My wife, using Q07, has transferred money from her cash account to her
brokerage account. The transaction appears as "[Tx to Etrade]" in the
cash account, and "[Checking]" in the Etrade account.
However, when doing a report the transfer shows up as INCOME!! This
doesn't seem right. What are we doing wrong here?
TIA
Steve

You are making the invalid assumption that your brokerage is downloading
transactions in a Quicken friendly manner. This is rarely the case. You
need to speak to them about this.

Please log in for more thread options I am not downloading anything here. It is purely manual entries into
Quicken. If I have a cash account and a brokerage account, and I move
money from one to the other, it shouldn't be counted as income, should it???

Sorry, I was thinking something else.

That depends on how you look at it. From the sending side it's an
expense. From the receiving side it's income. Doesn't that make sense?
