Problems with Vanguard Fund Data

I believe I have set up my accounts correctly and download active
money statements from Vanguard, but although I have a total of about 6
different funds, the transactions all get lumped into 2 or 3 of them.
I have to manually move them to correct funds. Does anyone else have
this problem with Vanguard funds, or a solution?

I have the same problem...even when I have shown one of the accounts as
closed.Also, the transactions don't add up to the account balance...really
weird. Whats the point of having online updates that don't work. any
suggestions??

Log on to the Vanguard website. Under Accounts&Activity, click the
link at "You can control which accounts display and print by
creating a preferred account view." Uncheck the account(s) that you
don't want to be included in your access.

Let us know if that helps.

I want ALL my different funds to be downloaded and viewable. It's
just that I'd like the transactions to show up in the correct funds.
Transactions for most funds show up in one, and none show up in those
other funds unless I moved them there. That workaround, moving
incorrectly placed transactions to the correct fund, is cumbersome.

OK. I think what I call an account, you might call a fund.

Sorry about the messy wording. I have only two account numbers, one
with 5 funds, and one, an IRA account, with 2. All the non-IRA
transactions end up in one fund and both non-IRA accounts. This I
assume, since at present no account has wrong transactions, having
deleted or moved all of them, and because I had not paid close
attention before.

Will look further into your original suggestion.
