On a Fidelity Brokerage Acct w/check register, Does Q ever report the value of cash from Fidelity

johncros

I know this sounds small but it is driving me crazy:
in QuickenClassicPremier ver R67.7
Acct Type: Normal Fidelity Broker acct with check register enabled and
Treat MM SPAXX as cash:

Does Quicken ever display to either the $$ value or share count that it received from Fidelity on a download? I don't see anywhere that the either the share count or $$ received from Fidelity is ever displayed.

I can see a cash value the holding, but it appears that it always e anywhere that QUICKEN actually reports the "cash balance" that is RECEIVED from Fidelity? Maybe I am missing something but everything I can find adjusts when I enter FAKE transactions in the check register. All the values displayed by Quicken reflect the results of the fake transactions. There doesn't seem to be anywhere that Q reports the value Q would be receiving from Fidelity. It is just what Quicken seems to generate on its own. Is that Correct?

TIA

If "Show Cash in a checking account" is enabled, which is what I believe you mean by "check register enabled", then the cash is shown in that checking account … because Q has moved all of the cash from your taxable account to the checking account.

It's no longer, in Q's records, IN the brokerage account …. so the answer to your question as I understand it is no.

If you want to see the total value of the account, to match Fidelity's report, you need to include both accounts as shown in Q. The Portfolio view (CTRL-U), will also show the combined value of those 2 accounts when it's Grouped by Accounts.

And, Q didn't generate this "on it's own", YOU did when you enabled "Show Cash …"
