A maintenance event is available in V17 R2.49 and above to perform a one-time update of the position fields that are critical for AltsPrivate Market investments. This is typically used by new clients when converting Alts positions using the Point in Time method or existing clients upgrading from releases prior to V17 R2.36. It is processed as an adjustment with an Event Type (55) of UPDATEPE. Exercise caution when running the event in production as it directly updates the object with the values submitted and no additional edit checks are applied. It requires administrator access to run manually from Accounting Center > Setup > Admin > STAR Object (BLOB) Maintenance > Update Private Equity Fields or in bulk via Batch Uploader.

The maintenance event cannot be run for an Effective Date (35) when the position has subsequent transaction activity booked in Eagle Accounting unless the subsequent activity is canceled first. It can be run “as of” for a previous date. The best practice is to run it over the weekend or first thing Monday morning with an Effective Date (35) of Saturday or Sunday. This ensures the position is up to date and ready for any transactions that come in from Monday onward, while also isolating the impact of the maintenance event to a date when there is unlikely to be other activity.

If a maintenance event is processed with incorrect values, it can be canceled using Accounting Center > Setup > Admin > STAR Object (BLOB) Maintenance > Cancel Private Equity Maintenance Event. This reverts the position to its previous Private Market fields back to zero, allowing the event to be reprocessed with the correct values.
