Investments
« on: April 09, 2013, 10:38:21 PM »
I'm now working on Investments in Bank Genie Pro 5 8)
So far, so good :)

Barry, Eric (UK) and Mike (NZ) have extracted QIF investment account files and sent them to me as email attachments.
These are proving very useful.
I've been trawling through email communications with other Bank Genie Pro users who are waiting for the Investments module, looking for further attachments.  Please send me a reminder if you have sent me files recently.

I've written the import program and am testing it using these files.
The good thing about that is I have already encountered one unusual occurrence in Mike's data which is not as I would have expected, based on the standard QIF specifications for Investment type data which I am working to.
Once the program encounters it, I can make the program deal with it.

Its a big ask, but if any of our members can provide QIF Investment files exported from either Quicken or MS Money, they will be very much appreciated!

The data will be treated with confidentiality, of course.
I will use the data for test purposes and develop the import program to deal with all data available.
Any questions arising will be dealt with by email, not on the forum.
