Cal,

Thanks for researching this and providing the workarounds.

Regards,
JB

To fix a problem of sometimes generating duplicate IDs, Schwab has
changed their algorithm for generating the transactions IDs (FITID).
The downside of the fix is there will be a one-time set of
duplicated transactions.

To work around this, there are two alternative ways:

1. Either delete or Void the older of the duplicates. This one
may be a little more difficult if it is harder keep track which are
duplicates. Also, if you have already assigned categories, that
information will be lost.


2. Void the newer duplicates for now, and perhaps delete them
later. To get all of the newer downloads together, at the top of
the register, select View:SortBy-> SortByEntryOrder. The reason for
Void instead of Delete is that Money will remember the FITID to
avoid thinking that transaction is new if it were to get reloaded.

Remember to switch the View back to sorting by date.

Duplicate transactions appears to be back; anyone else seeing this
again?

The updates are now working fine for me, no duplication of transactions.

Sorry to hear that you are also having the problem but it makes me feel
better that it is a Schwab problem and hopefully they will get around to
resolving it.

I get the duplicate transactions also.
Have to manually match them after every connect with Schwab.

I agree with your analysis of the problems that others have had and mine
seems to be the only post talking about the duplicate transactions. That be
said, I created a new file with only schwab and then did the update and I
have the exact same problem with the downloads. I have about 8 accounts at
Schwab and there is one transaction in each of two accounts where I have the
problem. The same two transactions as I have with my full account file. So
at this point I am at a loss and will discuss it with Schwab again on Monday.

Thanks for your advice.

I may well have been wrong. However there were several posting about
having the problem and then posting that it was working. They have
not posted that they have the multiple download of transactions.

You could try Voiding the duplicates. Sorting the register by Entry
Order could make that easier. I am assuming that your doubling up
does not turn into tripling up if you again download.

I am not saying that you are wrong but I did have the same problem as most
everyone else and could not download any update. Before that problem I had
no problems with download and now I have the prbloem with the same
transactions downloadind. When I called Schwab they claimed that they still
have not "completely" resolved the problem and that is why I have the
problem. They obviously could be just giving me a story to get me off the
phone but I have no way of knowing.

Your symptoms are quite different from the outage that was related
to security certificate that was under discussion in the thread. So
"it" has been fixed. Your problem continues.

It may be working for some folks but it has not been fixed for all. I just
got off the phone with Schwab and they advised me that it is not completely
fixed and they will not be working on it over the weekend.

It my case, the same transactions will download everytime I do an update.

The other people who have posted that are/were.

If you go to https://ofx.schwab.com/ in IE7, do you get a
certificate error? I don't, but some others do.

Have not been able to update my Charles Schwab transactions for the last 12
hours. Spoke to MS Money support and to Schwab support. Tried some "fixes"
but in the end, MONEY Plus still not completing the Schwab account
transactions only.
Anyone else experiencing this?
