There is a bug with downloading transactions from Charles Schwab. When the commission consists of more than one charge (e.g., Schwab Prime Broker Fee, Executing Broker Commission, Industry Fee, Taxes), only one of these is included making the total commission incorrect. This in turn makes the calculated per share price incorrect. To correct the per share price a good deal of manual data entry is required. Please see attached example from physical statement.

Quicken should download the total commission price from Charles Schwab.

    Quicken has no control over what data Schwab or any of the thousands of other financial institutions gives to it. So, just like Schwab not giving correct data when a fixed income security matures …for years…this is probably a Schwab issue….

    @Richard Kennedy So in the example you posted above, what is downloaded from Schwab to Quicken? Can you just edit the Buy transaction to have a commission of $9.08? Then you don't have to deal with correcting the share price, as it will calculate automatically.
