    Maybe enter it in 2 steps, 10:1 and 150:1? You might have to enter them on successive days.

    I don't have any obvious problem entering two splits on the same date in my test file.  Since one component is a 1:3 version (or similar multiple of 3), you might want to be careful if your original share count is not a multiple of 3.  That is, my test of owning 3000 shares correctly came out to 2 shares after the two splits.  Some other original share count might produce a false number of fractional shares to deal with.

    The issue is the stock split window opens an error message stating Quicken limits splits to 1000:1
