[solved] Need to log-in for a security

[tneo]

Since the latest update when I open the application, I’m presented with an informational pop-up window. It states that a security needs to log-in. It does not tell me which security that may be or where I should log in. When I press the log-in button a browser window is opened to log-in on portfolio-performance.info.

• Why does a security to log in on portfolio-performance.info?
• How can I know which security wants to log-in to remove the requirement to do so?

Why does a security to log in on portfolio-performance.info?

Because you have selected the “built-in” provider for historical quotes.

How can I know which security wants to log-in to remove the requirement to do so?

Do not use “built-in” as historical qoute proveder for all securities

Beta: Neuer Kurslieferant direkt von Portfolio Performance

Mit Version 0.76.0 gibt es einen neuen - zunächst als Beta - eingebauten Kurslieferanten. Die Idee ist eine einfacherer Abdeckung von historischen Kursen den gängigen europäischen und amerikanischen Aktien zu erreichen. Es gibt keine aktuellen Kurse. Ich darf die Kursdaten weitergeben (“Redistribution Rights”) – allerdings nur an registrierte Mitglieder . Deshalb ist jetzt ein Login erforderlich. Ihr könnt die Beta nutzen, indem ihr euch einloggt. Danach erscheinen die Wertpapiere in der Suche…

Aha! Thank you. I went through all of the securities and updated the provider. I think the import from IBKR lets PP set the incorrect value for securities. Though I have to investigate that assumption.

I think the import from IBKR lets PP set the incorrect value for securities.

If the import creates new instruments, then PP tries to see if historical prices are available on the built-in provider and configures it. I could consider doing this only if the user is logged in. But then it has no source of prices.
