John

I think the issue is that on the bank statement reconciliation screen, my 8/31/09 ending balance is correct, but on my Dashboard, the current balance of the Fidelity account is significantly lower.

I checked the account screen and the "force update" icon is spinning and I don't know how to stop it. ORiginally I was setup for auto transaction downloads for this Fidelity account, but it stopped working a while back which is why I'm now doing the manual reconciliations.

SHould the Dashboard account value match the latest reconciled ending balance or are these totally separate?

I've gone back through each statement reconciliation and everything is accurate. Which is why 8/31 ending balance is right. BUt this isn't flowing to Dashboard value -- not sure if it's supposed to

Thanks,

Russ

I guess I'll have to reconcile my reconciliations. Thanks for looking into this. I'll make sure all the numbers match up and go from there.

Hey John,

I had a chance to perform some reconciliations today and the date issue seems completely fixed. Thanks again.

However, I just reconciled my "Fidelity" account through 8/31/09 but it shows a current balance that is approximately $25,000 less than the actual balance. I've double checked my bank statement reconciliations and everything seems to balance.

I'm not sure if this is a bookkeeping issue that I'm not grasping or if it's something in the software.

Can you check it out when you have time and let me know if I'm doing something wrong?

I appreciate it

Thanks, John. I'm away for a few days but will try the reconciliation functionality again next week.

Appreciate your help

Bank Reconciliation Date Range Help

I'm reconciling an account going back to 1.1.09. My first statement has a date range of 1.1.09 through 1.31.09. I enter that date range on the reconciliation screen and LA changes the date range to begin on 12/30 or 12/31 of 2008. This ultimately messes up later transactions that fall on a month end because LA tries to push them into next date range period.

Am I doing something wrong here?

Would love to see @Replies adjusted to include @ "mentions" anywhere in a tweet similar to adjustment Twitter just made on their web interface

SMS Verification Message Not Received on Verizon Wireless Phone

Have tried multiple times to verify my cell phone/SMS but the verification message never gets delivered to my Verizon wireless phone. Sent email with my details to support@awayfind.com over the weekend. Thanks.

A comment on the question "How to categorize payment to myself?" in Less Everything:

Instead of listing "Owner Draws" as an expense category, could we also create a personal bank account and just show the draws as a transfer of funds instead of an expense. This would seem to keep our expense tracking cleaner and should more accurately reflect P&L. What do you think? – Russ Thornton, on February 06, 2009 16:00

A comment on the question "credit card payments" in Less Everything:

Once we log a credit card payment as a "transfer funds" I guess we should also delete it as an expense? Is that correct? – Russ, on February 06, 2009 15:57
