Some Vanguard brokerage dividend reinvestment transactions loaded via the 'Retreive Transactions' automated load processing included a small negative fee number.
These only showed up for Novmber and December 2011 transactions. I am guessing these are minor cash adjustments to reconcile the # of shares reinvested with the cash dividend that is funding the reinvestment for rounding errors using 3 decimal precision pricing. The only caveat is that to be consisitent with FM's 'fee' field assumptions these negative 'adjustments' ( CNUM field for Generic Transactions ) in the 'fee' field need to be positive #s , not negative #s.
I am assuming that FM's assumption here is that positive fee entries reduce cash and negative fee entries increase cash. These Vanguard reinvestment transactions 'fee's need to be positive #s when loaded into FM to be consisitent with the monthly statement entries provided by Vanguard.
No biggyy; simply need to change the fee adjustment #'s sign for these transactions.
