Wealth Axis Wizards - Review Report: Portfolio Review Report (Bulk)

Portfolio Review Report (Bulk) Overview

The Portfolio Review Report Wizard enables you to easily merge a customised Portfolio Review Report (PRR) for the selected client that is pre-populated with their data recorded in XPLAN. You can:

  • Produce a single report for a couple, or for a couple and their related entities.
  • Produce consolidated reports for your client’s portfolios, providing a combined view of the accounts and assets held by the client, their spouse and related entities.
  • Select/deselect the portfolio reports to be included, and how you’d like the information to be displayed in the client’s merged report.
  • Select/deselect other sections to be included in the report, such the client’s goals and objectives, attitude to investing, insurance, and estate planning.
  • Nominate the reporting start and end dates.
  • Include a Tax File Number (TFN) Consent Form and Electronic Consent Form at the end of the merged PRR.

 

What’s more, you have the flexibility to include two of each of the Portfolio (IPS) Reports with different date ranges and grouping preferences, as required. For example, you could include two Portfolio Valuations for comparison purposes – one for year ending 30 June 2017 grouped by Position, and one for year ending 31 December 2017 grouped by Product.

You also have the ability to select your Practice’s ‘My Business’ Cover Letter and preferred header and footer to be displayed on merged PRRs. To find out how, in the Zendesk go to Custom Settings:

  • Your Practice Cover Letters
  • Your Practice logos

Did you know that you can also merge PRRs for groups of clients in bulk? To find out more, in Zendesk go to Reports > Portfolio Review Report (Individual).

Note: The option to include Morningstar Research reports is not available when merging PRRs for your clients in bulk

Review Report Section
Where do I find the client's data in XPLAN

Key Details > Goals & Objectives
Net Position Table

Financial Details > Assets & Liabilities

Financial Details > Superannuation

Portfolios > Portfolio > Position (Account name and Balance only)

Attitude to Investing

Troubleshooting

My client’s superannuation and pension accounts are displayed as Investment Assets

Superannuation and pension accounts recorded in Portfolios (IPS) (at Portfolios > Portfolio > Position) will be displayed in the Investment Assets section of the Net Position table if they are not linked to a superannuation or pension record in Client Focus (at Financial Details > Superannuation).
 
My client’s Portfolios (IPS) Account is not displayed in their review report

There are two possible reasons for why the client’s Portfolios (IPS) Account is not displayed in their review report:
  1.  If the IPS account has been linked to a record in Client Focus, the status of the Client Focus record (in Financial Details) must be Active:

    Screen_Shot_2018-07-24_at_12.08.40_PM.png
  2. Portfolio filtering may been applied to the client’s IPS Account. To find out more, in the Zendesk go to Portfolio (IPS) > Portfolio Report > Portfolio Filtering.
 
An underlying holding in my client’s Portfolios (IPS) Account is not displayed in their review report

Portfolio filtering has been applied to the underlying holdings of the client’s IPS Account. To find out more, in the Zendesk go to Portfolio (IPS) > Portfolio Report > Portfolio Filtering.
