also need to have the securities you are investing in.</p>
<p>Hence you need to create appropriate securities and add them to
the account before you can create buy or sell transactions of that
security in Moneydance.</p>
<p>This methodology allows you to have an investment account that
hold multiple securities, think of a brokerage account where you
hold shares in a number of different companies as a typical
application of this.</p></div>dwgtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/377857462015-08-29T16:42:49Z2016-02-19T21:05:13ZAdding my Investment Accounts<div><p>Thank for your advice, I can now show buy in action.<br>
One other problem I haven't resolved yet is in Summary view under
Investment Accounts heading it displays the current balance twice
and these double figures are included in the total.</p>
<p>If you could advise me it would be very helpful.</p>

<p>Please find attached a screenshot of my summary screen as
requested.</p>
<p>As you will see in my investment accounts are shown twice and
the totals are<br>
also included in the final total for all investments.</p>
<p>Could you please advise me.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Your investment accounts are not shown twice. What you are
seeing is the name of the investment account at the top, and then
indented under each investment account the securities that account
holds. In your case each investment account is only holding one
type of security and you have given that security the same name as
the investment account.</p>

<p>Sorry I have checked again and although the balance for each
account are shown twice, they are not included twice in the total
for all investments.</p>
<p>Thanks once again for all your help.</p>
<p>I am very impressed with the program having moved from Quicken
2002.</p>

<p>Thank for your advice, I can now show buy in action.</p>
<p>One other problem I haven't resolved yet is in Summary view
under Investment Accounts heading it displays the current balance
twice and these double figures are included in the total.</p>
<p>If you could advise me it would be very helpful.</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Friends Life
..................................................£25,536.84</p>
<p>FRIENDS LIFE .........25,536.84
shares.......£25,536.84</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>The top line is the value of the investment account. This sums
up the value of all securities in that account. The top line is the
total of the contents of all the cash and securities you have in
you investment account.</p>
<p>The second line say you hold 25,536.84 share in a security
called "FRIENDS LIFE" in that investment account. Those securities
have a value of £25,536.84.</p>
<p>The only reason these are the same is because you only have one
type of security in the account and no cash.</p>
<p>Only the value of the investment accounts is summed into the
total for all you investment accounts at the very bottom on the
summary pave.</p>
