Add Master Fund Entities

Master fund entities are designed to track transactions and trades for mutual funds that involve capital stock and NAV processing. In the Master Fund Setup panel, you can manually add a master fund entity. When you add a master fund entity, the system creates an entity record, a record for the entity/primary accounting basis, and accounting periods for the entity/primary accounting basis.

If you want to add an additional accounting basis to a master fund entity, use the Add a Basis to a Portfolio panel. See the Manage Accounting Bases section. You can also change master fund entity information. See the Change Master Fund Entities/Sectors section.

To manually add a master fund entity:

1. From any Eagle window, click the Eagle Navigator button to access the Eagle Navigator.
2. Enter Master Fund Setup in the Start Search text box.
3. Click the Master Fund Setup link to access the panel.
   You see the Master Fund Setup panel.
