Report Settings: Include Benchmarks

Use the Include Benchmark or Include Benchmarks check box, the benchmark list, and Add Benchmarks button to add the performance of one or more of an account, group, or category benchmarks as a data point for comparison on report tables and charts.

For reports with a Group by option, the Group by setting determines which benchmark you see. If you group by account, you'll see the benchmarks assigned to the group and accounts; if you group by Security Type, you'll see the benchmarks assigned to each security type.

On charts, your theme settings or PDF theme settings determine how the benchmark is marked.

You can choose:
