What Happens After You Upload

You never import blind. After AllInvestView detects the Charles Schwab format, it shows a review screen where every row is grouped, editable and confirmed by you before anything is saved:

Trades Dividends Cash Options
  • GroupedRows are sorted into buys/sells, dividends, cash movements and options so you can see exactly what will be booked.
  • EditableFix a currency, quantity or date inline before confirming — nothing is written until you approve the batch.
  • De-duplicatedRe-upload an overlapping export and AllInvestView skips rows it has already imported, so you can safely import year-by-year files without creating duplicate trades.

Charles Schwab Gotchas & How We Handle Them

Auto-handled Check on review Needs your action

TD Ameritrade legacy rows

Auto-handled

Post-migration accounts may contain TDA-formatted history. Both Schwab and TDA layouts are parsed.

Reinvested dividends are two events

Auto-handled

A DRIP shows as a dividend plus a small "Reinvest" buy. Both import so your cost basis and income stay correct.

US date format

Auto-handled

"03/04/2026" is 4 March in Schwab's US format, and the importer reads it that way.
