Note: Custom Tags can also be attached to the investment. For more information on how to create a custom tag, click here.

2. Search for the security from the search bar to locate the security and select Edit.
3. Under Asset Allocation tab, select Add Allocation,

Note
Method 1 - System and/or Custom Tag from Chart of Accounts will take priority over Method 2 - Asset Allocation. As a result, the chart of account tag will overwrite the asset allocation percentage where inconsistent.
How are Custom Tags Displayed in the Report?
Where system tags and asset allocations do not apply, users can choose to create a custom tag. For more information on how to do so, click here.
When a custom tag has been attached to an investment, the investment will be displayed under the 'Other' column of the Investment Strategy Comparison Report.
However, a detailed breakdown will be included in the footnote, when users toggle 'Display Custom Tag Breakdown' in the settings of the report.
