: 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.

Hi Gary,

Glad you got it working. Fund Manager retrieves the information as reported
by your broker/fund company. I also have seen that usually a reinvestment
is posted as 2 separate transactions, a distributed distribution, plus a
purchase. This is equivalent to a reinvestment. This doesn't seem like
a doubling of the amount? Was the doubling only happening on your default
cash account? If a transaction is reported by your broker differently
than you'd like it recorded (redemption instead of an account fee), then
you can edit that transaction if you'd like.

Thanks,
Mark
