My goal is to create a report to compare with my broker's 1099-DIV.
I get very close by creating a Schedule B report then double clicking on the specific broker under Ordinary Dividends and subtotaling by Payee.
It works great for everything except for reinvested dividends. Instead of using just the Stock (or fund) name for the Payee, it puts the number of share purchased at the beginning of the transaction description so instead of getting subtotals for the reinvested dividends, I get a separate subtotal for each transaction.
For example:
Instead of getting this desired subtotaling:
- Invesco QQQ ETF
(the 4 quarterly ReinvDiv)
- Vanguard Information Tech ETF
(the 4 quarterly ReinvDiv)
- Vanguard 500 Index Fund
(the 4 quarterly ReinvDiv)
I get 12 separate subtotals sorted by the quantity of shares purchased with the reinvested dividends. Quicken is inserting the share quantity in front of the payee descriptions but only for reinvested dividends. The remaining non-reinvested dividends subtotal properly. .
Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can remove the share quantity from what quicken is using for the payee description?
