I never open the Advanced Portfolio report. For tax purposes, I set up my accounts to have individual income accounts for each brokerage (dividends, LT capital gains, and ST capital gains, typically) and then assigned each of these to the appropriate tax line in tax options. Then, the TXF report (changed to hide zero balance accounts and transaction detail) summarizes everything nicely.
Income - Dividends - - Broker A [assigned to Taxable dividend income] - - Broker B [assigned to Taxable dividend income] - Realized Gains - - Broker A - - - LT Capital Gains [assigned to Taxable LT gains] - - - ST Capital Gains [assigned to Taxable ST gains] - - Broker B - - - LT Capital Gains [assigned to Taxable LT gains] - - - ST Capital Gains [assigned to Taxable ST gains] David T.
