I have a Prime Money Market (TPMXX) which, as all money markets are, is priced at $1, all day, everyday. MD seems to insist that the price is $0.01. I have downloaded the Security Price Entry extension and changed it to $1, but MD still doesn't reflect the change. What gives?

    Hi Scott,

    When it comes to Money Market Funds, the Quotes and Exchange Rates (Q&ER) updater seems to pull the 7-day yield instead of the $1.00 NAV.

    My solution is to correct the current price and then un-check the Money Market Fund in the Q&ER updater.

    Since the NAV is always $1.00 there is little reason to update it.

    To correct the current price, open Moneydance > Menu Bar > Tools > Securities > Select 'Prime Money Market' > Edit...

    In the resulting 'Currency / Security History' form, click the 'Clear' button, change the 'Current Price' to 1 and click the 'New' button.

    Click 'Done'

    HTH -Kevin N.
