Transfer In Shares - 2 OOP Cost Values required

Comments, critical feedback, praise, or suggestions for new features.

Hi Mark,

another wish for the future from my side.

In order to track the gain correctly it would by nice, when i can specify the OOP Cost Value in two currencies.

1. Currency of the instrument (e.g. EUR for Euro)
2. Amount in the currency of the Portfolio (e.g. CHF or USD)

Sample
Tansfer in:
100 shares of Instrument A, OOP Cost Value in EUR 15000.--, OOP Cost Value in CHF 18732.--

Only with this information the calculation of the Gain/Loss is correct.

Thanks

Hi Hansjörg Zimmermann,

Okay, thanks for the feedback. You may have seen this, but you can specify a transaction specific exchange rate when entering a buy/sell/distribution. That feature isn't available when entering a Transfer In though. The global exchange rate on the transfer in date would be used to convert between the investment and your default currency.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

i have seen this. In my case i have very good historical data, and i would be able to provide this information. The use of the global exchange rate is ok for the market value at the time of the 'Tranfer in', but is not correct for the cash out amount, because this was happen in the past.

I can live with that, but it would be a nice feature to deal more correct with multiple currencies.
