Why are ETrade US Treasury Bonds Maturity recorded as Deposit?
Every time a US Treasury Bond matures quicken downloads it as a Deposit and I have to manually edit it to bond sell so that the balance goes away. Am I doing that right and Quicken needs to fix it or should I be doing something else?

Because eTrade is reporting the cash that you received … and not the maturity of the security … which is recorded in Q as a Sale at Par.
And there's nothing that Q can do to fix erroneous downloads from the brokerages. Complain to eTrade, who are the only ones who can fix this … they know what a sale/maturity is … but they "cheaped" out.

Maybe add some AI and know if security name is: UNITED STATES TREASURY BILL 0% 03/04/2025 (matching existing buy) it can tell what is what. Quicken knows there is a mismatch when there is a deposit so it could factor that in too.
