It was not meant for high performance it was meant for being low power. Anyways the 20 seconds is because that NAS could only transfer at about the rate of 11 MB/s. I'm a network expert and I the times represented above are for my data file that is stored on an low powered NAS (network server), which is not recommended by Intuit because of all the problems that can come up doing so. UPDATE: I like to point out something about my numbers above. So you have to ask yourself are those few seconds worth these other problems?

When I upgrade each year I will have multiple data files that all need to be converted. If I ever have to recombine the data its a REALLY PAINFUL process. Now what am I giving up? I can't see good history of my data. In a empty register pretty much no time.Īnd if you are a high volume trader with lots of investment transactions you can see performance hits while running the program especially in those registers with the high volume of transactions, which by the way the year end copy does not remove any investment transactions, so it is no a solution to this problem. In the area of loading a register (which gets cached after opening so it takes basically no time after the first time) it takes a few seconds for the first time opened. It takes about 5 seconds to load the brand new data file. It takes about 20 seconds to load (about 10 seconds the second time that day, as in it is cached in memory). What is the difference between it and a brand new data file? Performance is almost always stated as the reason people want to do year end copies, but does this really hold up with something like Quicken which is basically a database? Note this is on the Quicken for Windows. You will also want to go into the "BKP" file immediately and delete all of the reminders so that if and when you do open the file in the future, they won't fire off and pollute your file with "new" transactions. Investment accounts are NOT changed in anyway by the YEC process The only advice I can suggest is to validate a copy of your data to make sure that everything is okay from that angle. a transfer to a transaction that was a split that had a unreconciled piece involved in a split that had a piece that was unreconciled the mating transaction in a transfer to an unreconciled transaction When I have done this in the past with lots of unreconciled transactions scattered throughout the accounts, I found that everything left behind that I might have expected to have been removed was connected in some way to an unreconciled transaction. the investment accounts still had all their data as expected savings and cash accounts had Opening Balances with a December date one transaction (the transfer from cash) in the savings account from December, it was reconciled one transaction (a transfer to savings) in the cash account from December, it was not reconciled Opening Balances dated for all but a savings and cash accounts I executed the routine and the file that resulted had the following:

The archive file was given a name with BKP in it and a date of. On the year end copy screen, I chose the second option, "I only want transactions in my current data file starting with this date" and used as the date. The dates used in this example are to do a Year-End-Copy at the end of 2010, so adjust the dates as needed for when you are reading this. When I just ran the test, the only account that was not up-to-date as far as reconciliation was a cash account that had not be reconciled since last November and I left it that way on purpose. My file passes validation with flying colors, no issues reported. I do a year end copy every once in awhile when there are complaints that it is not working, so I tested it against a copy of my current data file. Also, do you plan on converting these archive files you are making to the next version of Quicken you buy so that they stay usable? Enough said on that subject. I have almost 15 years of data in my file at the moment, banking, credit cards and investment. I prefer to have all of my information in one file for historical purposes and ease of reporting. Let me start out by saying that I never do a year end copy. Nothing else has changed in its operation.

NOTE: With the release of 27.1.34.13, the File->File Operations menu choice was eliminated and Year End Copy was moved under File->Copy or Backup File… menu selection.
