: I converted some existing portfolios from version 6 to 7 and noticed that a custom report I use no longer gave the same results. In further testing, I found that the "Comm Fees (btw)" field does not seem to work correctly.

: To test it, I made a simple custom report with only the one field. Running the report I found that, for example, one security with one purchase transaction and three sales, each with a commission of 26.99 reported Comm Fees (btw) of -53.98 instead of $107.96. There were similar problems with all the other securities with more than one transaction. All of these transactions were entered in version 6 and the data files copied to version 7.

: Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Howard,

Thanks, this is a bug in Fund Manager 7.0 Beta 4. I hadn't seen that one
before, so thanks for pointing it out. I'll get it fixed for a Beta 5.

Thanks,
Mark
