You're talking about the case where the currency used to purchase the
security is not the same as the report's currency, right? If so then I
agree that it's not really doing it correctly. It uses a fixed
exchange rate between the currency used to purchase the security and
the report currency. If you want to propose a patch to fix this, that
would be great.
I think it works correctly if only one currency is used for all
purchase and sales transactions and this currency is also used for the
report.
