: Help the FM newbie. I've updated a portfolio/sub portfolio hierarchy and I’ve taken a DL of fund daily rates. I’ve also manually processed some purchase transactions. After detailed review of the data I’ve noticed some of the day rates in some of the purchases are wrong. When checking back to the “price table” I’ve see the correct day rate has downloaded. Does anyone have any insight as to what I’m doing to cause some of these purchases to use the wrong day rate?

Hi Carl,

Where are you reviewing the transaction prices? When you manually enter a transaction you specify the share price that you bought or sold at. When you retrieve prices from the internet your closing prices are updated. Closing prices are independent from transaction prices. If you look in the Data Register (Edit / All Data...) you can see the closing prices by choosing "Prices" for the "Data Type". You can see the transaction prices by choosing "Investments (all)" for the "Data Type". If for some reason a transaction has the wrong buy/sell price, you can edit it here. Just select the transaction, and choose the "Edit..." button.

Thanks,
Mark
