Portfolio view daily gain totals don't add up is puzzling

In my Portfolio view, "Day Gain/Loss", the sum of the totals for each account doesn't add up to the grand total.

What am I missing ? Is there a "hidden account" or calculation that is being included that I do not know about??

If I create a separate portfolio view of just one account that has several securities within it the same error happens. The individual gains when summed do not equal the total shown in quicken.

I have tried validation but the calculation stays the same.

Suggestions welcomed as I am truly puzzled.

    When, what time of day, did you last update quotes? Because I'm guessing that all of those 0.00's are for mutual funds where the quotes for today haven't yet been posted.

    Also note, that some of the values that you're showing MIGHT be account level totals, which in what you're showing would cause the securities in the account and the account total to BOTH be included … thus counting the individual securities twice.

    This may be caused by a long-standing issue where the Day gain loss is sometimes not displayed correctly.

    Try changing the As of date back by one day then return to the current date.

    Does that fix it for you?
