This article explains how to use the Interactive Dividend Payment Calendar, an analytical tool designed to help you track and monitor your historical and projected daily dividend income metrics.

Locating and Viewing the Calendar

You'll find the Dividend Table in your Portfolio section under the Dividend Income tab. This section is dedicated to providing a comprehensive view of your income-generating assets.

Calendar Navigation

The calendar allows you to easily move through your dividend history and future projections:

  • Month-by-Month: Use the left and right arrow buttons to navigate to the previous or next month.

  • Month Year Selector: Clicking on the Month Year label (e.g., "August 2025") opens a dedicated modal, allowing you to quickly jump to any specific month and year within the allowed range.

Date Range and Parameters

The calendar's viewable range is dynamic to focus on relevant data periods:

  • Historical Limit: Navigation begins with the earliest month for which you have recorded (earned) dividend data.

  • Projections Limit: You may view projections through December of the next calendar year. This limit shifts automatically as the calendar year changes.

Understanding Dividend Categories

The calendar utilizes visual indicators to distinguish between different types of dividend data:

  • Earned Dividends: Dividends that have been officially paid and recorded in your account.

  • Announced Dividends: Dividends that have been declared by the issuing company but have not yet reached the payment date.

  • Forecast Dividends: Estimates based on historical payment patterns and current holdings. These are for analytical purposes and have not yet been officially announced by the company.

Viewing a Detailed Daily Breakdown

To review a detailed list of metrics for a specific day, click on any date box within the active month to open the Daily Dividend Detail modal.
