View Investment With Positions

From any View Client Screen, click on the Investments Tab.  Double click on one of the accounts, and then double click on one of the investments.  Click on the Positions Tab.

View Investment With Positions Overview

Positions are downloaded using the Investment Download Modules, so you will only see positions in this screen if you are downloading this investment.

Positions create Reconcile Transactions when Advisors Assistant is out of balance to the position.  You can modify these Reconcile Transactions and view reconcile transactions created using the View/Modify Reconciled Positions feature.

If you are getting too many reconciles with very small share amounts, you can set the tolerance for the comparison at either the system level or the individual security level.

If you are downloading this investment, you'll see a list of positions that have been provided by the Download Source (i.e. DST FAN Mail, Pershing.)

You can edit information about the investment by clicking anywhere in the top half of the View Screen.

Click on the RightLeftArrowButtons arrows to move forward and backward through the investments within that account.

Click on PlusButton to add a new investment to this account.

Click anywhere on the top half of the screen to update information for this investment.

Click on RecalcRORButton to update the Rate of Return for the investment.

Sort the list by clicking at the top of any of the column in the list. Once click sorts A-Z, 1-9 and a second click will reverse the order.

Change the width of any column on the list by dragging the column border in the title to the desired width.  Advisors Assistant will remember the column size for each user.

See other views by clicking on the tabs at the bottom of the screen.

Print a report of the information on the screen by clicking the Quick Report Button.

Export the data on the screen to Excel by clicking the Excel Action Button.

Return to the View Client Screen by clicking on the Client Tab at the bottom left.

ListExpanderButton Expanding Your Lists

If the list in the bottom half of the View Screen is too long to fit on the screen, you can expand the list by clicking on the List Expander Button (ListExpanderButton) located in the bottom right corner of every View Screen.

Adding and Modifying Positions

Positions can only be added through the Investment Downloads.

Positions cannot be modified, but the reconciled transaction resulting from the position can be modified.

Allowing positions to be modified would destroy the audit trail from the clearing firm.
