How do I correct setting up an account in the wrong file?

Caution: Be sure to make a backup copy of your data before beginning either procedure.

If you've entered a lot of transactions in the account:

  1. Set up a new account in the correct file.
  2. Export and Import the transactions from one file to the other.
  3. When exporting, select Export Transactions only.
  4. When importing, select Import Transactions only and unselect the "Special handling for transfers" checkbox.
  5. Only select special handling for transfers if you do not track VAT in Quicken
  6. When you are certain that the new account imported correctly, delete the account from the other file.

If you've only entered a few transactions in the account:

  1. Set up the account in the correct file.
  2. Enter your transactions.
  3. Delete the account from the wrong file.
