Stock dividend reports... Stubby 12-26-2006

Win2KSP4, QD07

It's the end of the year and I'm having my usual fits checking my 1099s
and hoping to make a completely automatic transfer into Turbo Tax. The
current problem is a stock that pays dividend, part in cash( _divInc in
my checking account) and part reinvested.

I can make a report that shows the cash dividends. But I don't seem to
be able to make a report that shows the reinvested dividends. And, I
can't get a report showing the total dividends paid (cash+reinvested).

Can someone tell me how to do this. (Surely I can't be the only Quicken
user with this problem.) TIA

There is a known Q bug that a Reinvested Income transaction will NOT show up
in some reports. To show in all reports replace a Reinvested Income
transaction with an Income Received and a Buy for the reinvested part.

Did Intuit announce the bug? When will they roll out a fix for it?
Re entering all my ReinvDiv transactions is a non-starter. That
completely defeats the automatic download facility.

As far as I know, this only occurs in the Itemized Categories
report. In my case it does not occur in the Banking Transaction
report ... which can be subtotalled on category to provide the
same info as the Itemized Category report.

Changing all reinvestment transactions to dividend plus buy
transactions would be major work ... and would alter Quicken's
reporting of at least one return metric.

I think a better approach would be to use the Banking
Transaction report, subtotalled by category, until a newer
version of Quicken corrects the error.

It also shows up if you go to Investment Center and select the Analysis
tab. In the "actual" asset allocation there is a pie slice labeled
"Other Asset Class". Click on that and then again on "Other Asset
Class". In the past when I did this it revealed reinvested dividend,
but for some reason that doesn't seem to happen today. In fact, I can't
get down to actual transactions at all now. Not good for asset
allocation and tax considerations.
