Default Re: Online Update puts in a split that did not occur

That seems to have corrected the problem.

Thanks

There are some shares with bogus splits in the data stream from the
new quote provider. Your first indication on download may be that
a new difference, between what your register shows and what the
broker statement shows, may appear during download processing.

To work around this, look at the split history for a stock. Go to
the investment PriceHistory. UpdatePrices-> UpdatePricesManually,
Look through the table and find the entries in the Source column
that say "Stock Split". The first split, going back in time, will
be identifiable by the quotes being suffixed with an 'S' for the
price. The first may not be the bad one.

Note the date of the bad split. It is not necessary to delete it
at this point. Click Close. Then UpdatePrices-> RecordASplit.

Record a split for the date you noted as a 1 for 1 split. Accept
that you are overwriting the existing split. That should inoculate
you to a re-download of the bad split for that date-- at least for
some versions.

Default Online Update puts in a split that did not occur

I own shares of Synovus and at the end of the year they spun off a division
called TSYS which I was able to correctly account for in Money. The problem I
am having is on the Synovus shares when I run online update it is putting in
a split of 228 for 100 shares on 1/2/2008. This is causing my share balance
to be incorrect. I can manually go into the Update Price and delete the split
which brings the share balance back to the correct number but if I run online
update again the split reappears. Does anyone have any ideas what I need to
do to stop this from occurring?
