#### **Overview: Report Configuration**

![Report Configuration](https://connect.arkpes.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Report%20Configuration.png?width=670&height=279&name=Report%20Configuration.png)

The Report Configuration tab controls the layout and content of Capital Account (PCAP) statements. These are the downloadable reports available to LPs from their Capital Accounts section. Users can choose to download these as PDF or Excel files.

The configuration includes:

- Report Header Layout: Logo, fund name, investor name, and alignment
- Summary Line Items: Inception-to-date figures (e.g., Commitment, Paid In Capital)
- Body Line Items: Add additional line items broken out by quarter and year for transaction-level reporting, subtotal lines may be added as well
  
    - **It is vitally important that all transactions from the Transaction Register that affect value are included in the Report Body Line Items section, and that these transactions are only used once (unless in a subtotaled section). This ensures the report will always correctly foot.**

#### **Step-by-Step: Setting Up the PCAP Template**

1. Navigate to the **Report Configuration** tab in Client Configuration
2. Select an existing template from the dropdown or click **Create New Template**
3. Select 1 or more funds that will use this report setup
4. In the **Report Header Layout**, set up your branding and positioning for:
   
     - Fund name
     - Investor name
     - Logo
5. Scroll to the **Summary Configuration** section
   
     - Click **Add Row** to create a new line item
     - Enter the **Label** (e.g., "Committed Capital")
     - Choose the related transaction or metric
     - Set the appropriate **Date Range** (e.g., Inception to Date)
     - Select the associated **Bucket** if applicable
6. Continue to the **Body Configuration** section
   
     - Add line items to show quarterly or annual breakdowns
     - Organize sections using indenting and subtotaling as needed
     - Format rows using bold, underline, or double underline
7. Confirm all line items reference only one transaction type unless they are subtotaled
8. Click **Save and Continue** to apply the configuration

#### **FAQ**

**Q: Can I reference a metric in a PCAP statement?**  
A: Yes. Once a metric is added in Transaction Mapping, it will appear in the dropdowns in the Summary and Body sections.

**Q: Can I re-order the summary or body items?**  
A: Yes. Use the order in which rows are listed in the template; this order will be reflected in the final report.

**Q: How do I apply formatting like bold or underline?**  
A: Use Excel-style formatting when building the template; this will be reflected in the generated statement.
