Conversion vs redemption in mutual funds
How FolioSync treats mutual fund redemptions and fund-to-fund conversions.
Common symptoms
- A conversion looks like money was redeemed from one fund and added to another.
- Converted units changed the Cost NAV of the destination fund.
- Completed profit/loss appears on the original fund after a conversion.
What to try first
- 1A redemption removes units from one fund and records proceeds from that fund only.
- 2A conversion creates two linked entries: one removes units from the original fund and one adds units to the destination fund.
- 3The original fund side uses FIFO, just like a redemption, so the oldest units are used first.
- 4The destination fund receives units based on the transferred value and destination NAV.
- 5If a conversion is deleted, FolioSync removes both linked entries and recalculates the affected holdings.
When opening a ticket
- Send the original fund, destination fund, conversion date, units, NAVs, charges, and screenshots from the AMC statement.
- Attach the statement PDF or a backup export if the conversion was imported and values look wrong.
