What does the “Reset View” button do?
The “Reset View” button restores the table columns size and order to the original default.
What is the “Results Summary”?
The “Results Summary” table shows the count and dollar amount of transactions displayed in the results table below. If a column displays a transaction count, but no dollar amount then the particular transactions do not have an associated value. For example, “Name Change” transactions do not have a dollar value but they will still be counted under “Corporate Actions.”
How can I download and print my transactions?
By selecting the Download & Print icon you will download the transactions for the selected date range into a spreadsheet. You can print all of the downloaded information by selecting Print.
The “Software Downloads” dropdown menu allows you to download your transaction history into .QFX, .OFX, and .QIF formats. You will be asked to select a date range.
How can I search by security or dollar range?
There are additional search criteria available below Step 2 in the “Filter” section of the Transaction History page. Select the down arrow next to “Additional Search Criteria” to search by dollar amount or security. To hide these additional criteria select the arrow again.
What is the “Show Cash Sweep Transactions” checkbox?
Select the checkbox under “Additional Search Criteria” to show cash sweep transactions. Cash sweep transactions reflect the movement of cash after certain types of transactions. These transactions are hidden by default since in most cases they are not directly initiated by you. For example, a $10 dividend that is paid to a folio is then moved to Cash as a purchase. To display these cash purchase transactions select the checkbox.
Why is the page taking long to return results?
If your account or folio has many transactions over the selected date range then the page could take extra time since there are many transactions to search through.
