@bkt2112, thanks for posting!

I went ahead and moved this out of feature requests, as it sounds like what you're looking for is already offered in Quicken Simplifi. To start, you mentioned that you're manually tracking the account in the Investments Portfolio, however, your request is for Investment Transactions; Investment Transactions don't impact your Portfolio Value in any way.

For Investment Transactions, you can enter debits or decreases in value. You'd want to use the appropriate investing action, such as a Buy or a Sell, or you can use the 'Payment/Deposit' option to put a cash transaction in the account. If you're looking to change the value of a manually tracked investment account in the Investments Portfolio, you'd do so by adding and/or editing the holdings or cash that are held in the account.
