Ouch!

Schwab account is downloading but the currency amounts are all messed up if I record a transaction from the download. Here's one:

Actual transaction (as manually entered):

Sell 20 Ishares Emerging Mkt fund @ $112.6075 ->$2272.19 less $10.02 commission/fees, net $2262.17.

Downloaded/recorded transaction:

Sell 20 @ $112.6075 ->$2252.15 less $10.02, net $2242.13

(note: this is less than the actual net by exactly 2*commissions/fees)

Interestingly, in the download/(match?) dialog, it gave 'Amount' as 2252.15 and 'total' as $2262.17. That last number is the correct NET total for the transaction.

I don't know what numbers come down in the download, but it looks like MD is mishandling them so that the commissions end up getting subtracted two EXTRA times, and the share price gets calculated from one of the bogus numbers.

I can't figure out why MD failed to match all the earlier dividend transactions, those numbers didn't get messed up.

Does MD even try to match investment account transactions?
