    Hi Folks

    I am also having the same problem I had last year with Australian prices not showing as updated until I go to another date and then back to today's date.  This was fixed last year with a new version of qwutil.dll.  Is another version of this dll going to be released?

    Both this incident and the previous one occurred at the end of a month.  This suggests a change in the way the data is being provided or the end of the commercial agreement under which the data is provided.  Since the latter is fixed by resubscribing then it seems to be the former. In these situations the data provider always gives advance notice to allow subscribers to adjust their software to avoid loss of functionality.

    Two obvious questions; if this is the case, what are the changes and how much notice was given?

    Hi folks

    Just to be clear, this is a technical issue. The team have conducted investigation work and believe they have formulated a solution. At this stage however, the full development team and resources are currently putting the finishing touches on the EOFY releases across our range of products.

    We're hoping to assign a developer to this task early next week.

    I fully appreciate that news may be disappointing, the team are fully aware of all your feedback and frustration in regard to this issue and are aiming to resolve this as soon as they can.

    Thanks
    Rav

    Hi All

    It appears that we have this same problem each year about this time.  This would indicate that it is probably an issue with the data feed.

    As I mentioned in my last post, the problem with the US shares not updating appears to be connected with the AUS shares not showing as being updated (even though they are!) until you go to another date and then back again.  This was the same problem as last year - see

    https://community.reckon.com/reckon/topics/personal-plus-portfolio-view-day-change-and-day-change-columns-dot-update-when-i-update-share-prices

    It was fixed last year with the issue by Reckon of a new qwutil.dll which fixed both the US prices not updating and the AUS prices not showing as updated.

    If this has happened before, surely it should not be too difficult to fix this time?

    Looking forward to this problem being resolved! 

    Terry  :)

    Perhaps it's a technical issue but is it one where Reckon was given advance notice and failed to act on that notice?

    Yeah.  There is a $129 'upgrade' being developed versus a free software 'fix'. Hope is all you have....

    I am having this problem to.  It was about this time last year that Reckon had the same problem.  Something to do with the firm that provided the data.  I hope they get on to it quicker than they did last year.

    Hi Rav,
    Will you communicate to all User's (Customers) when the problem is solved and if we need to do anything as part of the fix?  I recall last year we had to download some files to fix it.  It is a bit frustrating that this has happened once again this year.  I have a number of USD stocks and are reliant on the updated prices to tidy up my end of year financial affairs. Cheers

    Hi David and everyone,

    At this stage we're looking to have development resources freed up to work on this toward the end of the week. The team have been, and currently are, working through GovConnect changes among others coming in the EOFY updates to the business range which has utilised all development resources before its imminent release.
