: Cash positions, when entered manually, appear as credits, whereas OFX retrieval transactions show them as debits. Not sure if it makes a difference, but most of the OFX retrievals are placed into money markets, whereas the manual cash transactions are not generally placed into money markets.

: For clients, this disparity will be quite confusing. What I'd prefer to do it juxtapose all the data from the cash and money markets into one position, rather than as 2 or more separate cash and money market accounts. Is there a simple and quick way to juxtapose positions, rather than list them all as, for example, a separate subportfolio?


Hi Steve,

Yes, it is better to just have one cash account. Why do you have both "Cash" and "Money Market" investments? I would suggest just having one, and making that one the default cash account. It is perfectly fine to have a money market investment assigned as your default cash account.

Thanks,
Mark
