How can we help?

This article applies to the CMC Invest integration only

Use the checklist below to identify what's causing the mismatch between your Sharesight portfolio and CMC Invest account.

Trades are missing

Your portfolio history is missing trades or goes back less than expected. See Missing trades — incomplete CMC portfolio.

There are duplicate trades

Your portfolio shows the same trade twice. This usually happens when a historical file import overlaps with trades already synced by the integration. See Duplicate trades in your CMC portfolio.

Quantity is wrong

If the discrepancy is small (1–30 shares) and the holding is an ETF (e.g. VAS, VGS, A200), the most likely cause is dividend reinvestment (DRP). Many popular Australian ETFs offer DRP, which issues additional shares instead of cash. These shares are not imported by the CMC integration and need to be recorded manually in Sharesight. Check this first before investigating other causes. See Dividend reinvestments.

The CMC integration only imports buy and sell trades. If your quantity differs from CMC, it's likely because one of the following was not imported automatically and needs to be recorded manually:

• Corporate actions (splits, consolidations, bonus issues, mergers, demergers) — see Recording corporate actions
• Dividend reinvestments (DRP) — see Dividend reinvestments
• Off-market transfers — shares transferred in or out outside of the exchange
• Opening balances — if you held shares before connecting CMC — see Opening Balance

A holding type is not appearing

Some transaction types are never imported by the CMC integration. See What does Sharesight import from CMC? for the full list of what is and isn't supported.
