Either enter a Dividend transaction AND a Buy transaction, or ONLY
enter a Reinvest Dividend transaction. The Reinvest Dividend
transaction represents a Dividend and a Buy combined into a single
entry.

Either record it directly as a reinvestment of the dividend. OR, be sure the
money you realize from the dividend goes into your cash account.

Don't record a dividend and a reinvestment of dividend. Just record a
reinvestment of dividend.

Default Recording dividend transactions

When you record a dividend, then a reinvestment of that
dividend, it removes the amount from the (cash) account
that corresponds to that account. The (cash) account then
becomes a negative number, thus screwing up the total
value. How do you deal with that??
