            Bug ID: 494827
           Summary: Stock split ratio won't allow for accurate Schwab
                    stock split
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmymoney
           Version: 5.1.3
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

  Target Milestone: ---

I'm running kmymoney 5.1.3.  Schwab just did a 3-for-1 split on their SCHB ETF
on Thursday Oct 10, 2024 which I have several shares of.  If I enter a stock
split transaction with 3 as the ratio, then it's not correct because of the way
Schwab handles a split.  For example, I had 242.2707 shares before the split
but if I enter 3 as the ratio for the split, I get 726.8121 shares.  This is
not correct because Schwab gives me 726.2707 shares after the split and then
deposits cash in my brokerage account for the remaining 2 parts of the
fractional share split (0.5414) while keeping the original fractional share
(0.2707) invested.  I tried a workaround by entering 2.99776530963092111427
which should yield 726.2707 as the amount of shares I have now but it shows up
as 726.2700 which means the investment value is off by a little.  Is there
possibly another workaround for this or can kmymoney be enhanced to support
this scenario properly?
