Trading Statuses, Alerts, and Messages

The Rebalance page was built from the ground up to help you manage trading and rebalancing work. Because you might have to manage many accounts in many stages of the trading workflow, you can use the following tools to find out more about rebalances, review their statuses, and read important messages.

Trading Statuses in the Workflow State Column

Add the Workflow State column to any page to get an overview of where any given account or group is in the rebalance workflow.

Filter by this column to efficiently take action on all the accounts in a particular state. You can pre-set column filters in the view so that when you select a view, the page loads with preset column filters already applied.

Or filter columns on the fly as you use the page.

The following are possible workflow states:

Workflow State Meaning
Needs attention

Account or group with an account that is unable to rebalance. Causes can include cash issues, trade restrictions, directed trades, and trades on hold. Review the Rebalance Status messages for more details.

Initial State Accounts or groups have no trades currently applied. Includes accounts with trades on hold where the trades on hold are not currently applied to the account.
Rebalanced Accounts or groups have at least one trade currently applied where the trade has not been approved by a user with the highest approval level and at least one trade applied to the account is not on hold.
Approved Accounts or groups that have at least one trade currently applied where the trade has been approved by a user with the highest approver level, and none of the trades currently applied to the account have been logged.
Orders Logged Accounts or groups where all trades currently applied have been logged.
All Trades on Hold Accounts where all trades currently applied are on hold and groups where all trades currently applied in all underlying accounts are on hold. Does not include groups where all trades in one underlying account are on hold and another underlying account has active trades that are not on hold.

Trading Alerts

If there's an account with a current trading note, you'll receive a banner warning at the top of the Rebalance page with a link to download a bulk report. If you download that bulk report, it will contain active trading alerts, pending order notes, and restriction override notes.

This banner lets you see current trading notes without having to leave the page or view individual accounts.

Rebalance Status Messages

Click the status in an account's Rebalance Status column to see all the warnings, errors, and informational messages associated with the account's current rebalance.

Work With Page Views

Page views are pre-configured views of the page. For example, you may create one account view that filters out closed accounts, and another that contains closed accounts. With page views, you can create several customized views of your data, choosing which columns appear and in what order so that you can make more informed decisions.

To learn more about views, see:

You can use the following features within page views to filter the page, customize columns, and save those configurations for future use: 

Save a View with Prefiltered Columns

When you edit a view on the Rebalance page, you can preset filters for specific columns in your saved view. Whenever you apply that saved view, the page will load with that column already filtered. For more information, see Configure Column Filters in Page Views and Using Page Views.

Apply Current Settings

The Apply Current Settings feature lets you update the view based on any filters you have applied to the page currently, then save those settings as part of your current view or a new view.

Example

You filter the Workflow State column to only show accounts with the Needs Attention status, so you apply that filter to the column: 

You decide that you'd like to save your current view so that it always has this Workflow State filter applied, so you go to Views and click Edit.

When you click Apply Current Settings, the All Accounts view will now always filter the Workflow State column to only show accounts with the Needs Attention status.

Filter and Customize the Rebalance Page

Rebalance page views and filters let you customize the way you see the page and save those settings for use later. With views and filters, you customize how your data looks to help you make more informed decisions.

Filter and Sort the Page

The Rebalance page is highly customizable. You can use multiple modes of filtering and sorting to help you find the accounts and groups you want to interact with. You can filter the entire page by saved search and account set. You can also filter individual columns to only show certain values.

These are the ways you can filter the Rebalance page:

Account Set and Saved Search Filters

Use the Account Filters lists to filter the page by saved searches and account sets.

Sort Columns

Sort data in columns by ascending or descending order. For more information, see Sort and Filter Columns on Pages in Tamarac.

By default, the page sorts alphabetically by Account Name.

Expand or Collapse All Groups

To expand or collapse all the groups on the page, click .

Work With Columns

You can filter individual columns to narrow the accounts shown. For example, you can filter the Workflow State column to only show accounts with Needs Attention or narrow the Cash ($) column to only show accounts with between $1,000 and $5,000 cash.

When you select Use Group Values for a filter, the group will only show if the group value meets your criteria. When you clear Use Group Values, The group will show if the group or at least one underlying account within the group meets your filter criteria.

Additionally, you can use the (Blanks) value to find accounts or groups that don't have any values within a column.

You can also filter for specific dates and date ranges when viewing columns that have a date. This filter allows you to do the following: 

Click to interact with the filter for a given column, then click Filter to filter the page.

Edit or Remove Filters

To keep track of what filters are applied, look for the applied filter list. You'll see one for each filter applied, including from the Account Filters menu, preset column filters, and on-the-fly column filters.

Use the applied filter list to:

Freeze Columns

Freeze columns on the left side of the page to keep track of what you're looking at.

To freeze columns, add the -Frozen Column Divider- column to a view. This will freeze all columns above the divider in the Select Columns list on the left side of the page.

Change Column Width

Manually or automatically resize columns to fit data. For more information, see Change Column Width on Pages in Tamarac.

Use Group Values

When calculating the value of some columns, the value shown for the group can be different than the value of underlying accounts. When you select the new Use Group Values option for that filter, the group will only show if the group value meets your criteria.

Navigate the Rebalance Page

The Rebalance page displays up to 1,000 records per page.

You can navigate to a specific page or move to next and previous pages.

Just as on other pages in Tamarac, you can also search for specific accounts.
