Hi -

I'm using FM Personal Version 6.8.344

In the Portfolio Value report, I noticed that "total portfolio value" seems to be a bit less than the sum of the individual investment values. I'm displaying all hidden investments, and there are no interpolated prices.

I attempted to isolate the problem, and ended up with this:

Step 1
Close all investments and portfolios
Open Investment #1
Run Portfolio Value report
The one detail line shows 6086.16
Total portfolio value correctly shows 6086.16

Step 2
Close all investments and portfolios
Open Investment #2
Run Portfolio Value report
The one detail line shows 8469.04
Total portfolio value correctly shows 8469.04

Step 3
Close all investments and portfolios
Open Investment #1 and #2
Run Portfolio Value report
Detail line #1 shows 6086.16
Detail line #2 shows 8469.04
Total portfolio value is now incorrect: 14537.20

Correct total value should be 6086.16 + 8469.04 = 14555.20
Dicrepancy: 14537.20 - 14555.20 = -18.00

Any ideas?

Thanks
Bill
