Taxes We sold a stock this year that back in 2011 gave dividends as "cash in lieu of" which changed the cost basis to look different than the cost basis in bivio. How do I fix this in bivio?

I think this is what we are talking about. Can I fix this or do you need the info from our broker.

It needs to be entered as a sale because it changes the cost basis of your shares. Before the new cost basis reporting laws kicked in, brokers sometimes showed the amount incorrectly as a dividend on your tax forms. That doesn't mean you should have accounted for it as a dividend. If you need help getting this straightened out in your accounting, send us the brokerage report you are looking at that shows the cost basis of each of the lots you sold and we can help you get things fixed up.
