Transaction Retrieve Password Dialog

This dialog is presented automatically whenever you retrieve transactions for a portfolio that has an empty password field in the Transaction Retrieve Settings Dialog. When presented with this dialog, enter your password to complete the transaction retrieve for the specified portfolio.

Comments: There is a tradeoff between security and convenience when it comes to storing your transaction retrieve password(s). If you enter a password into the Transaction Retrieve Settings Dialog it will be saved in your portfolio file (*.mm4). This makes it convenient because you won't have to re-enter your password each time you retrieve transactions. However, this means your password(s) are stored in the portfolio file (*.mm4) on your hard drive. The username, password, and account number are stored encrypted, but for additional security you may choose to not store the password at all. For increased security you can leave the password empty in the Transaction Retrieve Settings Dialog, and enter it manually each time you do a retrieve.
