Interesting, if this is correct it sounds like a bug. What do you have for the “Price Source” option? In the English version the choices are “Nearest in time” and “Most recent”. The first picks a price nearest the report’s date and the latter the most recent in the price DB. These will likely be the same if the report’s date is today. I tried setting the report’s date to March 31 and both options seened to work correctly. I can’t see how it could use the stock’s purchase date for the price since the code that is getting the current value doesn’t even know when the stock was purchased.
