Bought 30 shares at $41.40 on 8/2/18.
Sold 20 shares at $30.13 on 5/8/20
Bought 10 shares at $28.30 on 5/15/20
Quicken shows 10 shares at 41.40 and 10 shares at 28.3
Broker shows 10 shares at 41.40 and 10 shares at 39.57 (Price adjusted for Wash Sale)

This should do it:
- Enter transaction button
- Remove Shares / 10 shares / specify lot / Memo = Wash Sale Adjustment
- Add Shares / 10 shares / price/share = 39.57 / Memo = Wash Sale Adjustment / Date Acquired = 5/15/2020
- Both transactions dated 5/15/2020

What that doesn't do, however, is reverse the capital loss within Quicken. There's no simple way of doing that so just remember to ignore that loss come tax time.

Yes, true but the $ amount is not significant in this case and for taxes I send out all 1099's to outside accountant.0
