To make sure I understand your question, please allow me to restate the situation. The problem happens as follows:- First you sell part of the shares you own of a particular security. (i.e., a "partial sale." I say this because you refer to a "sold account." Did I understand this correctly?) This results in an account with a zero balance that FN uses to account for the sold shares. For purposes of this example, let's say the account name of the original lot of stock was ABC CO and that you sold part of it, resulting in a new account called ABC CO_SLD #1.
- Then you run StockWeb to update all your securities to market value.
- You then notice that the account ABC CO_SLD #1 now has a credit balance in it, which you correct with a journal entry.
Please post a reply to this topic (don't start a new topic) and let me know if I have this sequence of events right. In the meantime, I will try to duplicate this situation.
