The Portfolio Value and Cost Basis Report does not agree with the actual totals for the account because I have about 10 portfolio entries that have been sold and don't belong in the report.
For example, when I run the report it shows one entry for a security where the totals for Cost Basis = 0.0 and Balance = -8405.57. If I view the Transaction History for that stock, I see 21 entries where there was a Return of Capital (RtrnCap). These entries were classified as _DivInc. The total of these entries equal $8405.57. Therefore it appears that Value and Cost Report is picking up all of the entries of Return of Capital and subtracting them from the "Balance" even though the security was sold many years ago.
The only way to make the report come out correctly for the entire account, is to uncheck those securities where I'm having a problem like the one described above. I have about 10 securities where I am having this kind of a problem and wonder if there is a way to edit the transactions to fix this problem or do I have to modify the reports and uncheck all of the securities where there is a problem?
