to Stock. Then it worked fine.

The duplicated securites in my Fidelity NetBenefits account appear to have been fixed at some point after updating the account (and a few updates of the Quicken sw, running 7.0.0) but now I'm left with the history of double account values over this date range in Portfolio view.
Is there anything that can be done to fix this skewed history now that my totals and shares are accurate? @Quicken Kristina Can anything be done to fix this historical error now that the main issue was fixed? Thanks.
