Where is it getting this "2024-09-04" date? all the other scrips are using "2024-09-30"

Yahoo recently changed again how they provide data and all scripts had to be changed. As "automatic dividend calculation" logic is not in v3.*, the scripts for dividends were never updated and do not work now.
There are no plans to update dividends scripts.

Thanks for the update, I guess it now make sense to migrate over to v3. Is there a way to import the old dividend data to v3 and then start to manual add the dividend going forward?

Sorry, there is no way to import generated dividends.

in v3, i'm adding an entry example 2021-12-31 DivTA BCE.TO 1 5000, to at least track how much dividend was received for 2021. But I don't understand why refreshing the report it wouldn't show the dividends under the holdings tab for BCE.TO or under the Dividends tab.

What am I doing wrong?

Update:

Figure it out, I thought updating the transaction tab and then refreshing the report would work but looks like I have to run the UpdatePSData.bat before refreshing the report and the dividend showing up now.
