Depository Transfer/Moving Stocks between accounts

[Patrick Ruckstuhl]

Hi,

Is there a way to do a depository transfer/moving stocks between
accounts which keeps the cost/lot information on the positions?

Right now the only way I found it would be to do this manually. As I
have a huge number of lots this would be very painful.

Example:

2017-01-02 * "Buy"

    Assets:A        5 IBM { 5 CHF}

    Assets:CHF    25 CHF


2017-04-05 * "Buy"

    Assets:A        2 IBM { 7 CHF}

    Assets:CHF    14 CHF


2017-06-06 * "Transfer"

    Assets:A        -7 IBM

    Assets:B        5 IBM { 5 CHF}

    Assets:B        2 IBM { 7 CHF}


Thanks and Regards,
Patrick

Here's how you do this right now:

2017-06-06 * "Transfer"
    Assets:A       -5 IBM { 5 CHF}
    Assets:A       -2 IBM { 7 CHF}

    Assets:B        5 IBM { 5 CHF}
    Assets:B        2 IBM { 7 CHF}

Of course you don't fetch all the numbers manually, you get them through an SQL query.

These are infrequent in my usage, so I haven't created a syntax for it.

If you have these frequently, you could define a custom directive in a plugin.
