Quicken Windows Help

Family Enterprise tab

This feature is currently available only through beta testing.

The Family Enterprise tab brings together cross-entity views of net worth, income, investments, asset allocation, and investment partnerships in one place. You can see your financial picture across multiple entities without switching between separate areas of Quicken.

The tab is organized into two subtabs: Entities and Investment Partnerships.

Tab-level controls

Three controls sit at the top right of the tab, across from the subtab headers.

Update Quotes refreshes the latest market values for your publicly traded investment holdings.

Contact Support opens the Family Enterprise Support dialog, which provides contact information for the Executive Care Team. From the dialog, you can also open the Quicken website to view team hours and schedule a callback. Callback appointments are available seven days a week, including weekends.

The ... (three-dot menu) provides these options:

Description

Track Overall Entity Selection

When enabled (indicated by a checkmark), all cards in the Family Enterprise tab respond to the entity selector in the title bar. Individual cards keep their own entity selectors and can be adjusted independently, but they realign whenever the title-bar selection changes. When disabled, cards do not respond to the title-bar selector.

Amounts in Thousands

Displays large dollar values in thousands, rounded to the nearest thousand. For example, $100,000,795 displays as $100,001. Useful when values exceed available column width.

Family Enterprise Overview

Opens a dialog that provides an overview of Family Enterprise capabilities and links to step-by-step guidance on product overview, entities, focused views, entity-level reporting, entity sharing, investment partnerships, bill pay, online backup, and the Executive Care Team.

Manage Entities

Opens the Manage Entities window, where you can create and delete entities and entity groups, assign or unassign accounts, and configure entity-specific settings. For details, see Managing Entities and Accounts.

Entities subtab

The Entities subtab gives you a cross-entity view of your financial life through four cards: Entity Summary, Income and Expense, Investments, and Asset Allocation.

Each card has its own entity selector in the top right corner, with the same options as the title-bar selector: your entity groups, individual entities, and Unassigned (accounts not assigned to any entity). The selection scopes the data shown in that card. A three-dot menu sits to the right of each entity selector and provides card-specific options.

How card layouts adapt to the entity selector

The Entity Summary, Income and Expense, and Investments cards share the same hierarchical layout, which adapts based on the entity selector:

Selector

Layout

All Entities

Entity groups appear as bolded rows. The entities in each group appear beneath their group with names indented. The group row reflects the aggregate of its entities. A Total row at the bottom represents the aggregate across everything displayed.

A specific entity

The entity name appears as a bolded row at the top. The accounts in that entity appear beneath it with names indented. The entity row reflects the aggregate of its accounts. A Total row at the bottom represents the combined total across all accounts.

The Asset Allocation card uses a different layout, described in that card's section below.

Asset Allocation card

The Asset Allocation card shows asset allocation as horizontal stacked bar charts. Each row represents an entity or account, and the Total bar at the bottom represents the combined allocation across the current selection.

Unlike the other cards, entity groups do not appear as their own rows when All Entities is selected. Individual entities are listed directly. The behavior adapts based on the entity selector:

Selector

All Entities

Each entity appears as its own bar. The Total bar represents the combined allocation across all entities.

Entity group

The entities in that group appear as individual bars. The Total bar represents the combined allocation for the group.

Specific entity

The accounts in that entity appear as individual bars. The Total bar represents the combined allocation for the entity.

Asset classes are color-coded and identified in a legend at the bottom of the card: Unclassified, Domestic Bonds, Large Cap Stocks, Small Cap Stocks, International Stocks, Other, Cash, and Alternative.

Investment Partnerships subtab

The Investment Partnerships subtab is where you track and manage private investment partnerships. It brings together committed capital, capital call history, distributions, valuations, and performance metrics for each partnership.

From this subtab, you can track a partnership's full lifecycle: set up a new partnership, record capital calls and distributions, log and update valuations, and close a partnership when it has run its course. All activity is logged to an account register of your choosing, which keeps your partnership data integrated with the rest of your Quicken file.

The subtab contains two cards: Partnership Summary and Capital Calls.

Partnership Summary card

The Partnership Summary card displays a row for each investment partnership you track, with aggregate totals at the bottom. Each row shows the partnership name, creation date, and an Action link that opens partnership-specific actions.

Columns. Three of the columns display two values stacked within the same row: the top value reflects the column's first label, and the bottom value reflects the column's second label.

Column

Total capital committed to the partnership (top); total capital called and paid in to date (bottom).

Capital Calls card

The Capital Calls card displays capital call activity as a grouped bar chart. Each bar segment represents an individual partnership's capital calls within a given year. Partnerships are color-coded and identified in a legend at the bottom of the card.

A dotted line runs across the chart representing your total committed but uncalled capital, the amount you have pledged to your partnerships that has not yet been drawn. As capital calls are made over time, this line steps down accordingly. This gives you an at-a-glance view of how much liquidity you should have available for future calls.
