Set Up Bypass Earnings Replay
Backdated trade processing, specifically with mortgage-backed type positions such as TBAs, can take a significant amount of time to process due to the amount of rollback/replay. The backdated activity can often take several hours to complete, which not only takes a significant amount of system resources to process but can delay other client-related activity as well. TBA allocations, for example, can lead to hundreds of backdated trades that rollback and replay months of earnings and paydowns for every transaction. Instead of doing rollback/replay after every trade, Eagle Accounting allows you to perform that rollback and replay once, after all activity has been posted.
If you set the Bypass Earnings Replay (tag 11793) option for a transaction to a value of A, during transaction processing the system bypasses earnings processing in addition to the following accounting functions:
- OpenWashSaleAdj
- CloseWashSaleAdj
- accrueMaster
- LedgerPosting_Generate_DRCR
- supplementEventWithEarnProperty
- ledgerPeriodForwardBackward
- calcVariationMargin
- CalculateYield
- CalcTradedInterest
- setConvBond
- supplementEventWithYieldProperty
- LedgerPosting_Generate_DRCR_ByRow
- CalcTipsIndexRatio
- GetPaydownGainloss
- SetIncomeRecognitionTag
- Not included in this list is the write cursor to the STAR to PACE Delta trigger log. The system also bypasses this log to increase processing speeds. After you run the REACCRUE event, the system populates the STAR to PACE Delta trigger log and subsequently updates the Eagle data warehouse.
You can set the Bypass Earnings Replay (tag 11793) option to a value of A on transactions to have Eagle Accounting bypass the earnings replay during the rollback/replay process. This tag is appended onto all transaction activity. The rollback still occurs, but no income or trades replay ensues, which significantly improves system performance while posting backdated transaction activity. This setting is used mainly during TBA allocation, because the trade activity involved many backdated trades which rolled back earnings and factors each time during every trade.
During transaction processing, Eagle Accounting uses the LAST_VAULT_DATE column on the ESTAR_COST_POSITION table. It sets this column equal to Trade Date minus one of the earliest trade on a position that was booked with tag 11793 set to A. Eagle Accounting uses this date to determine how far it needs to roll back earnings. The system then replays earnings up through the previous EARN_THROUGH_DATE on the ESTAR_COST_POSITION table. You can view the LAST_VAULT_DATE value in Position Viewer, where it is called PLANSTEP_FUNCTION_BYPASS_DT (tag 12401).
The system only bypasses ledger activity for open transactions. It does this because if a backdated close occurred that rolled back several transactions, the ledger postings associated with those rolled back transactions will remain on the ledger. Therefore, the system does not bypass ledger activity for closes and cancels at this time.
Set Up Bypass Earnings Replay if You Use TBA Consolidation
If you use TBA Consolidation processing with IWS to process TBA allocations, the system automatically sets the Bypass Earnings Replay (tag 11793) option to a value of R on transactions to have Eagle Accounting not only bypass the Earnings replay during the rollback/replay process, but also to bypass the corporate action sweep event that finds corporate actions in a Released status and processes them.
The eagle_wrf_tba_process workflow has the ability to first suppress the Earnings catch-up process, and then (when transactions are successfully processed) to automatically trigger the accrual process through current process center date.
Reaccrue after You Bypass Earnings
In the Reaccrue for Earnings Bypass panel, you can perform rollback and replay for earnings processing for transactions that you previously bypassed. When you bypass rollback and replay earnings and other accounting processing for TBA allocations, Eagle Accounting allows you to perform that rollback and replay a single time, after all activity is posted. After you process transactions using the Reaccrue for Earnings Bypass panel, all activity including, but not limited to, ledger postings, warehouse activity, earnings, wash sales, trades, and corporate actions should be the same as if you did not previously bypass accounting processing for those transactions.
You typically use the Reaccrue for Earnings Bypass panel to catch up earnings when transactions have the Bypass Earnings Replay (tag 11793) option set to a value of A. When you use TBA Consolidation processing and transactions have the Bypass Earnings Replay (tag 11793) option set to a value of R, the IWS workflow automatically runs the accrual process to catch up accruals.
To reaccrue after you bypass Earnings processing:
- From any Eagle window, click the Eagle Navigator button to access the Eagle Navigator..
- Enter Global Process Center in the Start Search text box.
Click the Global Process Center link to access the Global Process Center.
You see the Global Process Center.- Open the Earnings folder in the left navigation pane and select Reaccrue for Earnings Bypass.
You see the Reaccrue for Earnings Bypass panel. - Complete the options on the Reaccrue for Earnings Bypass panel.
- Click Submit.
The Global Processing Results frame appears at the bottom of the panel. The Detail tab shows each entity/security that was accrued with a Status of Processed and Event Type of Earn. Otherwise, if the system finds no accruals to process, the system displays a message indicating it produced no loopbacks.
