Same for SelfWealth - dividend notices come from the companies in different formats.
Then please post these PDF debugs here, analogous to these you have posted so far. The more examples we have, the better the importer will work and recognize and process all documents.
If they are documents from SelfWeath, then post → here ← . If they are documents from CommSec, then post here.
@Nirus, dividend statements are TOTALLY different from each company and it has nothing to do with Commsec or SelfWealth or share registry (Stock transfer agent ), it’s the company.
I think bank statements and cashbook reports are the way to go for Australian dividends. eg https://templatelab.com/bank-statement/

Hallo @flywire
Okay, then please open a new post for this analogous to CommSec and SelfWealth. Post the PDF debugs here, then they can be implemented in PP.
@Nirus - anyone looked at this request - ASX feature request · Issue #2351 · buchen/portfolio · GitHub.
I can’t find my post here for the LIFO request.
I am looking for the ISIN or WKN and the name of the security in your PDF debugs. Did you delete these by any chance?
Just to reiterate that. In Australia, we normally use three (or four)-character security codes and registry codes (eg WTC and ASX respectively), not ISIN or WKN. Often we don’t even recognise the security name! Hence my posts re nonsense ticker codes that are unique to each quote feed provider (eg yahoo) and mean nothing to us.

Hello @Ismail_Mogal and @flywire
the PDF importer is done with your PDF debugs. If everything is ok, then this should be included in the next release.
Since this is a new importer, please check your other purchases and sales to see if there are any other fees, taxes, etc. hidden in the documents. Also, it may be that not all PDF documents are working yet. Please post them here.
If there is time, you can still implement the clearing account (cash account). Also here… just post the PDF debugs.

@Nirus thank you for your fast and efficient effort. Unfortunately, it will fail on the security code (which it seems you put in WKN). I explained the cultural reason but my communication hasn’t been effective:
As a way forward:
-
I’m likely better placed to test the issue using SelfWealth than @Ismail_Mogal with Commsec.
-
Resolve: Security code changes with data provider.
Hello @flywire ,
I have changed a few lines in the source and there should be no problems now.
-
Screenshot → Import and automatic create the security
-
Screenshot → Settings from security
-
Screenshot → Historical courses
-
Screenshot → Historical courses graph
Okay?
Greetings
Alex
Looks perfect!
I don’t know how to do Step 3 without changing symbol in Step 2 to QAN.AX. Can you explain at Import CSV file - #5 by flywire?
Hello @flywire
This is not a problem. In screenshot 1, I am not changing the tickersymbol in the security settings.
It stays the way it is. As you can see in screenshot 3, you can see that I have selected yahoo finance and then the stock exchange. That’s all…

@Nirus - So Yahoo is the only default Historical Quotes Quote Feed Provider. After selecting Yahoo and XXX (Australian Stock Exchange (ASX)) the security code has a “.AX” appended to the symbol shown in Screen 2. This is the nonsense ticker code I referred to. It is not recognised when the dividends just have the three (or four)-character security code (symbol). (That’s why I’ve suggested “.AX” should be a different field.)
In Reporting Across Multiple Security Accounts - #6 by flywire the Yahoo exchange code had to be added to import DemoDistributionsMultiAcc.csv distributions. This issue wouldn’t be apparent with ISIN or WKN codes which I suspect Germans normally use.
I wouldn’t expect future buy/sell notices of the same security (with three (or four)-character security code) would work either.
@flywire
Please create me an actual PDF debug in the correct pdf importer topic. Then I can take a close look at this and work out a solution.
Alex
Thanks for quick turn around is there a way to test it before release or you guys are happy with given PDFs.
Copy your *.xml file to test.xml, delete a test transaction. Open dummy file, File, import, PDF Blank Documents, …
