Deva,
I found this in my junk folder and I have no idea why it ended up there and all the others GNC emails didn't.

Your suggestion of doing the refresh does in fact update the account totals like I wanted.

A belated thanks for the suggestion.

Jack,

I don't exactly have an answer to your question, but I find that such mysterious behaviour goes away sometimes when I do View->Refresh. For instance, when I am switching datafiles, sometimes the accounts page shows all totals as zero (I am on Ubuntu GNC 3.10). All totals reappear when I do the View->Refresh action. Hopefully, this will solve your problem as well.

If this doesn't work, I'm afraid I don't have much else to offer you.

Cheers,
Deva

I have an IRA account set up where the parent account is a Bank Account
and under that are a number of Stock and Mutual Funds accounts.
When I update the prices by importing a CSV file the total $ amount for
the parent (IRA Account) account does not always update right away.
Sometimes it take a while and I'm a bit confused on what's going on.

What triggers the account totals to update?
