Accounts Reconcile Function accounts corrupted

General questions about using Fund Manager that do not fit into any other forum.

Postby Glenn2 » Fri Aug 03, 2012 3:34 pm

Each month I do a manual reconciliation on my accounts using the Edit>Reconcile Function.
This month only some of my accounts are showing and some of these have balances which are equal to the sum of several other accounts. If I look at the Portfolio Editor all of my accounts are showing and have the correct balance but the Reconcile View has them all messed up. I have shown a subset of the problem in the attachment.
One thing I did do in the prior month was a major tidy up /renaming of the Account Symbols I use for my Bank Accounts. If this caused the problem then it does not explainn why some renamed accounts are okay.

Hi Glenn2,

The problem is that you have those 3 investments with the same symbol. There is no such thing as an "Account Symbol", symbols are a property of the investment. When you reconcile, all the shares for a given symbol are summed up, and reconciled. Typically you would not have the same symbol for different named investments like you do there.
Thanks,
Mark
