Open the report

Go to Tax Reporting → Capital Gains. Use the FY dropdown in the header to pick your year.

Capital gains report with short-term and long-term parcel tables

Read the summary

The Summary card splits your gains two ways:

Non-discountable (“Other”) — short-term gains, with losses applied, and a subtotal.
Discountable (“Discount”) — long-term gains, with losses applied, the CGT concession, and your Net capital gain.

Read the parcel tables

Table	Parcels held
Short term capital gains	12 months or less
Long term capital gains	More than 12 months

Each row shows:

Column	What it means
Symbol	The ticker and exchange
Sale allocation method	The method used — FIFO, Minimise CGT, and so on
Purchase date / Sale date	The holding period
Sold quantity	The units you disposed of
Cost basis / Sale value	The amounts in AUD
