Also, to add another option to the 'Action' field in the Investment register called 'Note' or 'Uncategorised' which could allow us to keep notes, ideas, instructions, attachments handy to effectively provide an investment journal or diary.</p></div>Matttag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/483838762020-06-09T22:03:24Z2020-06-09T22:03:24ZA number of (minor) suggestions<div><p>These are great suggestions! I've recently added, but not yet release, a couple of them, but the rest should definitely be added to our to-do list.</p>
<p>One question, when you say "Support for full a installation on multiple computers that stays up to date between them" do you mean moneydance the app staying up to date? I suppose you know about the file syncing and that it's already possible to keep your data up to date across any number of computers.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>

<p>I actually wasn't aware of the full syncing ability being there - I'm going to try that out for sure. I take it it syncs past currencies and securities data as well?</p></div>UxRtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/483838762020-06-11T09:33:03Z2020-06-11T09:33:03ZA number of (minor) suggestions<div><p>I am not support staff, just a user.<br>
Hi UxR</p>
<p>Between computers everything is synced. Change something in Moneydance on one computer and watch the change appears in Moneydance on all the other computer within 60 seconds. Mobile devices, phones etc only bank/credit card accounts are synced so you can up date these on the go.</p>
<p>Hope this helps.</p></div>derekkent23tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/483838762020-06-11T17:32:31Z2020-06-11T17:32:31ZA number of (minor) suggestions<div><p>Hi Derek - thanks, this is great. I guess that one can be safely ignored then.</p></div>UxRtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/483838762020-06-11T20:47:56Z2020-06-11T20:47:56ZA number of (minor) suggestions<div><p>I am not support staff, just a user.<br>
Hi UxR</p>
<p>That would be the case.</p>
<p>Have Fun, Stay Safe.</p></div>derekkent23tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/483838762020-06-13T17:58:00Z2020-06-13T18:09:16ZA number of (minor) suggestions<div><p>This just made me think. I can run Moneydance at the same time on both my and my spouse's macbook? Thinking about it, it makes sense, but I always tell her to make sure I'm "out" of MD before she begins.</p>
<p>Sounds like I can drop that request? No potential Dropbox conflicts in modifying same transaction at same time?</p></div>dtdtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/483838762020-06-13T19:52:55Z2020-06-13T19:52:55ZA number of (minor) suggestions<div><p>I am not support staff, just a user.<br>
Hi dantdavis</p>
<p>In my set up I have had three computers and two phone with Moneydance open and no conflicts.</p>
<p>But you MUST be running 2017 or 2019 all the same version/build.</p>
<p>Hope this helps.</p></div>derekkent23tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/483838762020-06-13T21:41:58Z2020-06-18T00:27:17ZA number of (minor) suggestions<div><p>I'm a fellow user/</p>
<p>Thinking tends to cause headaches :)</p>
<p>Simultaneous multi-user access was one of the goals of the inbuilt syncing capability, so yes you can drop the request.</p>
<p>Each user is using their own copy of the data stored on the local machine, this is one, but not the only, reason for storing the file locally.</p>
<p>You can think of Dropbox as a bit like a notice board in this regard, you do something and the software pins a copy of this on the notice board, your wife's machine reads the notice board and makes a copy which it then stores locally and applies to the local data and so on. There is no data contention in this process, You can only read something once it is posted and you are not changing something that has been posted.</p>
<p>If you make a change, that is a new notice that XYZ is now abc is posted and it can then be acted on by all machines. Moneydance is using a journal method of writing data not going in and changing any original data but modifying it through a later transaction.</p>
<p>As for write ordering Moneydance uses internal time stamps to ensure the sequence is correct. I would suggest on all machines you ensure that Time Services are enabled.</p></div>dwgtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/483838762020-06-17T11:18:14Z2020-06-17T11:18:15ZA number of (minor) suggestions<div><p>Another minor suggestion regarding securities.<br>
We already have the ability to add a URL associated with an account; it would be extremely handy to have the same association for a security.</p>

<p>I vote for that suggestion</p></div>derekkent23tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/483838762020-06-17T20:57:33Z2020-06-17T20:57:33ZA number of (minor) suggestions<div><p>That sounds useful, and pretty easy to implement. I've added a ticket to our system for this and linked it to this thread.</p>
