Information used by the workflow

  • Sales with losses and instrument identity
  • Position lots and replacement activity windows
  • Quantity and basis-adjustment records
  • Taxable versus retirement-account context where recorded

Important boundaries

Automated detection depends on complete, correctly classified records. Instrument identity and account treatment can require professional judgment; review source statements before using results.

A useful reconciliation order

  • Confirm account classifications
  • Import the full review period
  • Resolve duplicate or unmatched trades
  • Review detected events against broker statements
