Loans start on date added instead of origination date

Hello,
Very new to Quicken. I've set up all of my liability accounts (live connection), including some long-term loans on latest version (Quicken 2020 R28.28), Windows.
I've also set up a simple Net Worth chart on the Home tab, and only issue I'm having is that the loans show up as a Liability only for the current month (date added), rather than the origination date (a few years ago). In other words, there is a sudden spike in Liabilities for the current month rather than "backfilled" up to the origination date.

Any way to include it in Liabilities since the origination date? There is no way to adjust transactions here as it is a loan account.

Example for further clarification:
[9/19/2015] Loan/Liability starts with $1000 principal (assume 0% interest)
[9/19/2020] User starts using Quicken, adds loan via live connection
Actual: User's Liabilities shows $0 prior to 9/19/2020, and $1000 for September 2020 onwards.
Example: Loan starts based on origination date. User's Liabilities should show $0 prior to 9/19/2015, and $1000 for September 2015 onwards.0 -
Figured out a simple workaround:
- Create a new liability account (I named it "Liability Historical Adjustment")
- Set to Manual, with Opening Balance for origination date based on the Current Balance
- Create a new transaction Closing Balance for the current month that Quicken is set up, so it balances to $0
Liabilities now show the loan for the full history of it.0
