How to process a spin off

John_L · June 2022

AT&T spun off Warner Brothers Discover (WBD). I show a discrepancy in Quicken for the new shares but how do I enter them? I do not see an item "spin off" in the list.

Thanks

The main discussion on ATT WBD is here:

Yes, this is a fine discussion of the ATT - WBD spin off, but the instructions use the Quicken for Windows Spin-Off command, which Quicken for Mac users don't have.

Why doesn't Quicken for Mac have the Spin-Off command? I have been reinvesting my shares of AT&T for the last 40 years, so I have at least 160 transactions that I will need to update.
