Could you specify what version were you using two months ago? I would be easier to pinpoint the commit that introduced this regression. No, I cannot. I can not even find a trace of an update. If you cannot reproduce this, I will have to debug it but it will take some time until I find time for this. OK, I've reproduced it, and by looking at the result I think that it's caused by this commit (lines 437 and 745) https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/office/kmymoney/repository/revisions/101225c4ec65fc7eb4c94d92ee38a32666013908/diff/kmymoney/dialogs/investactivities.cpp Allan, could you explain why was the 'assetAccountSplit.setShares(-total)' needed?

The change that Cristian mentions in Comment 3 was committed nearly three years ago, so that doesn't appear to tie in with your experience. I am sure you know what you're talking about, but just to be certain, you are saying that this operation has always worked correctly, until 'about 2 months ago.'? So, this would suggest something has changed since then. Unless I'm missing something. Also, I meant to ask about what revision of KMM you are running, both now, with the problem, and prior to that - about two months ago? And what distro, for good measure?

And what > distro, for good measure? Allan, the version number is available in the bug report, I also can confirm the bug, so there is no need for the reporter to give further details. The bug is simple to reproduce following the description in the report. Just create an investment account in a foreign currency and the brokerage account in the base currency then enter a dividend transaction. Observe that the amount in the brokerage account is not what one would expect. Since this only happens on dividend and interest income transactions I'm sure that the bug is caused by that commit since 'assetAccountSplit.setShares(-total)' was only added to those two actions. The rest work as expected. All I would have liked to know is that if there was a reason to add those statements and which was it? I don't want to add other bugs by removing them. Git commit 3cb1f8f3aa4851f46245003da03a01fb033a119e by Cristian Oneț. Committed on 11/07/2014 at 17:33. Pushed by conet into branch 'master'. Fix dividend payments in foreign currency. This was introduced in a previous revision when the call to InvestTransactionEditor::setupPrice (which takes care of conversions) was incorrectly removed for the Dividend and Interest income investment transactions. Only these transactions were affected by this bug.

I am using 4.6.6 and the conversion does not work properly. I can add a $ dividend payment in the investment account and see the very same number appearing in the brokerage account in €. However, in the income expense report the correct €-value is given. This is fixed in master which was not yet released. It will be available as the next stable release.

I compiled from source and indeed it is working now! thanks! |
