An annoyance with Quicken comes from downloading transactions involving reinvestment. As an example, I frequently will have two or three transactions that look like
Previous cash balance is $0.00
09/20/08 Buy 10 shrs VABD @ 50.00 = $500.00 which produces a -$500.00 cash balance 09/20/08 Div $300.00 producing a -$200.00 cash balance 09/20/08 LTCapGn $200.00 producing a $0.00 cash balanceI would rather have one of two things:
(1) Order the three transactions as Div, LTCG, Buy and avoid the annoying negative cash balance, or even better
(2)
09/20/08 ReinvDiv 6 shrs VABD @ 50.00 09/20/08 ReinvLT 4 shrs VABD @ 50.00How can I accomplish either of these two methods with a minimum of effort (after initial setup)?
