[Kmymoney] Investments: Dividend Reversal

[Joe W. Byers]

I have found an issue when trying to reverse a dividend credited to a 
Money Market Account from a Stock.  I had a few shares of a company 
stock that required manually transferring the shares after I left the 
firm.  I was paid by check a dividend and deposited it into my 401K.  
The investment firm inadvertently credited by account twice for the 
transaction in two different statement periods.  I recorded it and in 
the following statement period where it was reverse attempted to enter a 
transaction with a negative dividend (income account).  Kmymoney would 
not accept the negative amount and kept resetting the total to a 
positive value.  I know I can delete my transactions and have the 
correct balances, but I loose the detailed audit tracks that accountants 
like to see.

This will require an expense dividend category or a transfer account 
with an adjusting entry from either of these to the income dividend 
category to get the income dividend category to be correct.

What can we do about this?
