Years ago I had a Chase business card where the employee cards had unique account numbers. But there was a dilemma in using Quicken. I could download each employee card into its own account, but when I downloaded my primary card, it duplicated the employee transactions. Alternatively, I could just only setup the primary card where all transactions were downloaded, but then there was no way to identify which employee made a charge. It was frustrating and I eventually cancelled the card and just gave employees individual card accounts.

I really dislike that option as well so I'm wondering if Quicken has solved this dilemma. Is there away to have the employee transactions downloaded in a way where I can see which employee made which charge yet be able to auto reconcile and not have duplicative transactions downloaded in the primary account.

Anyone have insight on this issue and how it now operates in Quicken?

    Do your employees turn in the card receipts, that you record in Q prior to the download?

    If so, you could TAG each transaction with the employee name (or some other identifier) and then continue with the "primary account" approach.

    The tags would tell you which employee made the charge.
