[Kmymoney] Problems with Reinvest Dividends

[Bob Ewart]

I'm running KMyMoney 4.7.1 on openSUSE 13.2 (64).

I have a number of mutual funds that reinvest dividends in December.  
Some how I got it to work last year.

When I imported the .ofx file, the investment account showed all the 
dividends.  The associated brokerage account showed the dividends as 
income and the re-investments as expenses with flags showing missing a 
category assignment.  OK

When I converted two of the dividends to Reinvest Dividends, things got 
a little strange.  I had to enter the price per share in the Price/share 
field for the first one. I had to enter the total dividend in the 
Price/share field for the second one.  Both showed the correct Value and 
incremented the number of shares correctly. And both are flagged as 
missing assignment of xxxxx nn.nnnnn. Furthermore both the income and 
expense are now flagged in the brokerage account.

I will welcome any suggestions as to how to handle this.  As I said, I 
did get it to work last year somehow.
