@Quicken Anja

Another issue with the new Quicken Downloads:

When selling options: Prior to migration the transaction would download as ShtSell as the action. Now comes over as Sell

When the same options expire they download as bought. Should download as CvrSht. Previously downloaded as "added:.

It takes quite a bit of time to change the action when trade 100+ options a week.

We need a resoltion

    Hello @rbridges01,

    Thanks for providing these details. I understand how time-consuming it can be to manually adjust so many option trades each week.

    This specific behavior with option actions appears to be related to how the data is delivered from Fidelity through Quicken’s download process. Because it involves how your trades are being processed on the back end, our Support team will need to review your account and logs to determine if there’s a way to correct the action mappings or escalate this for further investigation.

    Please reach out to Quicken Support directly so they can take a closer look.

    Thank you!

    @Quicken Anja this is happening with me too. You have to manually change all Sells back to CvrShts or it leaves you with the security still in the Holdings but with an amount of 0.
