As wash sales are generated, the amount of disallowed loss transferred to an open lot is tracked and recorded as the current cost fields are updated. For example, suppose a lot holding has a current cost of $10000.00 with $500.00 contributed by a wash sale adjustment and that half of the holding is closed. The lot cost is reduced by $5000.00 and the wash disallowance is reduced by $250.00. The disallowed loss reduction is reported and the remaining disallowed loss remains available on the open holdings.

As the lot decrements, due to subsequent sale or close transactions, the amount of remaining disallowed loss is proportionately reduced.

About Trade Processing for Identified Lots and Wash Sale Processing

Identified lot (IDLOT) trade processing sends a set of IDLOT trades from the trade panel as a bulked set. This ensures that the trades are submitted to the same engine and in order. The STAR engine takes these IDLOT trades and processes them individually. However, they continue to have separate commit scopes. Wash sale processing is not invoked until the last IDLOT close is processed. When the last IDLOT close is processed, all closes that share the same link event ID (tag 28) are taken into consideration for wash sales.

View Wash Sale Information in Position Viewer

You can view wash sales information using the Position Viewer tool in the Wash Sale Adjustments workspace if you convert wash sale adjustment records to the ESTAR database, as shown in the following figure. The Wash Sale Adjustments workspace allows you to view open and close lot adjustments, as well as cancelled open and close lot adjustments. Otherwise, if you store wash sales trade information in the Cost object, you can view wash sales information under the Cost tab for open and close adjustments.

Update Disallowance Values for an Open Lot

You can use the Non Financial Trade Data Modification panel in the Book Trade tool to manually update existing open lots with disallowance values for wash sales. You can update disallowance values for tax/audit reporting purposes when you have open lots that received cost adjustments but do not properly reflect the disallowance. You may need to update the disallowance for an open lot manually as part of an Eagle conversion or upgrade. Disallowance fields for wash sales are also available in the Conversion and the Receive trade panels.


To update an open lot with a disallowance value:

  1. From any Eagle window, click the Eagle Navigator button to access the Eagle Navigator.
  2. Enter Book Trade in the Start Search text box.
  3. Click the Book Trade (Accounting Center) link to access the Book Trade tool.
    You see the Book Trade workspace.
  4. Complete the options in the Search Details pane and click Search.
    You see the search results based on the criteria you selected.
  5. Select the row with the security you want to update.
  6. Right-click and select Other, and then click Non Financial Trade Data Modification.
    You see the Non Financial Trade Data Modification panel.
  7. In the Select Lot to be Modified field, select the open lot you want to modify.
    The lot you select must contain wash sale eligible open quantity and no disallowance. Lots that are closed or already contain disallowances are ineligible for this type of manual update. After you select an open lot, you can modify two fields In the Update Wash Sale Disallowance Fields section of the panel.
  8. Click the Current Washsale Disallowance Local field, and update the current disallowed loss of a wash sale transaction, local currency.
