Open the investment register. Open settings. Choose "Edit Multiple transactions." Choose "select all" and "Reconcile" All transactions are reconciled now.

    To echo what @Jim_Harman said what you are suggesting isn't "reconciling" at all.

    Reconciling is the process of ensuring that your records in Quicken and what the financial institution has are in agreement.

    What you are doing doesn't ensure that at all.

    That marks them as Reconciled. It does not compare the share balances or cash balance to the data downloaded from your financial institution.

    To compare your share balances to the FI's data, click on the gear at the top right of the transaction list (register) and choose Reconcile shares.

    I am fine with it because I do not download data from the financial institution but enter them manually. I have been doing this for decades. Not only that, but I do this immediately when there is a transaction, instead of waiting for the financial institution to post them five days later.

    Yes, with that said, then what you are doing is fine.
