  • Can you please take a screenshot of your c:\PortfolioSlicer\PSData folder. I want to see all files in that folder. And second screenshot - open Transactions.csv and show first few lines.
  • Sorry have no internet connection on laptop, so had to take pictures on phone and upload. Couldn't take screenshots
  • Here is some information for you:
    1. Portfolio Slicer will not work if your computer/laptop does not have internet connection. Yes, you can copy files between different machines, but you need to know what you are doing and need to be consistent with what you copy over.
    2. Your Transactions.csv file looks OK.
    3. In your c:\PortfolioSlicer\PSData folder file Dates.csv was created 17min before all other files. That would not happens during normal PortfolioSlicer file preparations and I cannot explain why you have this.
    4. In your c:\PortfolioSlicer\PSData folder you are missing file schema.ini. This is most likely why you are having errors while refreshing Portfolio Slicer report workbook. I cannot explain why this file is missing on your computer.

    I would encourage you to:
    1. Read this guide: https://www.portfolioslicer.com/data/data-faq.html#faq-refresh-error

  • 1. I was hoping maybe i can input data of assets manually, as my countries stock market isn't updated on google finance or Yahoo finance.
    3. I created this dates.csv using script by maxim separately and others are from extract data from excel bat file.
    4. I forgot to create psdatafile. I did now. But now symbol cant be found in the rowest error .

    Cant i use it offline?
  • Ohh , finally it worked after running UpdatePSData.bat .. I am such a stupid I was using only the updatepsdatafromexcel. But i think that one has some issue. So it did refresh now without any issue. I will check if i can fix my one now(as its the demo). Its been so many days you have replied and guided to help me without making this paid . Respect from my heart for you Vidas. Thanks a lot for bearing with my stupidity and also making such a great tool open for free.
