I am guessing that the broker provides you with direct OFX
downloads. You can determine that at
http://www.microsoft.com/money/banko...BrokeragesOnly
by clicking on your broker and looking at the pop-up. If the term
"third party" is not present, your broker provides you with direct
OFX downloads.


If you really wanted to track anomalies down, you could save a log
from the downloads. You could then analyze the logs after study as
to how to interpret them. It is more complex than most people would
be interested in.

Different brokers may have some shortcomings as you described. These
may be minimized by avoiding downloads at certain times. Times near
midnight at the broker seem to be more subject to the problem.
Downloading mornings, days, or evenings might be a good idea.

If you notice something like this, you could test for that theory by
File-> Restoring yesterday's backup and re-downloading in the
morning.

I'm a new user to Money so I'm not very knowledgeable about all it's
features as yet.

I've setup an investment brokerage account in Money and have been
downloading my investments now for several weeks. Everything seems to agree
except for a few items. In my cash balance, Money seems to have missed one
or two interest payment on some Mutual funds. In addition, I recently
purchased a broker CD. That money has not been deducted from my Money cash
account even though it appears in my broker account.

So far, I've been making manual adjustment to correct the account. Why is
this happening and what is the proper way to correct these errors?

TIA
