Default Re: Transferring Investment data into another account

Years ago I had that problem: Cal gave me the answer . (of course)

COPY the original file and then DELETE everything - except for the account
I needed.

SO if had:
phone account
credit card account
car payment
401k
Checking, savings accounts ....
If you want JUST one account - say the 401k info, close Money - copy the
Money.mny file and rename the new copy " 401k.mny "

Open Money (- file- close current file if it opens automatically, then)
File - OPEN - browse to ' 401k.mny ' , open it and THEN delete everything
BUT the 401k info. It's really quick to do it that way. Deleting accounts
is easy as long as your 'object account' has no transactions linked to
another account. (So if you wrote a check from CHECKING and deposited it
into 401k account years ago, that transaction would disappear when you
delete "Checking account" )

Default RE: Transferring Investment data into another account

I'm curious to see a response for this, as I have been searching for some
info on the same exact problem. I have a position in one account that had
historical return of capital transactions. Prior to the transfer to another
account, the cost basis reflects that RTC. But after the transfer, the cost
basis returns to the original purchase price rather than the adjusted cost
basis. And I can't figure out how to post a manual adjustment to reduce the
cost basis in the new account without impacting the cash balance. Anyone
have any clues?

Default Transferring Investment data into another account

I need to transfer my investment data (NOT just current list of equities) two
different accounts into new investment account. The only option I found was
to "Transfer Out"/"Transfer In" action - one position by one, manually; or
automatically, by closing old account and selecting where equity positions
should be transferred.

However, "Transfer Out"/"Transfer In" is not transferring all actions (such
as "Buy", "Sell", "Dividends", etc.).
That makes all numbers like "Realized Gains", "Gain", "Total return",
"Annualized Return" (and, I suspect, many more - Lots and Capital Gains,
etc.) totally wrong.

"Cut and Paste to Account..." and "Export" - "Import/Recover" do not work.

What do I do?
