Mac Transaction Report problem with Reinvest Dividend transaction types

Ploooplooo

Hello Quicken Community! I'm running QM v 5.15.3. I run a transaction report on an investment account whose register shows zero balance but the report shows a non-zero total. Upon investigation, the report total is equal to all Reinvest Dividend transactions in that account. I run the report on all my investment accounts and the problem appears to be consistent. Has anyone else witnessed this problem (my quick search uncovered a lot of problems with Reinvest Dividend transaction type but not this one specifically)?
Thanks!

Sorry, just checking in on this. Am I the only one experiencing this problem?

I am observing the same behavior.

On a quick review of a Transaction Report by Account across all my investment accounts, I see that this Report is ignoring certain transaction types. 

In my case, Buy, Sell and certain Payment transactions are being ignored (omitted from the report). And as suggested in your original post, Reinvest Dividend transactions are being reported as Dividend Income.

Just a quick guess: It seems like this report is focused on reporting income and expenses and not total account cashflow.

Ah ha! I checked under Customize > Advanced, and find that the Organization setting is "Income & Expense". The option to set it to "Cash Flow" is grayed out, suggesting that this feature is not implemented (yet?).

I suggest you go to Help > Report a Problem ... and let the developers know of your finding.

Thanks, Ihossus. Will do.

I was hoping this would be fixed in 5.16.1 but it looks like it has not.
