Tom,
I dug into some of these (though not all).
For KNOP, the A/R of 0 looks to be legitimate. There is nothing amiss in the raw data as best I can tell and we are portraying the reports from Morningstar properly. Looking at Google Finance as a secondary source looks to confirm this. https://www.google.com/finance?q=NYSE%3AKNOP&fstype=ii&ei=3hgcVomJCsvIec3anJAM (click on the Balance Sheet tab).
Similarly, for RMAX, this simply looks to be what the data from Morningstar is telling us.
I do not know enough about A/R accounting practices to tell you whether these behaviors seem reasonable or not. If you think these data points are truly in error, let me know and I can notify Morningstar to make a correction in their data.
For TJX, the revenue number does indeed come in at 6.9e+12. For two days, Morningstar kept it at that erroneous level and then corrected it 2 days later. So two problems here: 1) Morningstar generated bad data. It happens and you should expect it to happen on occasion and likely defend against it in your algos. 2) We don't seem to be processing Morningstar's subsequent correction. We'll have to dig into why. I've submitted a ticket for our engineers to dig in further on this particular non-update issue.
Thanks so much,
Josh
