Downloading transactions, Quicken does not show an existing security based on cuspid

PhilSlater

When downloading some investment transactions, Quicken does not recognize existing securities and wants to add it as a new security. I get a box asking to match it to an existing security, but the list does not include the security, even though it is already in Quicken. If I try to add it, it is flagged as already existing.

The name and cuspid of both securities is identical - 464287200.

Any help please?
Thanks

Phil

@PhilSlater i suspect you have the Security Type for that security in Quicken set to Market Index. If so, change the type to Stock or Mutual Fund (or most anything else).

The word is "CUSIP." "Cuspid" is a tooth. 😀

Anyway, the name of the security is "iShares Core S&P 500 ETF" with a CUSIP of 464287200. When you look at the existing security detail that CUSIP is there, correctly? But Quicken doesn't recognize that the security already exists in the file?

If that's the case then the first thing that comes to mind is data corruption of the Quicken file, so a Validate and Repair might be the first thing to try.

Thanks! I tried that and still no change. You have the correct security. It shows clearly in my security list with the same name and CUSIP, and is already in several accounts. It's quite frustrating - do you know how I report a bug?

@PhilSlater What brokerage are you downloading from, which holds this security?

And what's your download method from them? Direct Connect? Or what?

Thank you so much! You are quite right. I spent yesterday going through all my stocks to try and get their asset type right. Just changed back from Market Index to Mutual Fund and it all works again. Brilliant!
