I'm working on getting various importers setup for my accounts and have hit
a snag. After importing transactions from my brokerage's OFX files, I see
messages like the following:
mine.beancount:65467: Transaction does not balance: (-0.02619 USD)
2020-09-24 * "DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT"
Income:Dividend -53.01 USD
Assets:Brokerage:TICKR 0.491 TICKR {107.91 USD, 2020-09-24}
It appears my brokerage does not specify the price with enough precision.
I'm considering doing the math to calculate the price on my own and
replacing my brokerage's value in the importer, but it feels a little
'icky' to be ignoring data from them... And how would I know I'm not
introducing an error (i.e. getting my cost basis wrong if my importer
miscalculates the price due to not subtracting out commission or something)?
Has anyone else seen an issue like this, or have any wise words on how best
to work around it?
Thanks!
