Background banking works only if you have a passport associated with your
file.

I think I figured out the problem. The "Update Now" button breaks the
transaction updates. Somehow it causes the RQ file to skip the transaction
updates. This function should not be used. Instead, use the background
daily update process and allow MS Money to retrieve the updates on its own.
It's been working for several days now and so far so good.

I have reported this to MS support. Hopefully they'll fix it.

In the RQ file, there is:


<INCTRAN<DTSTART> 20060410
<INCLUDE> Y
</INCTRAN
So perhaps this is why there are no transactions. Nothing has posted yet
for today. How can I reset this date?

Also, as for the RS file from the initial download, it says:

<INVTRANLIST<DTSTART> 20060311
<DTEND> 20060407235959.000

This appears to be correct. Is this a valid date format?

I noticed they use a different date format from my citibank statement:

<DTSTART> 20060406120000
<DTEND> 20060406120000

There is no <DTEND> tag in the file. There are positions, but no transactions.

Also, how do I discontinue online services for a bank?

In a case like this, here is a diagnosis technique that might tell
what is happening.

Open Money and enable the logging of the OFX files. See
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/911941/en-us

Look at the last *RS.txt file for the <DTEND> tag. Following that
will be some numbers, which is a date and maybe a time. If that date
is a time in the future, then Money will think that it has data thru
that time and will not re-request until you discontinue direct
services at that institution and then re-enable. The date on the tag
is in <DTEND> yyyyMMdd and perhaps with some more numbers which are
hhmmss hour minutes seconds. So if it does not start with 2006 on a
fresh access, there is a problem.

This happened sometimes with AMEX a while back, and perhaps it
happened to your AG Edwards files. Perhaps it is something else.

How do you drop online services for a brokerage?

I'm seeing the exact same problem with A.G. Edwards and Sons.

If I drop online services for that brokerage, and add it back, it
correctly pulls down initial activity (your choice, 7 days minimum).
But no activity at all during normal dowloads.

Fidelity?

401K?

I am unable to download new transactions from my investment broker in Money
2006 Premium. It downloads all my positions, and they appear in the ofx
file, but there are no transactions, even though recent transactions are
listed on the broker site. The initial download (to create the account) is
fine, and includes both transactions and positions. But after I import
transactions from another Money account, and then download again, only the
positions appear in the ofx file, no transactions. So my question is, how
does my financial institution know which transactions to send? Can I set
that manually in some way?

I have already asked MS support for help and from my broker, but so far no
luck. They have just sent me in circles, asked me to import, export, repair,
etc. etc. and so far nothing has worked. If anyone has an understanding of
how money determines which transactions to receive, please let me know. I
think it might be the key to getting this working.
