: There is a slight problem with using 'other' distribution types for dividend imputation: because this type of dividend is not separate from, but part of the dividend, the BANK transaction report adds it to the balance, thus making the balance wrong. I could solve this by subtracting the 'other' component from the total dividend and recoding that figure, but that is a bit messy. Is there any way of producing the transaction report for BANK so that it leaves out the 'other' distribution type?

Hi Ronald,

By "BANK", do you mean your default cash account? If you have a default
cash account assigned, any distribution, buy, or sell will have the proceeds
transferred to/from the default cash account by default. This is done by
just recording the opposite cash flow transaction in the cash account. You
can of course modify this to whatever you like.

I'm not sure I followed the situation you described above? It sounds like
you have a distribution that is part dividend, and part "other"? I have a
feeling I may have missed the point of your question...

Thanks,
Mark
