Is your tracker able to pull SSB? How can we work around to include SSB purchases into the tracker?

Hi Ben, that may need to be a manual entry. You can do it in different ways. Perhaps you can have a Stock Summary SSB, Transactions SSB where you manually put the price. But since SSB price always remain as $1 you don't have to put the price but track the transactions of the half yearly coupons.
