When you use month end processing with Eagle’s mutual fund accounting solutions, the system can create month end ledger balances for transactions considered as-of activity. For this process, as-of activity consists of transactions that occur anytime after a daily valuation period is closed, usually around a month-end period, where the Accounting Date and the Monthly Accounting Date differ.
