Long Term Cap Gains - Tax Planner report vs Investments Capital Gains report
Was just running the Tax Planner report for 2023 to see how things look for last year.
Noticed that the Long Term Cap Gains total didn't seem to match the total from the Investments report for Capital Gains…. the Short Term Cap Gains were ok and matched -
Any thoughts on why the LT Cap Gains might be different ? or what to look for ??

The tax planner may be including LT cap gains distributions that are not part of the Cap Gains Report.

I see this as well. The report "Schedule D-Capital Gains and Losses" agrees with the Tax Planner. The report "Capital Gains" is off by a few thousand dollars for me.

This is the answer. _LT CapGnDst is not included in the Capital Gains report.

Tnx - so … which number is going to match the 1099 - or where does the LT Cap Gain Dist show up on the 1040 -

The LT cap gains distribution gets reported to you on the 1099-DIV, if I recall correctly. It shows up on your tax forms on Schedule D after all the sale specific data.
Again if I recall correctly, Quicken’s Sch D in premier and above includes the listing, but the Cap Gains Report only list sales; not those distributions.
