Quicken Windows Help

Tell me how Quicken records the numbers I enter (Price or Shares)

For each number you enter in the Price or Shares column, Quicken records up to 11 digits total, up to six digits after the decimal place.

If you enter this

Quicken records this

12345.123456

12345.123456 (leaves it as is)

1234.1234564

1234.123456 (truncates last digit)

1234.1234565

1234.123457 (truncates last digit and rounds up)

1234.1234566

1234.123457 (truncates last digit and rounds up)

If you try to enter this

Quicken will only let you enter this

123456.123456

123456.12345

Keep in mind that your brokerage may also use its own truncation and rounding-off rules when reporting numbers on your statements.
