I'm trying to set up transaction download with RBC, using the right-click portfolio, selected "retrieve transactions". I have a couple of questions. (FYI: I do have transaction download working for two other brokers.)
First.
Four bonds paid a dividend. The FM "preview importing transactions" window says one is a new security. It isn't. I've tried to debug this by verifying the cusip is correct in FM security properties, and it is identical to what is on the RBC paper statement. What should I look at in FM?
Second.
Looking at the preview importing transaction window, I don't understand what I'm seeing. An asset pays a dividend that is not reinvested, it should go to the cash account. However, every asset dividend has a similar cash "sell" a few days later. I'm speculating that this might relate to the account having a banking sweep feature... that if I were brave enough to accept this downloads, the asset distributions would have a corresponding cash-account deposits. But then all these cash-sells would be FM trying to sweep the cash to some bank account. Is this a fair interpretation of what's happening? What do I do to straighten this out?
I can send you a jpg of what I'm seeing.
Thanks.
