  • I'm still seeing issues with my Savings goals. I'm hoping I get the fixes soon, as I don't want to make any contributions while they are messed up!

    Hello everyone!

    I am back with an update from our product team for this issue. The $0 balance issue for all manually tracked accounts and assets should be resolved as of today. Can you please let us know if you are still experiencing any problems related to the issues reported in this thread?

    Thank you!

    @Coach Jon,

    Can you please address the request that was made more than once earlier in this thread for some transparency on how this serious bug occurred and what steps Quicken is taking to prevent similar occurrences in the future?

    Like others have said, this has shaken my confidence in the software. I was already considering switching to another service provider before my next renewal date because of an ongoing issue I’m personally experiencing (I have been waiting nearly two years for a resolution of, or even any sort of explanation for, my broken Watchlists, which all always show $0), and this new problem and the lack of transparency around it is not helping.

    Hello @ejs,

    Thanks for the reply. We in the community are not aware of what specifically caused the issue; however, I did reach out to my team to verify if any insight could be provided.

    It's a very weird issue. It simultaneously:

    • added visible spurious "Opening Balance" entries to asset accounts,
    • added similar invisible amounts to those accounts,
    • added what appear to be multiples of the contribution amounts to some Savings Goals, and
    • increased the expected contributions to those Goals.

    Those things are all similar is a way — adding multiples of something to something else — but it's hard to imagine what sort of programming mistake could cause them all. Particularly when not all asset accounts or savings goals were affected.
