ONGOING 9/29/25 Fidelity Investments - 401(k) Unidentified Security during cutover
We’re seeing an increase in Fidelity Investments users with 401(k) accounts encountering Unidentified Securities during the recent migration cutover.
This is an emerging issue which we are proactively investigating and we have outlined steps to assist with the situation below.
- Edit each affected transaction
- Open the register for the 401(k) account.
- For every transaction tied to Unidentified Security, edit the Security field to the actual security name shown on the bank website.
- Remove the placeholder
- After all affected transactions are corrected, delete the “Unidentified Security” from your Security List.
- Re-match holdings
- Go to Tools > Online Center and choose Fidelity Investments.
- Select the 401(k) account, then open the Holdings tab.
- Click Compare to Portfolio.
- When prompted, proceed with Compare to Portfolio and match to the correct security.
Ensure every transaction previously pointing to “Unidentified Security” is corrected before deleting it. If the correct security name isn’t obvious, then confirm it from your Fidelity website holdings page.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, then we ask that you please contact Quicken Support directly for further assistance and escalation if needed.
