SUMMARY When you add a new investment to an investment account there is no way of setting / changing the start date of that investment, it gets created with today's date. You have to wait until you buy some of that investment and run the consistency check to correct the issue. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create an investment account and add an investment 2. Buy some that investment with a date before today's date 3. Run the consistency check or try to make any changes in the brokerage account OBSERVED RESULT Consistency check flags that the investment date is before the start date and corrects it. You are unable to edit the investment in the brokerage account until the consistency check is carried out. EXPECTED RESULT The investment wizard lets you set the start date of the investment when creating / editing the investment (though would default to today's date).

Git commit 60e2d8cfd3a774b360ce8aadbd993c50fed404ef by Thomas Baumgart. Committed on 03/02/2019 at 15:46. Pushed by tbaumgart into branch '5.0'. Do not allow to enter transactions prior to account opening date The transaction editor in the standard account ledger does not allow to enter transactions that reference accounts that have an opening date later than the transaction date. The investment transaction editor is missing this feature and one could enter transactions with a date prior to the opening date of the investment or asset account referenced in the transaction. Moreover, the opening date of an invest account cannot be changed by the user but got updated to a matching value when the consistency check was run (e.g. as part of file save). The user was informed and was surprised. This change adds an automatic update of the opening date for the invest account if needed when the transaction is entered. Also, it does not allow to enter the transaction, colorizes the date and presents a tooltip on the date widget just like for the standard transaction editor.
