investment value error
This discussion is public.
On the account balance report, the value of one of the investments was way off. It appears as if that the error originated when a "Div" transaction was entered in the investment register and the price that was automatically inserted in the share price field was incorrect. That price seems to come from the current price in the price history. Since the price field in the register is not editable, is there any way to change it in the source file?

Hi wjschmidt
Write down the amount of the dividend on a piece of paper. Temporarily change the 'Action' field of the txn in question to 'DivReinvest'. You can then change the 'Price' field to 1.
Change the 'Action' field back to 'Div' and re-enter the dividend amount.
