Eagle’s mutual fund accounting solution uses the Intraday NAV Processing Rule associated with a master fund in place of a Class Allocation rule to identify the ledger account ranges for each NAV sequence for class allocations and NAV calculation as well as the original pricing source for each intraday NAV sequence.

The Intraday NAV Processing Rule is a global rule that you can attach to multiple entities. You use the NAV processing rule to determine how many intraday NAV periods are present. Each NAV period has its own NAV sequence name, class allocation rule, and original pricing source. You also determine which NAV sequence is the final valuation sequence in the intraday NAV processing rule.

After you create intraday NAV processing rules, you can assign those rules to the master funds eligible for intraday NAV processing.

WRITERS NOTE: does NAV1 have multiple sequence values or just one?

Create Class Allocation Rules to Associate with the Intraday NAV Processing Rule

Before you create an intraday NAV processing rule, create the class allocation rule that you plan to associate with each sequence in the intraday NAV processing rule. The NAV calculation process allows you to calculate and store a NAV for each intraday sequence based on a set ledger account range. When the system calculates NAVs for an intraday NAV period, the ledger account range used for each NAV calculation sequence is based on the class allocation rule set up for each sequence.

You can set up a class allocation rule or use an existing one. You can also use the same rule for each sequence. For information on setting up a class allocation rule, see Manage Allocation Rules. When you create a class allocation rule for use with intraday NAV processing, you can set the Activity Type to Intraday.

Create an Intraday NAV Processing Rule

In the Create/Update Intraday NAV Processing Rule panel, you use the Add option to create a new intraday NAV processing rule for use with intraday NAV processing, and set up the NAV sequences for that rule.

You After you submit the panel with the Add option to create a new intraday NAV processing rule, you can also use this panel’s Update option to add additional rule criteria for an exisiting that existing intraday NAV processing rule. For example, after you add an intraday NAV processing rule and set up the NAV1 sequence with a sequence of 1, you can update that intraday NAV processing rule and set up a NAV2 sequence with a sequence of 2.

WRITERS NOTE: review intro. Do you have to Submit the Add before you can use the Update?
WRITERS NOTE: I added a row and submitted. Then tried to add 2 update rows at the same time and was only able to add row for sequence 2. Can you add only one sequence at a time within a Submit with the sequence in order?

To create an intraday NAV processing rule:

  1. In Accounting Center, in the left navigation pane, click Setup > Fund Accounting Valuations Create/Update Intraday NAV Processing Rule.
    You see the Create/Update Intraday NAV Processing Rule panel.

  2. In the Add/Update NAV Processing Rule list, indicate whether you are adding or updating an intraday NAV processing rule. Options include:
    - Add. Default. Allows you to create a new intraday NAV processing rule and enter related rule criteria.
    - Update. Allows you to enter additional rule criteria for an existing intraday NAV processing rule.

  3. Do one of the following:
    - If you are adding a new rule, in the Intraday NAV Processing Rule box, specify the name of the intraday NAV processing rule. 
    - If you are updating an existing intraday processing rule, select the rule identifier in the Allocation Rule ID field lookup.

  4. In the Intraday NAV Sequence Name field lookup, select the intraday NAV sequence name for the NAV period associated with the intraday NAV processing rule.
    Options include:  
    - NAV1
    - NAV2
    - NAV3
    - NAV4

  5. In the Intraday NAV Sequence box, specify a numeric value for the intraday NAV sequence for the NAV period associated with the intraday NAV processing rule. Options include 1 to 5.
    For example, if you have intraday NAV periods for a rule with a sequence of 1, 2, and 3, the system uses the sequence to determine the order in which you can run intraday NAV calculations.

  6. In the Original Price Source field lookup, select the pricing original source for the intraday NAV sequence.

  7. In the Class Allocation Rule field lookup, select the class allocation rule for the intraday NAV sequence.
    The class allocation rule identifies a ledger account range used to calculate class allocations and total net assets for each NAV sequence.

  8. In the Intraday NAV Time box, you can ???WRITERS NOTE: definition?associate a time with each NAV run.
    For example, you can add NAV1 with a time of 10 a.m. This field is a description only that shows the time that you calculate this NAV, but it does not affect processing.

  9. In the Final NAV list, select a value to indicate whether the NAV sequence is the final sequence processed for the businss business day.
    Options include:
    - Yes. The NAV sequence is the final sequence processed for the business day.
    - No. Default. The NAV sequence is not the final sequence processed for the business day.

  10. If you want to define multiple NAV sequences for the intraday processing rule, use the pane at the bottom of the panel, as follows: 
    - Click the lower pane. 
    - Right-click and select Add Rows
    - Enter the number of rows you want to add in the Enter Rows Count dialog box and click OK. You need to add a row for each additional sequence you want to associate with the tier rule. 
    - Complete the fields on each row you added.

  11. Click Submit.
