Oh ur question just inspired me how to fix it. I have been keying the share in buy @ $0. Seems like can key in buy at avg div in cash.
Say ur ocbc div is 0.18pershare. U key in buy @0.18 the number of scrips u got. Taddar!

should key in that u bought at scrip price
example ocbc $9, script at $8.10
u got 10 shares... should key in 10 shares bought $8.10, not $0
since its the same as using the $81 cash dividends to buy 10 shares at open market... just that u got it at a lower price of $81 instead of $90
those who are keying at $0 your returns will look way higher for sure

But it will auto take it as u take cash for dividend... So it will be double entry...

Simplified example with no discount
1000 shares of ocbc at $9.00 worth $9000
U recieve $90 dividends or 10 shares at $90
Whichever choice u opt for
Your total value becomes $9090 (cash) $9090 (shares)
U guys understand this point first or not?
If u understand this point than script dividends is not zero dollar assigned, its the same as using your cash to purchase shares from open market
When adding script shares, if u wanna keep proper numbers u should key in the script price instead or zero
As simple as that
But anyway at the end of the day its up to the individual

means free 90 shares lor. no need pay anything
If i recieve $1000 dividends its "free"
And i use $1000 dividends to buy m1
Do i put the cost as zero?
If i recieve $1000 dividends from ocbc
And use the $1000 dividends to buy more ocbc shares
Do i put the cost as zero?

Why ah. Found that the management was good (never have a loss in all the years of operation), give very good dividends.
But like recent qtr not very good results, so have some losses.
