Re: [GNC] Net Worth Linechart report - can't select hidden accounts

2021-10-25 Thread Adrien Monteleone
Yes, sorry. I wasn't thinking that if the chart covers a time period where the account is involved, that may show assets or liabilities increasing or decreasing across that part of the chart, which wouldn't be possible if those accounts were not included. I was only thinking of a snapshot of t

Not to put words into Colin's mouth, but the linechart report covers a period of time, which can be configured in options. So, it's entirely possible (likely, in fact), that such a report would need to draw on hidden accounts to determine overall status, even if they are now zero balance. ---

There are two places to look. First, in the Security editor, the securities usually default to 1 in the fraction column, tho you may have selected 1 if you knew that you were not going to trade fractional shares. Second, when you set up the security account under your brokerage account you woul

I'm trying to sell an existing stock. When I enter the number of shares (-720), the cell changes to (-7.2). If I try using (-720.00), the cell changes to (-7). I've checked the Stock editor, and the "fraction" is set to 1:1. Any thoughts? Frank Brunot fbrunot88...@gmail.com

You are no longer using those accounts (have hidden them) and they do not contain a zero balance? While maybe the setting *should* stick, I think it a fair assumption not to use hidden accounts in a NetWorth chart/report as they should generally have a zero balance and thus not affect the equa
