This question may be a result of my not understanding Fund Manager and the fact that this is the first time I have purchased a “stock.” Previously I had only had mutual funds whose dividends were reinvested immediately into the same fund. That was simple to record. Now I have purchased shares in a couple of Exchange Traded Funds (ETF). One has earned a dividend and the amount was credited to the case account in the brokerage portfolio. How do I record the dividend into the ETF and then to the case account? By the way, when I went to the “Investment properties” | “Type” I had expected to see a category for ETF. What category do you suggest for an ETF? Thanks.
