: Mark,

: Please describe how Fund Manager will deal with the following scenario:

: 1) User realizes a series of mistakes with the old subportfolio's default cash account after setting up numerous complicated investment transactions, including spin-offs and stock splits.
: 2) Wants to rebalance cash account without having to re-enter all the complicated stock transactions of this old subportfolio.
: 3) Starts from scratch with a new default cash account by creating a new subportfolio, but simply recopies complicated stock transactions from old subportfolio into new subportfolio.

: Will the copying of stock transactions create problems in accounting within the new subportfolio default cash account?

Hi Steve,

You cannot "copy" transactions in FM. Do you mean you're copying the investments. When you copy investments this will not affect any transactions in a default cash account. Only entering/retrieving/importing transactions while a default cash account is assigned will cause a corresponding entry in the default cash account to be created.

If you want to adjust the cash account balance, you can just edit/add a transaction in the default cash account to adjust the number of shares owned.

Thanks,
Mark
