[moneydance] What's CUSIP-broken?

[Michael Casteel]

Well, the problems it DID cause were:

- Income transactions not attached to the actual security
- Income transactions attached to phony securities named 'CUSIP-Broken: xxxx'
- Phony securities appearing in the popup list associated with that account

So, I wouldn't say there were'nt any problems!

I did notice that at least some of the securities in question seemed
to have an entry '^(ticker)', e.g. '^MMM' for 3M, in the field in the
securities definition window where I see '^(cusip)' on securities that
MD added from recent downloads. Maybe that confused MD when it was
trying to match the downloaded transaction. Or not--that's just the
only place I see CUSIPs in (some) security definitions.
