Leaving Fidelity Full View is a change to your financial dashboard, not automatically a move of your Fidelity investments. Preserve the records you need, test the replacement view and only then remove connections you no longer want.

Fidelity's current Full View FAQ describes a redesigned experience with linked and manual accounts, spending categories and financial views. A useful exit plan preserves the information you need from both the dashboard and the underlying institutions. This is a record-preservation and reconciliation guide; available exports and their contents should be checked in your own version. Fidelity Full View FAQ, reviewed September 26, 2026

First decide what you are leaving

There are at least three different changes a reader may have in mind: stop using the dashboard, revoke a connection to an outside institution, or transfer an investment account. Treating them as one operation can lead to unnecessary work.

Change What it affects What it does not establish
Stop using Full View Your day-to-day dashboard workflow That every existing connection is revoked
Remove a linked account A particular data relationship That underlying assets have moved
Transfer a brokerage account Custody at the institutions involved That dashboard history migrates with it
Close an underlying account The financial account itself A requirement for trying another analysis tool

If your Fidelity brokerage account works well, you can keep it while evaluating a separate financial application. Mezzi is not a receiving brokerage and does not require selling investments to test supported account connections.

Build a record inventory before touching connections

Start with the information you would miss if the dashboard were unavailable tomorrow. A current net-worth total is only one item. Personal categories, manual assets, notes and historical comparisons may require different preservation methods.

Create a simple inventory with one row per account or record type:

Record Preferred reference Replacement check
Current holdings and balances Institution statement and current account view Account identity, date and balance agree
Investment tax information Institution tax forms and basis records Kept separately from dashboard exports
Spending history Available transaction export or statements Dates, categories and transfers reconciled
Manual property or private assets Your valuation notes and supporting documents Value, ownership and valuation date preserved
Custom rules or labels Written inventory or available export Recreated only where the new tool supports them

A dashboard file is not necessarily a complete tax or accounting record. Keep original institution documents even when an application provides a convenient export.

Save the available dashboard records and fill gaps at the source

In your current Full View version, identify the available export for the particular record you need. Specify the account and period when asking Fidelity support about transactions, balances, categories, holdings or historical net worth. Availability of one type does not establish a complete archive of the others.

Open every saved file before disconnecting. Record its date range, included accounts and download date. Check representative entries, including a purchase, transfer and refund. Preserve personal rules or manual-asset notes separately if the file does not include them.

For anything missing, go to the underlying institution or request the appropriate records from its support team:

Missing information Record to obtain Verification before ending dashboard access
Historical bank or card activity Statements and available transaction downloads for the intended period First and last dates, account identity and representative transactions
Investment holdings Dated account statement and current positions Security identity and quantity; do not compare market values from different dates as though they were identical
Investment basis or tax reporting Available lot/basis records and applicable tax documents Missing or inconsistent values raised with the institution or tax professional
Retirement-plan history Plan statements, contribution records and available transaction history Employer plan and period correctly identified
Manual property or private asset Your supporting valuation and ownership records Owner, share, estimate date and source retained
Dashboard-only categories or rules A written inventory or supported export Meaning preserved even if the destination uses different labels

For example, request “January through December statements and available transaction history for the account ending 1234,” rather than a nonspecific complete-data request. Do not send credentials. If a provider cannot supply a period or field, record the exact gap and how it affects your intended analysis.

Keep original records unchanged and use copies for edits or imports. Confirm destination import support separately. Mezzi account connections do not establish that a Full View archive, custom categories or historical reports can be imported.

Test the next application against a real question

Mezzi groups supported financial information into Investments, Banking, Other Assets and Liabilities. You can include goals and preferences through AI Personalization and investigate supported fund exposure with Exposure X-Ray. Mezzi account groups

Begin with one question that Full View currently leaves unresolved. For example: “How does my employer stock exposure relate to my retirement funds, given that this savings balance is reserved for a home repair?” Confirm the relevant accounts and explain the cash purpose before judging the answer.

This is a stronger evaluation than connecting accounts and assuming a polished dashboard proves completeness. Check missing institutions, manual assets, freshness and any field that materially affects the decision.

Mezzi Free includes aggregation and limited AI. Advisory is $399 annually and Concierge $999 annually. Full View users should recognize that adding a paid tool creates a new expense; the additional workflow needs to justify it. Mezzi pricing

Reconcile a small sample before expanding

Choose a recent statement date and compare the same accounts in the old view, the new view and the institution record. If totals differ, investigate account coverage and dates before concluding that one application is wrong.

For spending, check a few representative transactions: a purchase, a credit-card payment, an internal transfer and a refund. A classification difference can distort spending without changing the underlying bank balance. Record any adjustments so you can repeat the check later.

For manual assets, record who owns the asset and when it was valued. A new entry should not silently turn an old estimate into a current appraisal. The new application may present the same information differently; preserve the meaning, not just the number.

Disconnect only the relationship you intend to end

Once the replacement is useful and your records are preserved, use the current controls and documentation for the relevant Full View connection. If you also want to revoke a third-party authorization, review the institution's connected-app settings or support guidance. Avoid assuming that deleting an app from a device completes every data-removal step.

Review the privacy terms of both services for stored information and retention. Account disconnection, deletion of a dashboard and deletion of historical records can have different effects. Mezzi's privacy policy also describes retention and service-provider processing; no finance application should be evaluated as though connection removal guarantees instant erasure of every record. Mezzi privacy policy

Separate a balance check from a history check

Suppose Full View and your institution both show $25,000 in a bank account today. That agreement does not prove the new tool has last year's transactions or your old categories. Current balances, spending history and investment tax records are separate layers of the financial record.

Layer Suitable acceptance test
Current account picture Compare institution, account identity, balance and date
Spending history Verify one selected month against source records and check transfer treatment
Categories and manual notes Preserve a small sample and verify whether the destination can recreate the meaning
Investment history and basis Obtain institution records; do not assume a spending download contains tax lots

Fidelity's public FAQ confirms that Full View has a redesigned experience. Export controls and available history therefore need to be checked in the version you actually use. This guide does not promise that one download recreates every Full View record. Fidelity Full View FAQ

If a required record cannot be exported from your version, preserve the underlying institution's statement and note the exact gap. Test the next application's current connection independently. That gives you a defensible stopping point: the records required for your ongoing financial decisions remain available even if the old and new dashboards do not reproduce identical reports.

Know when the move is complete

The move is complete when you can find the old records you need, explain the new totals and answer the financial question that motivated the change. It is not complete merely because every new account connection shows a successful status.

If export or deletion behavior remains unclear in your version, resolve that specific point with Fidelity before removing access. Keeping a functioning dashboard for a short verification period is usually more useful than rushing to recreate information afterward.

Frequently asked questions

Does leaving Full View move my Fidelity investments?

No. A dashboard change is separate from a brokerage transfer. Investment assets stay at their institutions unless you separately authorize a transfer or other account action.

Can I export every Full View record in one file?

Do not assume one file contains every record. Check the available export by record type and period, preserve dashboard-only notes separately, and obtain missing statements or investment records from the underlying institution.

Can Mezzi import my Full View archive?

Do not assume that it can. Confirm supported import formats separately; connecting institutions is different from importing dashboard history.

What should I preserve first?

Keep institution statements and tax records, available transaction history, manual-asset valuations and any personal categories or rules you would need to recreate.

Test a supported account connection and reconcile the figures before changing the financial view you rely on.
