cash price update

Questions about updating prices or transactions in Fund Manager

Postby mli2001 » Mon Sep 22, 2014 7:04 am

Hi - I have several sub-portfolios and I set up a cash investment under each portfolio. the cash is supposed to have price of 1 all the time and i disabled internet retrieve for the cash investments (they have ticker symbols like "CASH.USD01",.. ). when I generate performance reports, the cash line is shown as NA in %Gains and Yield - probably because there is no price update.
Did I do it right? Do I need to assign prices of 1 to every date of this cash?

Hi mli2001,

This sounds like you have it set up correctly. You can record closing prices of 1 on the dates you want to report on. For example, maybe record a closing price of 1 for the end date of every month if you're reporting monthly. You don't have to have a closing price every day, but you need one for the dates you're reporting for. You can also choose "Help / Report Calculation Log..." from within this report to get an explanation of why any N/A is being reported.
Thanks,
Mark

Thanks Mark for the fast reply. When I ran the "asset allocation" report, everything works fine except these cash asset types - they showed up as "NA". However if I click on it, a pop-up "portfolio value" report showed up with a correct aggregate value. I thought this value should show in the asset allocation report. Do you know what could be the issue?
I also have similar issues on portfolio performance between two dates - the portfolio value reports for the two dates showed correctly the valuations of each investments and totals, however the performance reports showed NA in the total of "beg value" and "end value".

Hi Mark - please ignore the above. I found the culprit - it is the currency adjustment.
Thanks
