We are migrating remaining cash positions from portfolios to cash accounts.
During this period, portfolio overviews showing cash positions may be temporarily unavailable or display incomplete data.
You don’t need to do anything.
Your data is secure, and everything will work as usual after the migration.
You can find status updates here:

Portfolios without (manual) cash positions are not affected by this.

Why this migration?
Previously, there were two ways to record cash:
In the portfolio
As a Cash Account
This duplication could lead to confusion, for example when calculating allocation, invested capital, and relative return, if cash was recorded as a portfolio position.
Since cash accounts have been available for some time and are continuously being developed, we are now completely separating cash and investments from one another.
Cash can still be tracked via deposits, withdrawals, and interest.
Interest increases the value of the cash account as usual.
For automatic connections, this separation has been standard for some time.
For total return, we are working on a solution that accurately accounts for interest and uninvested capital. The goal is for interest to increase total return without affecting invested capital or relative returns, while maintaining a clear separation between invested and uninvested capital.
