Manage Client Composites

You can group third party clients together to form a client composite by creating a parent-child relationship among client records. You can perform ISTAR reporting and refreshes at the client composite level once the relationship is established. After adding a client record to serve as the parent client, you relate the parent to multiple third party clients. The parent client is not directly associated with entities. The parent client exists to identify the members of the client composite, and each third party client is associated to an entity.

You can associate any number of child clients with a parent client record. And a given child client can be associated with multiple parent clients.

In this section

To form a Client Composite:

Do one of the following:
- In Portfolio Data Center, in the left navigation pane, click Portfolio Desk > Accounting Portfolio Setup > Third Party Details > Create Third Party Relationship.
- In Accounting Center, in the left navigation pane, click Setup > Portfolio Setup > Third Party Details > Create Third Party Relationship.
You see the Create Third Party Relationship panel.
Complete the options on the panel.
Click Submit.
The system adds the parent-child relationship to the RULESDBO.CLIENT_RELATIONSHIPS table.

After you establish the parent-child relationship, you can:

Submit reports at the parent client level, to create a client composite level report aggregating the values for all of the underlying clients.
Refresh ISTAR at the parent client level, to refresh all of the underlying clients.
