In the Global Process workspace, you can monitor the loopbacks associated with global process events.
About Loopbacks
In Eagle Accounting, global process events generate secondary events known as loopbacks. For example, when it processes a corporate action, the system first performs a query to determine which entities and securities are eligible for a given corporate action process based on the date range you entered. The query is considered the initial event. The secondary event, or loopback, is the actual processing of the corporate action based on the query results from the initial event.
Each time a loopback is created, the accounting engine writes a record to the ESTAR_LOOPBACK_EVENTS table. When the engine is finished processing the loopback, the record is updated. The Global Process workspace looks to this table to determine whether the engine has finished processing an event.
About Loopback Monitoring
From the Accounting Center's Accounting Desk, you can access the Global Process workspace where you can monitor the status of event loopbacks. The Global Process workspace is similar to Automation Center's Monitor workspace. But while the Monitor workspace shows activity for loopbacks, message streams, and jobs/events, the results in the Global Process workspace are filtered to show the status of loopbacks for global jobs.
To access and monitor loopbacks:
From the Accounting Center's Accounting Desk, click Global Process in the left navigation.
You see the Global Process workspace. It includes the following panes:
- Loopbacks Summary. Displays the loopback summary time frame and associated statistics including loopback status and high level totals
- Loopbacks Search Detail. Criteria used to search for jobs associated with loopbacks.
- Loopbacks. Displays the status of each job for the specified system date and other search criteria. Summary results show a row for each Message Type/Event Type combination.
- Loopback Details. Displays account and security details for the selected job. For each Message Type/Event Type combination of summary results you select in the Loopbacks pane, the Loopback Details pane displays detail information
You can query and review processed or pending jobs.
About the Loopback Processing Status
A loopback has one of the following processing status values. You can view a colored icon that represents the status for each row in the Loopback Details pane.
| Icon | Color | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Green | Processed | Loopback processed |
| Yellow | Pending | Loopback still submitting |
| Red | Rejected | Loopback processed with errors |
| Blue | Overridden | Loopback was overridden |
While a loopback is being processed, it is assigned a pending status 
. It may be in a pending status for less than a second or much longer, depending on the environment and other engine activity. When processing is completed, the loopback is assigned a Processed status 
or a Rejected status 
.
About Loopback Details
You can view loopback details by clicking the row for a specific global job in the Loopbacks pane.The Lookback Details pane shows the corresponding detailed information.
The detail from the STAR to PACE Batch job (Event Type = ADDMSTARPOS) is shown below in the bottom pane.
If the event is successfully processed, you can use the Position Viewer tool and Eagle reports to validate the accounting results. If the loopback failed, you can view rejection details in the Exceptions workspace and resolve any issues. After resolving the issues, you may need to resubmit the event.
