By your being able to specify a date range, I infer that you did that from
the web? Or was that on the initial connect after setting up online
services within Money. If the former, the two sources of information (web
vs. direct connection to Money) are probably separate. If the latter, I
wonder if they data are the same format and, if so, what Money's processing
of the transactions is different.

Default Re: Only "positions" downloaded from Fidelity Investments

Not much help here .. just empathy

I use Money 2004 SB

I have similar probs with Fid.

When I discussed probs with their tech reps, they adv they didn't think prob
was there and suggested I try a dload using a newly created "test" MS Money
file.

I did and dloads worked in the new file. In that "session" I was able to
specify a date range ... perhaps the "daily" updates provide incorrect date
info to the dload interface?

Dloads continue to fail on occasion in my "live" Money file.

The failures are sporadic across accounts and transaction types.

I've learned to live with it.

I don't synchronize with MSN, so that does not apply in my case.

Default RE: Only "positions" downloaded from Fidelity Investments

I have a feeling that this problem has something to do with with
synchronizing the money file with the MSN Central. This is just a hunch
because I recall on one occassion after I removed and restored the access
from any computer feature everything seemed to work fine for a while. And
then it stopped downloading transactions for Fidelity accounts only. Both my
wife and I have an IRA with Fidelity and both those accounts were behaving
the same way. Any guesses as to this theory and what might cause this???

All my other accounts work fine, including transaction downloads from my
wife's 401k managed by Hewitt for HCA. The fact Fidelity doesn't suggests
that the broker, not Money, is the problem.

Default Re: Only "positions" downloaded from Fidelity Investments

Since noone else noted it, my downloads work fine ( M2001 and M2004 Deluxe) FROM a fetch within MONEY.
So if I open my brokerage account - select Go to Online services and then have the Fidelity box checked - I get the transactions
I have 3 Fidelity accounts and a few checking accounts at other banks - and a few charge cards - they all work fine.

Default Re: Only "positions" downloaded from Fidelity Investments

Chris,

At least I am not the only one. It's not a big deal and I could do the same
workaround as you. The problem that I have is that I switched to Money
because certain institutions didn't support Quicken and it just seems like
there are so many comprises that one has to make when using MSMoney. My old
Quicken2003 worked like a charm with downloads and I never had these issues.
I thought OFX was a standardized protocol and that there would be no issues
as long as the software and institution both adhere to it. I'll check with
Fidelity to see if they have heard of similar issues. Thanks for your input.

I get the same. It especially makes no sense because the transaction they
DO download are sells from the money market sweep account. It should be the
reverse.

My trades are infrequent enough that I simply convert the 'Add Shares' to
Buy or Reinvest, as appropriate. Not ideal, but also not worth getting
aggravated about. If I was an active trader, I'd be irked.

I don't think it's an MS problem, but is a Fidelity problem.

Default Re: Only "positions" downloaded from Fidelity Investments

It's Money 2006 Deluxe. It has worked on and off in the past but never 100%
of the time. Is there any way to check or change registry for the Fidelity
account to see if both Positions and Transactions are indeed enabled. It
seems like something resets Money to Positions download only for Fidelity.
It's weird with no logical explanation.

Which version of Money ? ( change Subject to include that)
A little history - like ... Did it EVER work ? When did it stop etc
and your menu choices in order ?
If Account list - Online Services , Connect , click on setup online services and choose Fidelity

From the " Pick an account to Use " screen - down the bottom check your settings for Online Services Mgr for Fidelity

Fidelity Investments Money Support 1-800-544-7931

Default Only "positions" downloaded from Fidelity Investments

Whenever I download my online statements from Fidelity, only "positions" for
each investment is reported. Even when there are new transactions, they are
not reported in the download. To sync my brokerage online statement to
Money, I have to disable online services and re-establish it and download the
missing transactions for a given period. The box to download both Positions
and Transactions is checked, so I don't understand why Money keeps reporting
only Positions. Everyone once in a while it seems to work correctly for a
while and then Money goes back into reporting only positions. This only
happens with Fidelity Investment accounts. This is really frustrating
because I never experienced this issue with Quicken.
