[BUG] Distributed Dividends list is out of sync with current balance

appears to be a delay on how fast the list is updated. I’m not sure of the parameters on how fast the list is supposed to update but I’m assuming since it’s scanning the blockchain that it should be what ever is current when you click the button.

The list is generated from the blockchain, so it doesn’t count any unconfirmed transaction. And it only counts blocks that were generated before the “record date”.

i.e this is expected behaviour:

  • send shares on April 22st to 11 other addresses
  • check the shareholder list for april 22nd after waiting for 45 confirmations
  • it still shows me as owning 10 shares when I click the Get Shareholders list

shouldn’t it be showing the 7.24 that I had remaining after the tx was confirmed?

Can you do a dividend payment and see if I get the value for 10 shares or 7.26 shares (which is my current balance).

What did you fill in the “record date” field?

When I set the record date to 2014-04-23 00:00 I get a balance of 7.24 shares.

Ahh I understand what I was doing wrong.

22/04/2014 5:00:00 PM – shows the correct amount of shares I owned after I sent the transaction.

I was searching the list 22/04/2014 0:00:00 AM so 10 shares was correct at that time.

question: why can we even set the date on the shareholder list, shouldn’t we be pulling current time when checking the list?

or is this a basic UI thing right now, I’m not clear conceptually why we would want anything other than current time.

thanks!

Backdating of the dividend, say, to the end of the last quarter (it may take a few days to reconcile and pull together funds). In that case, you only want to pay dividends to the holders at the time the quarter ended.

And you also want many confirmations of the transactions.
