| Are you sure it isn't because the default income and expenses report doesn't include the investment account so it's showing as a transfer from an asset account not included in the report?

| Hi, I found an odd problem today. It seems that the dividends are not shown as an income in the income and expenses report. Instead, they are shown up as "transfers." I think I understand why they show up as transfers. It is because of the way Money logs dividend transactions. When a dividend is received, in the investment account, you typically have a transfer transaction that transferrs the dividend to the cash account. Something like this: Investment Account: Dividend from MSFT Transfer to:Cash account 16.0 Cash account: Transfer From: Investment account: 16.00 Memo: Dividends on MSFTA However, this makes it impossible to track dividend income. If I change the transfer to a normal transaction, the balance in the cash account is screwed up. Does anyone know how to correctly track dividend income? Thanks, Geoffrey |
