The Position Performance report aggregates performance, holdings, and transactions data to provide details about how an account or group achieved the reported returns. On the report, you can see a granular breakdown of returns for specific securities alongside transaction data like inflows and outflows, income and expenses, and change in value of securities held and sold.

The Position Performance report is often used in conjunction with the Account Performance report to see the impact of individual securities within the larger context of overall portfolio performance.
