: : : : Is it possible to produce a report with the following columns (in this order):security, quantity, unit cost, total cost, price, market value, percent of assets, unit income, annual income, and yield? Can the column headings be re-named?

: : : : Thanks.

: : : Yes, this would be using the Custom report. There is no "annual income" field, but you can set the date range to 1 year and request the interest income. The column headings cannot be renamed. You can place the columns in any order you want. For a link to all the available fields in the custom report, see:

: : As an example could you indicate which field would produce the "unit cost" column?

: : Thanks.

:
: "Unit Cost" can be calculated in a variety of ways. It could be your "out of pocket" cost, or a "tax basis" cost, and use any of several accounting methods to calculate the tax cost basis. So, you could look at these fields:

: OOP basis per share (current)
: OOP basis per share (inception)
: Tax basis per share, AVG (ending)
: Tax basis per share, FIFO (ending)
: Tax basis per share, Specific Lot

: For a greater description on any of these, see the descriptions on this page:

Mr. Beiley:

I am considering the purchase of your system and may very well do so; but in all honesty it would be much more attractive if simple reports, such as the one I outlined in my first posting, were more straight-forward to produce. Also, being able to customize the column headings would be an added plus.

Thanks.
