The account number for this sub-portfolio.

Default Cash Account

This setting allows you to define an investment to be a "cash account" for this sub-portfolio. A valid choice is also "(none)", such that there is no cash account in use. Once a cash account is identified the selected investment will automatically be debited or credited with the proceeds from recorded transactions for investments in this sub-portfolio. For example, assume investment "B" is defined as the default cash account. Investment "A" belongs in this sub-portfolio.  When a purchase of $1,000 in investment "A" is recorded, an associated redemption for $1,000 in investment "B" will also automatically be recorded. There are three types of transactions that will generate an associated transaction in the cash investment: purchases, redemptions, and distributed distributions. This option is intended to help maintain a relatively constant portfolio value, such that a more accurate picture of portfolio performance can be observed. (Related Tip: Often a cash account is kept at a constant $1 share price, such as in the case of a money market or savings account. Record purchases, redemptions, and distributions in a cash account just like any other investment, but keep the share price constant at $1 while adjusting the number of shares.)

This cash account will contain the transfers of money for transactions that you record in Fund Manager while this cash account exists, and is assigned as the default cash account. Just assigning it after the entry of transactions will not cause Fund Manager to go back and create entries in the cash account. The entries are recorded in the cash account when you record transactions only.

Use the "Show All" option to control whether investments from all open portfolios or only this portfolio are listed.  Turning off this option makes it easier to find an investment within this portfolio.
