Does the built-in ofx importer handle investment transactions (eg: buy/sell stocks/funds)?
I built my own generic investment ofx importer on top of ofxparse, and I've been using it for years. It works for a number of brokerages including the case you describe, vanguard with multiple real accounts. I've been wanting to share my ofx importers, and will do so shortly. It solves a number of issues including: - stock and fund transactions including buys and sells (lot matching, however, is left to the user) - special handling of money market transactions (price conversions) - customizable for each brokerage house, to account for ofx differences, filenames, etc. - produces balance assertions - handles commissions, fees - produces price entries (many brokerages include ticker prices of all active tickers in the account on the date of download, in addition to of course, the prices gleaned from transactions) - available cash computation - cusip to fund matching (some brokerage houses identify funds only by cusip or other custom tickers in the ofx) On Sunday, April 26, 2020 at 7:16:04 AM UTC-7, hann...@gmail.com wrote: > > Hello, all. > > Can anyone point in the direction of some examples on setting up the > built-in OFX importer for investment accounts?
