Default Re: Portfolio - cannot add same symbols?

Think of that asset just like a dollar is an asset. When you display
the asset you can click Investment Activities - top left panel - and
it will show every account that owns some of that asset.

Each account in the portfolio will show what assets are owned by that
account including cash.

But yes, you define the Investment once. Just like it only appears in the
newspaper once. That has zero to do with how many accounts can have separate
positions in that investment.

Default Re: Portfolio - cannot add same symbols?

No it wouldn't be my answer. I own the same investment several times over in
several different accounts with no problems and with the ability to track
performance and the account holding separately for each account holding the
common investments. I conclude you don't want to understand my--indeed
the--answer.

Therefore I must combine the total shares owned into one investment. That
would be your answer nothwithstanding the news paper example.

You DON'T enter the symbol twice to track the investment in two accounts any
more than the newspaper quotes it twice because you have it in two accounts.

See http://umpmfaq.info/faqdb.php?q=59.

Default Portfolio - cannot add same symbols?

using Money 2001.
I own OPPAX (symbol entered, displayed and tracked in Money). My IRA owns
OPPAX also, but Money rejects adding the tracking symbol in two places - my
IRA and my purchased shares . Money reports as a duplicate and does not allow
the symbol to be entered. How can I track my personal shares SEPERATE from
the IRA account (i.e. enter the symbol twice?).
I am required to manually update the IRA value but the account with the
OPPAX symbol updates fine via the internet.
Thanks
