I am new to GnuCash and gradually working my way through the archives,
but hoping someone can help me out in the meantime. I am trying to enter
my investment history and I can't figure out how to handle dividends,
capital gains, and automatic reinvestments. I tried creating a "div"
transaction in my fund account transferring from a "Dividend" income
account. However, this shows up on the reports as cash invested, rather
than income earned. It's late and my brain is fried but I would really
like to get this done this weekend. What is the right way to enter these
income events so it doesn't screw up my cost basis info and reporting?
Thanks very much...and thanks for a great program. My FAT32 partition is
about to shrink a little more.
