: : Mark,
: : Tried to use transaction retrieval and received signon invalid. How can I contact you about the specifics without using the message board.
: : Thanks :
: Hi Gary, : You can fill out the contact form here:
: http://www.fundmanagersoftware.com/contact.html : Please don't send any account or password information though... Here are
: some generic instructions on getting your account set up and working: : You will need to have an online account set up with your broker/fund
: company. Some broker/fund companies actually have a separate account
: for this service. It may be called Direct Download or Web Connect. It
: is the same feature used by Quicken and Microsoft Money to download
: transactions. Once you get signed up with your broker/fund company you
: should receive an ID/password. You can then set up a sub-portfolio for
: this broker/fund company, and assign this ID/password to the
: sub-portfolio properties. To do this, just open up the new "Portfolio
: Editor" with "View / Portfolio Editor...". Right click on any
: portfolio, and choose the option to create a new sub-portfolio from
: the popup menu. On the "Portfolio Properties" dialog there will be a
: "Transaction Retrieve Settings..." button. This is where you assign
: which broker, the user ID, password, and account number for this
: portfolio. Then, just do an internet retrieve of your transactions.
: "Edit / Internet Retrieve / Transactions..." will do the retrieve, or
: you can press the button on the toolbar. : Feel free to reply to this post or use the contact form link above
: if you have any other questions. : Thanks,
: Mark Mark - Thanks got it working and it is a great feature, however I came across a couple things of interest:
1. Do not see a way to indicated reinvested dividends. It is being handled as a dividend distribution and a separate purchase.
2. Dividends earned on the default cash account is being treated as a dividend and a purchase, which doubles the amount.
3. Also no way to indicate that a redemption in the default cash account is an account fee.
Thanks
