Where do I enter advisor or account management fees?

Where to find it: ACCOUNTS and INVESTMENTS → Edit Cash; or Edit Investments → Cash → Edit

Enter account-wide fees on the account’s Cash investment. Open ACCOUNTS and INVESTMENTS, choose Edit Investments for the account, then Edit beside Cash. For an account containing only Cash, use Edit Cash directly.

Enter a fixed annual account maintenance fee in the dollar field, or an annual percentage fee in the percentage field. A percentage maintenance fee applies to the account’s holdings, not just to the cash portion. This is where a robo-advisor or advisor fee charged on the whole account belongs.

For example, enter an annual 0.5% management charge as 0.5 in the percentage maintenance-fee field. Do not repeat that same charge on every ETF. If an ETF also charges its own MER, enter that separately on the ETF and indicate whether its expected returns already include it.
