Good question.
I only got my head around this recently (eg
https://github.com/flywire/ETF-Annual-Statement uses ASX:VAS - Vanguard
Australian Shares).
Entity,Date,Description,Account,Deposit
Super,30/06/2018,VAS,Income:Distribution:13U,-3606.42
Super,30/06/2018,VAS,Income:Distribution:13C,-22870.71
Super,30/06/2018,VAS,Income:Distribution:13Q,7069.35
...
Super,30/06/2018,VAS,Asset:Shares:CostBase,-62.21
Super,30/06/2018,VAS,Income:Distribution:Rounding,-0.01
So, I group it to the share holding each year (like investment property
depreciation). This would be problematic selling part of a holding. I see
you are trying to attach the basis change to each share held as it actually
applies.
I'll be interested to see the responses, and hopefully a mention in the
documentation.
