Selling Shares But not Enough Available

Keith A
Quicken Windows Subscription Member ✭✭
I am using Quicken 2017 on Windows 10. I am in a brokerage account and am trying to sell 119 shares when I have 417 shares of the security. When I try and save the transaction, Quicken tells me I'm trying to sell more than the # of shares I have and that I only have 47 shares available. The 119 shares were incorrectly assigned to a security of a similar name (same symbol though) as the correct security (3 letters different). The incorrect security holds only the sold shares (negative balance). Why is this?

How can you have two different securities with the same symbol? Sounds like that is the root of your issue.

The names assigned in quicken are slightly different but the symbols exactly the same. I figured it out. Thanks0
