Specific lot - Report for each sell lot against its buy lot

[vdtedla1]

Hi,

Is there any way to get a report which lists my sell lot next to the buy lot it got knocked off?

Also, I am able to get the redemption and distributed dividend in the custom reports. But I am unable to get the total realized gain (redemption + distributed dividend) in the custom reports I am trying to build.

Please advise.

Thanks
Tedla

Hi Tedla,

In the Capital Gains report if you are using Wash Sale rules then each lot is listed separately. The Wash Sale rule option is only in the Professional and Advisor versions. See "Options / Report Preferences... / Capital Gains / Use Wash Sale Rules". When this option is off the Capital Gains report lists a line item for each sell transaction, which can be from a combination of multiple purchases.

The custom report doesn't have a field for realized gain/loss, that is only available in the Capital Gains report. If you want to add the sum of Redemptions and Distributed Dividends, you can write your own user-defined field that adds these 2 built in fields. If you're in the Pro/Advisor version, there is a "Define Fields..." button on the Custom Settings dialog.

Thanks Mark. That answers my question. Is there any chance of making those 2 features available in Fund Manager Personal in the near future.

Those 2 are very important to me. Infact, I can live without the "Gains" from the capital gains report but not with the other.

Please advise.

Hi vdtedla1,

It is possible we could add an optional feature to break down the Capital Gains report in more detail that would be available in the Personal version. I wouldn't expect to see the Wash Sale rule added as a feature to the Personal version though.
