Working with portfolios includes the following tasks:
You use the Portfolio Management module to define portfolios, schedule the generation of portfolio statistics, and graph, print, and export the results of portfolio events. You use the Financial Analysis feature of the Customer Analysis module to compare a customer's financials to Financial Benchmark portfolio data, or to generate Expert Comments. Expert Comments are based on either Financial Benchmark or Standard Financial portfolios. You can assign a portfolio to a customer by selecting the portfolio in the Analysis Setup section of the customer's Basic screen. When you assign a portfolio to a customer, the portfolio appears first in all portfolio lists for that customer.
