Edward Jones Dividend Reinvestments downloading incorrectly

ccollins805

I've seen this problem posted several times but no solutions. I am a long time Edward Jones user & a long time Quicken user. I run windows 10. About a year ago something changed.

When I do a one step update the dividend reinvestment transactions come through as a buy and a sell, not a dividend reinvestment. This wouldn't be a problem EXCEPT: 1) none of the mutual fund names are correct. They come thru as ** fund A, instead of fund A. and 2) the price per share & number of shares are text, not numeric.

I have been correcting manually but I am getting annoyed. Any solutions?

I'm a EJ client also, but I am not seeing what you describe.  The only ones that I end up tweaking are the ones that have foreign tax involved.
