06. Create a report for the client – summary by supplier

Objective

Generate a structured report to visualize a customer’s assets grouped by financial institution (vendor), making it easier to understand investments across multiple entities.

Prerequisites

  • Be logged in to your VieFund advisor account.
  • Have selected the client’s file to be analyzed.

Step 1: Document Generation

  1. From the customer reports menu, select the option for “Account Summary by Vendor”.
  2. Click the button to generate the PDF.

Step 2: Analysis of the distribution by supplier

The report organizes the data to provide a segmented view:

  • Grouping by institution: Accounts are listed under the name of their respective provider (e.g., Assumption, Equitable, etc.).
  • Account details: For each provider, you can view the different types of accounts held (e.g., an RRSP and a TFSA grouped under the same provider).
  • Special cases: Specific information, such as that relating to an RESP, is also isolated for quick reading.

Step 3: Reading Performance by Category

The report allows you to quickly identify the performance of each type of asset within the accounts:

  • Rate of return: Observe the growth percentages for each bottom line.
  • Sector analysis: Visualize performance by the nature of the securities (e.g., distinguish between U.S. stocks, which can offer high returns, and bonds that can yield around 4-5%).

Step 4: Using the Report

  1. Use this document to explain to the client where their overall returns are coming from.
  2. Print or save the file for the customer’s file or for secure shipping.

💡 Helpful Tip: This report is particularly popular with clients who have a diversified portfolio across multiple institutions because it simplifies a financial structure that may seem complex at first.
