Portfolio Value - add fields or make custom report?

[binto100]

Hi Mark.
Newbie here.
1) The Portfolio Value report has five columns including Investment Name. Is it possible to add columns to this report? I want to put various IRA's in one sub-portfolio and then organize and see them by description (traditional, Roth, rollover etc.).
2) If the Portfolio Value report cannot be modified, I'd like to setup a Custom report effective on a single date but it seems that a custom report must have a begin and end date. Is there a single date custom report?
Thank you.

Hi Bruce,

1) You can't add "columns" to the Portfolio Value report. You could create a Custom report with these same columns, plus any additional ones you want. However, if you just want to see a breakdown of the existing columns by sub-portfolio it isn't necessary to add columns. Just sub-total by sub-portfolio and set up your sub-portfolio hierarchy with the organization you want to view. For example:

Code: Select all

- Master Portfolio
  - Traditional
  - Roth
  - Rollover

You will see sub-totals for each of these. If you want help setting up sub-portfolios, you might like to see our Sub-Portfolios Tutorial.

2) You always have to specify both a start/end date for a Custom report, but you don't have to use them in the report. You can create a Custom report and add fields that only use the ending date, so the beginning date will be unused. For example:

Share price (ending)
Shares (ending)
Value (ending)
