Step 2: A summary of the gains and losses for that account will display. From there, you can specify an amount and type of harvest to take.

Step 3: When ready, click on the Submit Request button to submit your service request.

For the Harvest Gain or Loss SR, please note that the Envestnet Platform will sell positions within an account based on our Maximizing Methodology (not the Accounting Methodology). If you have any questions and/or concerns, please contact your Service Team. Capital gain/loss data presented here is a general guide and should not be relied upon in the preparation of tax returns. It is strongly recommended that the Custodian data is reviewed on T+1 to ensure proper lot treatment.
