Hi,

I am setting up an investment account in KMyMoney and I have been trying 
to work out the best way of doing it. Potentially there are a couple of 
bugs or maybe it is the way I am trying to set it up.

I have to pay a quarterly fee which becomes a "Commission Credit" so, 
for each trade I make, a commission deduction should be made until there 
is no credit left at which point it should be deducted as a fee from the 
trade.

If I try to set it up the fee as a split transaction, going to an 
expense category and a full/partial reversal in the commission account, 
it does not work properly. To me there are two bugs:
1/ If the total for fees is zero, the enter icon is disabled - either 
should not be disabled at all for zero fees or should only be disabled 
if zero and not a split transaction.
2/ If the total for fees is NOT zero, the enter icon is enabled but:

    When you enter the transaction for that entry in the investment
    account, it incorrectly shows the account as being the commission
    one rather than the brokerage one along with the value of the
    reversal instead of the value of the trade. The commission account
    and the brokerage account do show the correct payments.

The second bug also causes an issue when you want to go in to edit the 
transaction as you have fix the account and then re-create the split 
transaction for the fee.

Hopefully that makes sense, I am happy to clarify if required.

Regards,

Ian
