Thanks, but I think you have misunderstood. There is neither a price nor a symbol; instead I have the total value of the managed portfolio in my reference currency. That's why I drew the analogy to a money market fund.

If yours is not reported you could make up a symbol and still call it a mutual fund. Then, of course, you would enter prices manually.On Fri, Aug 14, 2020, 1:13 PM rsbrux <rsb...@yahoo.com> wrote:Thanks David. The reason I wanted to use the Portfolio reports was to show ROI.

The accounts are represented in GC as generic "Asset" accounts.However, at least in GC 2.6.19, this results in the accounts being excluded from portfolio reports, even if I check "Include accounts with no shares" on the general tab of the report configuration. If I seect the managed accounts, they are unselected as soon as I click "Apply".Do later versions of GC handle this differently, or do I need to find a workaround? IF so, what approach is recommended?The situation is somewhat similar to investing in funds with a fixed share price (such as money market funds, whose price is usually fixed at USD 1). In this case the fluctuation in value is reflected in the number of shares.The advice I have seen on handling money market funds in GC is to simply treat money market funds as bank accounts, but this will also prevent them from appearing in portfolio reports.Do I need to create a fictitious equity to represent each managed account? If so, which equity type should I use?Thanks in advance for any advice._______________________________________________gnucash-user mailing listgnucash-user@gnucash.orgTo update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe:https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-userIf you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information.-----Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.You can do this by using Reply-To-List or Reply-All. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
