I'm trying to keep track of fees, but avoid having a default cash account because I then have to reconcile all purchases and sales. To do this, I create a buy with ANUM=0, and BNUM and CNUM = quantity. My hope would be to have the fees count against my ROI and I'd be able to see the total fees by the total number of shares. But, the price of the FEES is zero and it thus shouldn't average into my portfolio.
Unfortunately, this seems to assume the price to be $1.00.
My datafile:
Generic Fee,FEE,2014/07/02,BUY,0,100,100,Seeding accounts
My Import:
PORT,SYMB,YY/MM/DD,TRAN,ANUM,BNUM,CNUM,MEMO
This is the selection dialog:
This is the resulting transaction with a $1 price instead of zero.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug.
I am using FM Personal Version 2016.14.9.100.
Thanks,
