Before you can process transactions that use cash segregation, you must set up Eagle's Accounting solution for use with cash segregation.

...

Panels can supplement this data. These rules also determine how the system matches actual cash settlement records sent to the Eagle system from a bank, custodian, or third party to open receivables/payables in STAR accounting in order to create cash settlements in STAR accounting. See About Cash Matching based on Actual Cash Settlements.

...

Your exact setup tasks can vary. You can set up and view information for:

• Entities, accounting bases, and composites
• Custodian bank codes
• Cash accounts
• Entity bank relationships
• Cash account relationships
• Securities
• Transactions
• Segregated positions
• Cash balances stored in the ESTAR database and STAR to PACE Direct
• Transferring segregated quantity and cash between custodians of cash accounts
• Reports that track cash segregation information

Set Up to Accrue Interest on Cash Balances

...

• Interest on Cash Balances. Accrues interest on cash balances. It allows you to link an interest bearing asset (PST of CRINTC) to a cash account to accrue income and drop coupon payments on the cash balance.This method does not physically move the cash balance. The system creates a cash balance accrual position in the Cost object that has quantity but zero cost, and is not priced. The system processes accruals against the cash balance accrual position. See Set Up Cash Balance Accruals for  for more information. 
• Cash Account Level Cash Sweeps. Setup for cash sweeps occurs at the cash account level. Each individual cash account associated with an entity has the ability to sweep and can have different processing parameters. For each cash account you sweep, you define the sweep instrument along with the minimum balance to sweep. The cash sweep process then sweeps individual cash balances into custody level holdings where they accrue interest if the STIF instrument is an interest bearing asset. The system maintains principal and income balances throughout the cash sweep process. With this method, you sweep the segregated cash balance from a cash account into a sweep asset for a Money Market or other interest bearing account (PST of DBSTST or EQEQMF). See Manage Cash Sweeps for Cash Segregation for  for more information.

Be aware that Eagle clients who do not use cash segregation can set up cash sweeps at the entity level to accrue interest on cash balances. Entity-level cash sweeps have no impact on the CUST basis. See the Fixed Income Processing User Guide for general information about cash sweeps.

The bank alias, tag 16, is the instance number of the entity bank relationship that links the entity or entity group for the transaction to their assigned custodian bank code and custody bank account number. The system tries to assign a missing cash account using the following matching steps. If it meets the criteria it applies the cash account; otherwise, it continues to the next step.
