Bond Issue Date and Income Summary confusion

General questions about using Fund Manager that do not fit into any other forum.

Postby hilofarmgal » Sat Mar 27, 2010 1:09 am

Help tells me that I can enter bond data such as the issue date, but I cannot find a screen with that info. My properties screen has maturity date, coupon rate, frequency, but not issue date.

Also, when I run Income Summary, bonds show 0 income in years prior to my purchase. How do I suppress all those 0 lines?

My version is 10.4. Running on Windows 7 without a problem.

I'm a former Captools customer, and I LOVE your product...

Hi hilofarmgal,

The "Issue Date" is only entered when you set the "Payment Frequency" to "At maturity". For all other payment frequencies the coupon dates are used to determine accrued interest, etc. Coupon dates are determined from the Maturity Date, so "Issue Date" is not needed for those payment frequencies.

If your report date range starts before you purchased shares, there is no option to suppress those $0 lines. This is a new report to 10.x, and I think it best that we not display those. We'll see about getting that improved for a future release.

Glad you're enjoying Fund Manager.
Thanks,
Mark
