Please log in for more thread options I would always be safe to load the oldest first and move forward. You can
do a one step update (to see how much data is returned) or possible you
might be able to be able to load specific dates on the brokers site (likely
90 days per transaction). However, I recommend you do not accept the one
step update transactions until you get caught up to that point.
Also, you do not need to reconcile each month - when I dealt with history, I
reconciled quarterly. Saves a little time.
If you are not concerned with history and want to start with 1/2008, you can
simply do a Remove Share for items you don't own and Add Shares for Items
you do Own. You will need to add shares for each lot you purchase to have
the correct basis in the future.
