Strange and Interesting variation between transactions for same security
I'm using Quicken Deluxe 2014 Windows. My Validate Repair process continually reports 'stock splits that might be missing' for one holding only, the Fidelity Government Cash Reserves fund.
And then reports that different transactions for the same fund are incorrectly categorized as Realized Gain.
This fund is set up as a 'Short Term Fund' in the Security list.
The fund never has had and never will have 'stock splits'. The price has never changed from $1.00 per 'share'.
Reviewing years of transactions I find that sometimes they are entered them as Div and _DivInc followed by a Bought and sometimes as ReinvDiv and _DivInc.
Now it seems that the problem arises at Sold transactions where sometimes Q records it as _RlzdGain and other times with no Category.
All transactions are recorded as whole and fractional shares and always with a price per share of $1.00.
As near as I can determine, this may have happened when my advisor records a simple Interest Income where I use the INT transaction followed by the BOUGHT transaction versus when I may have used the Reinvest popup which divides a total into various sources. However, in either event the share price is and always has been $1.00 per share, and the source would always and only be Interest. In the Reinvest popup, for this security there would never be Short-term, Mid-term, Long-term distributions anyway.
