Q06 investment transaction problem

Feb 26, 2007 1 Replies

A boughtX entry (several months back) in my investment account displayed with incorrect numbers (huge). I deleted and reentered the transaction and it displayed correctly. Howerver the matching transfer entry in my cash account now showed as unreconciled. When I manually replaced the reconciled "R" setting, the investment entry returned to its former error state. Is there a fix or will I have to avoid the single transaction transfer and instead manually record a deposit of cash and then a subsequent simple stock purchase? Your time & advice greatly appreciated. Duncan


I think there is a bug, but I think you can overcome it by not deleting the original investment account transaction, but modifying it (leaving the checking account transaction still reconciled). I had to play with this a bit to get it to work, and I can't remember exactly what caused it to work, but eventually I had things looking normal.
