--- Comment #1 from Jack <ostrof...@users.sourceforge.net> --- Just a very quick first response - you need to give a bit more details on exactly what you are trying to do. You really need to understand that in KMyMoney, and investment account can only hold securities/equities, and that any cash must be in an associated Brokerage (checking, for example) account. What is often thought of as an actual investment account (with an investment company for example) matches to a pair of accounts in KMyMoney, not just the investment account. If your company makes a cash deposit into your 401K account, in KMM that is done with a deposit into the brokerage account. If the company makes an outright grant of stock, that is done with "Add Shares" in the investment account. The requirement for cash to come from or go to someplace will not be dropped - it would violate the norms of double entry bookkeeping. However, the cash coming into a checking account (or brokerage account) can come from a Payee. If you are going to buy stock in an investment account, you need to pay for it with cash from the brokerage account. Simply doing an "Add shares" does not require any cash. Also note that the brokerage account is not necessarily a real bank account. It is used to track the cash holdings in the investment account. (This may change in a future version of KMM, but although it has often been requested and discussed, it is not likely to happen very soon.) Please let us know if this helps or not. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
