Take care of the profit sharing and matching contributions in your paycheck
breakdown, right along with your employee contributions.

I'm with Wells Fargo for my 401K (they're the worst I've ever dealt with as
far exporting transactions into Money) so I have to do everything manually.

Sounds like you'll have to manually adjust every three months, as well,
during reconciliation by zeroing out your cash account and updating the money
market account to agree with your statements.

Fidelity is the cause of the problem. If you wanted to analyze it to
see for yourself, you could. But it would not make the workaround
chore go away.

The workaround is to change each of those Buys to ReinvestDividend
each month.

No automated solution. While I am confident that you are not the
only one, but I am not in that.

Default 401(k) and Dividends / Capital Gains Reinvested

My 401(k) is managed by Fidelity. On a monthly basis, I download from their
site the purchases done with my contributions as well as my employer's
contributions.

First issue: I do not know if it is Fidelity or Money's problem. The
dividends / capital gains that have been reinvested during the month appear
as 'BUY' in the Fidelity's download. So, it impacts the number of shares of
the investment correctly. But it negatively impacts my 'cash account' linked
to the 401(k) as no credit entry for that dividend is entered in the cash
account, just the debit for the purchase of the shares (reinvestment).

Second issue: the matching amount is not captured by the cash account. So
my cash account is out of balance for the employer's contributions and for
the dividends/capital gains reinvested.

Is there an automated solution tho this issue? Am I the only to have it?

Thanks
