Default RE: Strange 401k Download Issues

David,

I am having somewhat of the same problem. My 401K is also administered by
Hewitt. I upgraded to 2006 Small Business Edition from the 2002 Small
Business Edition.

In the 2002, I used to balance the account manually when I received the
statement, then stumbled on the update online function. I loved it. I did not
have to do anything after that other then watch my money grow (hopefully).
When I started updating my account that way, each week, Money would make an
account adjustment in "Cash Transactions" that would cover the correct amount
and end in a balance of $0.00.

I then upgraded to 2006. Since then, I opened an E*Trade account and rolled
over some of my 401K money into it. I then setup E*Trade to automatically
update. Within a couple days, the money I rolled over was reflected in my
eTrade account. So far so good. I bought an ETF in ETrade. A couple days
later, that transaction was reflected, and my Cash Transactions showed a buy,
adjusting the Cash Transaction account.

I then purchased another ETF. The Shares show up now in Investment
Transactions, but not in Cash Transactions. Money shows more cash then what
is actually in my ETrade account. Plus, since around that same time, Money
quit adjusting the cash transactions in my Hewitt account, so it also shows
more cash then I actually have, and it grows everyweek as I get paid every
week.

So, in ending. None of the Cash Transaction sections get updated anymore in
any of my Investment Accounts when I select Update Now. It did work
initially. Now, only my positions in "Investment Transactions" get updated.

I've been downloading from Hewitt without a problem in 2004. 2006 improved
that by recognizing the buy transactions better. What I was doing in 2004
was letting it make adjustment transactions, then revising those with the
total dollar amount of the deposit from my paycheck. Doing that revises the
price, because I left the quantity unchanged. In 2006, I don't have to do
even that.

Default Strange 401k Download Issues

Hey All,

Has anyone else ever experience this...

I am currently using 2006 deluxe, but also had this with 2005 deluxe. I
download my Motorola 401k information from Hewitt and track the transactions
and balances. Everything works fine for a few months, then the transactions
stop downloading. It updates the positions, and if I let it, Money will add
"Add Shares" transactions to correct the fact that individual transactions
stopped coming down and the position data doesn't match. The strange thing
is if I select "Stop Online Updates" for the account and then re-setup
Online updates, download the last 30 days transactions, the skipped
tranactions will come down and everything is okay for few months. Let me
know if this has happened to you and if there is anything you can do to fix
it permanently.
