Quicken entered these as straight principle payments and didn't calculate any interest. Then went to my bank account and entered in transaction to pay the mortgage for January and February. I entered the mortgage with the Janubalance. ![]() During my cleaning of duplicates I failed to notice this and ended up deleting transactions that were transfers and messed up the account on the other side. Later when I imported the other account it wouldn't match the transactions and hence I ended up with duplicates. Quicken would detect this in one account and make it a transfer to the relevant account. After I realized it was because transactions from one account often translated to a transfer to another account. At first I didn't know why and just deleted the duplicates. Importing transactions created duplicates. Screen render noticeably slower and there is lag clicking between accounts. First thing I noticed is that Quicken is so much slower than Money. Relatively painless as I am an experienced Microsoft Money user. I created all relevant accounts in Microsoft Money first and imported all my transactions. ![]() For some reason I really wanted to like Quicken which started this experiment. I wanted to start tracking my finances more closely so decided to start with 2017. In the past I have used Microsoft Money (15-20 years worth of data), although I haven't used anything to track my finances for a few years. I spent the last week entering in all my information from Januonwards in both Quicken and Microsoft Money Sunset.
