RickO or anybody else I'm still having this issue and I do not have the selection checked. Any other thoughts?1

There is a known issue now that the preference setting is not being honored. People have fixed this by deleting the preference file and setting up preferences again from scratch. I think this is the only option until Quicken comes up with a fix.
You can find the preferences file here: /Users/(username)/Library/Preferences/com.quicken.Quicken.plist
To access your Library folder, click the Go menu in the Finder while holding down the Option key. Rather than delete the prefs file, move it to the Desktop so you can move it back if needed. Make a file backup and quit Quicken before doing this. You may also want to make screenshots of all your prefs for easy reference of what you need to manually reset.Quicken Mac Subscription; Quicken Mac user since the early 90s0 -

Same here -- prefs setting confirmed.
I did change the setting, then put it back the way I wanted with a quit/launch between changes --- maybe an alternative to RickOs deleting the plist.
For some reason, only some transaction dates are changed. Most (but not all) changes were on "stale" transactions.
That can be a record-keeping/ tax/ late charge issue if some payment/donation has a calendar deadline.

What else does the plist control before I delete it? I am having the issue with Wells Fargo the past couple months.1

It wipes out **everything** . The first thing you will need to do (after deleting that file) is activate the software --- then continue on

You are right -- I should have clarified that the data file is still there. You still need to do "the dance" to bring it back in -- there are various ways to do it.27" iMac 5K OS Ventura Quicken user since it was just a check register.

I tried deleting the plist and that did not work. Checked and unchecked the posted date box also. No change.

Alan- turn off syncing: Preferences => Mobile, Web & Alerts => Sync: Off
- clear the preference: Preferences => Connected Services: Downloaded Transactions: Use posted date... => Unchecked
- quit Quicken.
- launch Quicken.
- verify the preference: Preferences => Connected Services: Downloaded Transactions: Use posted date... => Unchecked
- reset the Cloud Account: Preferences => Connected Services: Cloud Account: Reset button
- verify the preference: Preferences => Connected Services: Downloaded Transactions: Use posted date... => Unchecked
One more thing that could be added to the above: before step 4, delete the Preferences (.plist file) as described by @RickO in a post back in December.Quicken Mac Subscription • macOS Monterey 12.6 on MacBook Pro 13" M10
