Investment Questions

I would be grateful if you would help me with this situation.

I’m importing my crypto data

In which I have in Received in the account

In Investment, the cryptocurrency. I have all the positive numbers. So far so good

Why do I get negative numbers in the Investment Tab?

Have you tried drilling down on the negative quantities?

What kind of transaction have you entered - a Receipt?

Only show partial screenshots hinders understanding what you have done

My transaction is positive.

You have entered a Receipt transaction

This means you gave sold 1.577877 units of your investment

That is why the quantity is negative

Hello @psanudo,

Adding to what @Joe91 has mentioned, it depends on what you mean – or how you use – your receipts to account for crypto.

I assume that you are a crypto trader and you treat crypto like Inventory instead of currency – as suggested by your example.

In this case a Receipt citing inventory in the lines suggests that you sold inventory, meaning reduced your inventory balance by giving it away and hence the negative sign.

If, on the other hand, you think of your crypto as currency and your receipt was Received In in your crypto account will increase your crypto balance.

I’m not sure which method will serve your business better, that would be for you to determine but it doesn’t hurt to explore all available options in a test business and understand their intricacies before investing a lot of time either way.

Thanks to all for the help.

I’m new to Manager IO starting around August. I was able to bring all my transactions using the import bank statement. So far I have everything fine.

Now I would like to have the detail for each cryptocurrency in Investments. We have some way to import this detail into Investments or it must be manually.

What do you mean by “the detail for each cryptocurrency” - what details?
