Hi,
I am trying to move my stocks to another broker with ACATS. The transfer was a
success, but I do not know how to record it in Beancount. Here is a minimal
bean file:
option "operating_currency" "USD"
1970-01-01 open Assets:Bank:Checking
1970-01-01 open Assets:BrokerA:Cash
1970-01-01 open Assets:BrokerA:Positions "FIFO"
1970-01-01 open Assets:BrokerB:Cash
1970-01-01 open Assets:BrokerB:Positions "FIFO"
1970-01-01 open Equity:Transfers
2017-01-01 * "ACH transfer to BrokerA"
Assets:Bank:Checking -10000.00 USD
Equity:Transfers
2017-01-05 * "Incoming ACH transfer"
Equity:Transfers
Assets:BrokerA:Cash 10000.00 USD
2017-02-01 * "Buy 10 ADSK"
Assets:BrokerA:Cash
Assets:BrokerA:Positions 10 ADSK {100.00 USD}
2017-03-01 * "Buy 20 ADSK"
Assets:BrokerA:Cash
Assets:BrokerA:Positions 20 ADSK {110.00 USD}
2019-01-01 price ADSK 170.00 USD
2019-01-01 * "ACATS out"
Assets:BrokerA:Positions -30 ADSK {}
Assets:BrokerA:Cash -13200.00 USD
Equity:Transfers
2019-01-05 * "ACATS in"
Equity:Transfers
Assets:BrokerB:Positions 30 ADSK {}
Assets:BrokerB:Cash 13200.00 USD
I realize the "ACATS in" transaction may be incorrect, but even the "ACATS out"
transaction raises an error:
acats.bean:33: Too many missing numbers for currency group 'USD'
I have tried various ways to amend the transaction with no success. Even if I
tried to move only the positions directly to another broker, it does not work:
2019-01-01 * "ACATS out"
Assets:BrokerA:Positions -30 ADSK {}
Assets:BrokerB:Positions
^ this raises a "Too many missing numbers for currency group 'USD'" error.
Another attempt was:
2019-01-01 * "ACATS out"
Assets:BrokerA:Positions -30 ADSK {}
Assets:BrokerB:Positions 30 ADSK {}
^ this raises two errors:
acats.bean:29: Failed to categorize posting 2
acats.bean:32: Too many missing numbers for currency group 'USD'
Could anyone tell me the proper way to move positions, please?
