: : : Hello Mark,
: : : I have this issue too. It occurs when I do a "custom" portfolio report, but not on a "ROI" portfolio report. Everything seems fine on the "ROI" report; I get "N/A" if a ROI is not applicable. I checked the interpolation range, and I have both boxes unchecked, with the "step" box checked.
: : : Even when I play around, checking and unchecking the boxes, placing different amount of days in the enforce max. interpolation range, I still don't get the "n/a" when it should apply.
: : : Again, this happens on the "custom" portfolio report. All is fine on the graphs and on the "roi" portfolio report.
: : : Thanks,

: : Hi Fred,

: : On the custom report, which fields are you using? Any of the ROI yields in particular? Is the custom report showing the yield for an investment, symbol, investment type, asset type, investment goal, or a sub-portfolio? Or, does it do it for all of these types?

: : Thanks,

: Mark,

: My custom report uses investment name, inv inception, end value, symbol, end shares, end %port, ROI (3m), ROI(6m), ROI (1y), ROI (3y), ROI (5y), ROI (btw). Report show ROI yield for an investment. Where it should be NA it has the same value ROI yield as the shorter period (where I had the investment for the full period). So, if I held an investment for only 1 year the 1 year ROI is shown for 3 and 5 ROI also. And "Allow Interpolation Prior to First Recorded Price" is unchecked.

Hi Cliff/Fred,

Thanks, the custom report is calculating the ROI yields using "Step" interpolation and allowing interpolation before the first recorded price. It is doing this no matter what the yield settings are for interpolation, which makes it different from the ROI report and the Portofolio Editor. I will fix this for 7.2 so it is consistent with those two, where the yield interpolation options are based on your settings. Thanks for pointing this out.

Thanks,
Mark
