Online Menu
To assess the performance of your portfolio, it's essential to have historical prices or quotes for all securities. You can input these manually or, more conveniently, obtain them through a Quote Feed. This could be in the form of a table on a website or another online data source. With the menu Online these historical prices could be updated.
Update quotes
For all securities that are connected to an online quote feed provider, this command will trigger a request to the online service for the latest quotes ranging from the first historical quote to the present day.
Quotes that were previously downloaded but subsequently deleted will be reinstated. However, quotes that have been manually altered after online download or those in the historical prices table that are not available online (e.g., quotes in the distant past) will remain unchanged during this operation.
A message xxx operations remaining will appear briefly in the left bottom corner of the window, indicating the progress of the updating process. This process is conducted in the background and does not affect other operations.
Update quotes (only active securities)
Securities could be set to active or inactive in the Security Master Data tab of the Securities Attributes panel.
This command will update only the active securities.
Update quotes (selected security)
In a table view such as All Securities, one can select one or more securities. For a consecutive selection, click the first row, press Shift, and click the last row. For a non-consecutive selection, use the Ctrl key.
Even though the menu mentions "selected security", the update will be performed on all selected securities.
