Transfer In/Out not showing in amount

[elliots]

Mark,

When looking at a Transaction Report I note that the Transfer In and Transfer Out transactions show a number of shares but nothing in the Amount column. I've gone back and looked at the entry screens for these and the is a field for the amount (which is filled in). Is this affecting any of the calculations in any reports? It would seem to be self-canceling at the portfolio level if the transfers were between sub-portfolios, but what about at the sub-portfolio level?

Hi Elliot,

Yes, the amount column was not being displayed. I'm not sure there was a great reason to not display it, but the thinking was that for transfers there are multiple "amount" values. You can have the market value, the OOP cost value, and the tax cost basis value. Since you pointed this out, I think it does make sense to put the "market value" in the amount column, and we'll just document that this is what value is being displayed for transfers. This will be done for the next release.

None of this affects the calculations in your reports. The values are still considered, they just weren't being displayed in this report column.
