New T-bill hides downloaded transactions

EvDob

I'm running into a new bug when I purchase a new T-bill (such as CUSIP 912797QH3) and open the containing account, Quicken asks me if this is a new security, then I say yes, and Quicken appears to accept all the downloaded transactions for the account (even though I specified manual only), and then shows 0 downloaded transactions until I close & reopen Quicken. Then it shows the T-bill purchase waiting to be accepted.

Hello @EvDob,

Thanks for the detailed explanation—this does sound like unexpected behavior. I’d like to ask a few more questions to better understand how the issue is triggered:

1. Which financial institution is this T-bill purchase being downloaded from?
2. When Quicken prompts you to confirm the new security, are you manually linking it to an existing security or allowing Quicken to create a new one?
3. After you accept the new security, does it appear correctly in your Security List (with a type of Treasury and correct ticker/CUSIP)?
4. Just to clarify—when you say the account is set to manual only, do you mean that you’ve disabled automatic transaction entry in the account settings?
5. Have you noticed this happening consistently with all new T-bill purchases or only with specific ones like 912797QH3?
6. Do you see any placeholder entries or mismatched shares appearing after the file is reopened and the transaction is visible?

Let me know what you find!

Ran into this again with a first-time purchase of an ETF (BAGY):

5. All new T-bill & ETF purchases

6. Yes, there are mismatched shares but no new placeholder entries when the transaction is visible. After accepting, the mismatched shares go away.
