What you’ll need
- Quicken Net Worth report
- A decision on which accounts to exclude and why
Step-by-step checklist
- Decide your planning scope (personal household vs everything).
- Customize your Quicken Net Worth report to exclude out-of-scope accounts.
- Save the customization so you can reuse it monthly.
- Export the scoped report to CSV and upload to FinlyLife.
Common pitfalls
- Excluding a liability that matches an included asset (net worth looks inflated).
- Changing scope month-to-month and losing comparability.
- Forgetting to exclude closed/duplicated accounts.
