You can customise the columns in your Summary grid by clicking the Configuration icon:On the Configuration screen, click the
icon to unhide or hide default columns. Note you can hover over a column name to see a description of how LUSID calculates its value:
You can click Add column to add the following:
Queryable keys, displaying portfolio-level values for one or more queryable addresses (such as a metric)
Properties from the
DerivedValuation
domainSpecial cash effect
DerivedValuation
properties, displaying the impact of any proposed orders on a cash bucket within the portfolio
To configure a cash effect property, you must decorate your desired DerivedValuation
property with the PropertyDefinition/default/RebalanceCashValue
property, and set the value to True
. See how to add a property to a property type.
Note: Cash effect properties must have a Data Type value of Numeric and return values in the portfolio base currency. The column always displays the portfolio base currency, regardless of if you select an alternative Currency in the dashboard.
Upon adding your cash effect property and operation to the Summary grid, LUSID displays the following columns for you:
Starting <DisplayName>
Starting <DisplayName> %
Final <DisplayName>
Final <DisplayName> %
For example, imagine a portfolio uses sub-holding keys to segregate cash into different strategies. You could decorate the following derived valuation property Strategy B Cash with the RebalanceCashValue
property:
In response to adding the property, with an Operation value of Sum, to the Summary grid, the grid displays the bucket amount:
Prior to any proposed trades, as Starting Strategy B Cash Σ
Prior to any proposed trades as a percentage of the total portfolio PV, as Starting Strategy B Cash Σ %
Including the effect of any proposed trades, as Final Strategy B Cash Σ
Including the effect of any proposed trades as a percentage of the total portfolio PV, as Final Strategy B Cash Σ %
