Overview of Notes in Advisor Rebalancing |
These columns dynamically update when you edit trades, allowing you to see, in real time, the effect the trade will have on the underlying account:
Cash Above Reserves
Post Rebalance Dollars
Post Rebalance Cash (%)
Post Rebalance Percent
Post % of Category (DT)
For more information on adding these dynamic columns to the Trade Review, see Add Columns to See More Data.
After saving edited trades, the dynamically changing columns may show a slightly different value based on whether there were any fees or commissions associated with the edited trades. These associated costs, as well as any changes in trade price, aren't considered when the columns update in real time.
You can customize the Trade Review to see the information important to you and filter trades to see only those trades relevant to you. The following are the ways you can customize the Trade Review page.
To add columns to the page to see more information about each trade, click on the bottom right. This brings up the Choose Columns dialog box.

You can group trades on the Trade Summary and Trade Review by any column heading. For example, you can group by Action so that all sells are grouped, all buys are grouped, and so on.
When you group your trades, all numeric values will be summed for your top three groupings with the exception of Model Max and Model Min.
To group trades on the page, follow these steps:
Rest your mouse over the column you want to group by. Your mouse pointer will change to .
Press and hold your left mouse button and drag the column heading to the Drag a column header and drop it here to group by that column area. Release the mouse button.
You can add further customization by doing the following:
Remove a grouping: click on the grouping you want to remove.
Add additional levels of grouping: add additional columns using the procedure above to add up to three total grouping levels. For example, grouping by Account Name and Action.
Change the sort order of your grouping: click the up or down arrows to sort your groupings in ascending or descending order.

N/A |
An advisor is viewing the Trade Review page but only want to view trades where she is the primary advisor and a custom strategy has been applied. This will allow her to audit the trades that have been edited today before she approves those trades.
First, she uses the Saved Search filter and selects a saved search she already created to only view accounts that contain a custom strategy.
Next, she uses the Account Set filter to only view accounts where she is the primary advisor. Because an account set has already been created to include all accounts where she is primary advisor, she can filter this account set across Advisor Rebalancing.
By using these filters, she is able to get a narrowed view of only those trades she wants to review.
Colors can be assigned to buys and sells, which enables you to quickly identify them and associate them with related trades.
To add color to buys and sells, follow these steps:
Click in the lower-right corner.
Select your preferred colors on the Color for buys and Color for sells drop-down lists. You can choose any of the preselected colors. You can also click to select your own custom color.
To remove the selected color, click on the Color for buys and Color for sells drop-down lists.
Click Save.
