All share quantities held in all investment accounts are accurate, so how to make this message go away that happens during validation?

    I have the exact same situation and have had them for years. I've learned to ignore them once I understand that the proper split is in the Account.

    @Tom Young thanks, yeah the message seems harmless enough just annoying it can't be dismissed

    If there has been a split in a security that you hold in multiple accounts, I think the StockSplt must appear on the same date in each account. You may need to enter this manually to prevent the spurious message.

    Also there should only be a StockSplt and no Added or Removed transactions associated with Splits even if they were downloaded by your broker.

    If there is a Placeholder for the security following the split in any account where you hold it, you will want to resolve that as well. Entering the split and deleting any Added or Removed transactions should help.

    Be sure to back up your data file before editing historical transactions, just in case.
