The STAR to PACE Delta mode captures backdated activity and position changes and updates the accounting data in Eagle PACE. Your organization's data requirements determine when and how often you run the Delta process. For example, if you require intraday reporting or performance, you can set up the S2P Delta mode to run at user defined intervals. If you do not require intraday reporting or performance measurement, you can set the S2P Delta mode to run once at the end of the day, prior to the end of day STAR to PACE batch run as scheduled.
To transfer accounting data using the S2P Delta mode:
- In Accounting Center, in the left navigation pane, click Processing and Exceptions > Global Processes.
You see the Global Process workspace.
- In the left navigation, click STAR to PACE Direct Processing > Transfer Data - Delta.
You see the Transfer Data - Delta panel.
- Complete the options on the Transfer Data - Delta panel.
- Click Submit.
You see the Status window with the status of your request.
- Click Print to print the status information. Or, click OK to close the Status window.
You see the Global Processing Results in the bottom pane. The Summary tab shows the event types associated with your request, along with a batch identifier. The Detail tab shows the processing status for each event.
Transfer Data – Delta Panel Options
The following table lists the fields and field descriptions for the Transfer Data – Delta panel.
Option |
Description |
---|---|
Entity Parameters |
|
Process Center |
Segregates entities into "n" amount of Process Center groups. Doing so allows you to allocate the STAR to PACE workload across multiple STAR engine instances. The STAR to PACE Direct functionality generates the individual request messages for each entity/accounting basis combination at a much faster rate using Process Centers. The global processes incorporate the ability to run by the entity Process Center election. This allows you to schedule STAR to PACE Direct runs by custom defined groups. |
Conversion Status |
Specifies the conversion status. Global processes incorporate the ability to run by the entity Conversion Status election. This allows you to include/exclude STAR to PACE Direct runs by the status of the entity (if, for example, entities in a specific Conversion Status are not ready for STAR to PACE Direct). |
Partition Number |
Specifies the database partition for the position. This value is automatically established by a lookup based on the specific entity. |
Run Options |
|
Delta Date Type |
Specifies the delta date type. Options include:
|
Date Range - End Date |
Specifies the current date for the delta process. The system automatically populates this value. The default is today's date. The system generates result data for the date range between this date and the date on the transaction. Different Process Centers have different current dates. |
Data Filter |
Specifies the type of data. Options include:
|
Position Valuation Election |
Specifies the price used by S2P. Options include:
|
Control Center Switch |
Determines whether to integrate STAR to PACE Direct with the Control Center functionality. Options include:
|
Include Zero Positions (Days) |
Determines whether Eagle Accounting includes zero positions in the result set for a specified number of days past the position's last settlement date. This field is automatically populated with a value of "0" and you must only change the option after discussions with your relationship Manager about your processing workflow. |
Event Type |
Displays the event value GEN_STARPACE_DELTA. |
FX Date Switch |
Indicates whether the process extracts the FX rate for the given accounting date or the most recent available FX rate. Options include:
|
Price Date Switch |
Indicates whether the process extracts the price for the given accounting date or the most recent available price. Options include:
|
SPD Cash Balances Switch |
Indicates whether STAR to PACE Direct rolls up cash balances by currency and cash account in the Eagle data warehouse. In the STAR database, the system stores cash balances at the asset and custodian level. Options include:
|
Income Based Cash Switch |
Indicates whether to generate an income based cash record. Options include:
|
S2P Position Income Receivable Switch |
Indicates whether to store income receivable data on the individual data warehouse position records. Options include:
|
Calculate Contractual Settlement |
Indicates whether to calculate contractual settlement. STAR to PACE Direct stores contractual settlement values in Eagle PACE. These fields require additional processing, which affects the performance of the STAR to PACE Direct Batch and Delta process. Options include:
|
System Currency |
Displays the system currency for calculating enterprise wide performance returns, if specified. See Chapter 5: Working With Performance Measurement, for details about setting up a system currency to calculate enterprise wide performance returns. |
Qualify Entities to process (Entity, Process Center, Conversion Status)
You can qualify the entities that process during STAR to PACE Batch or Delta modes by identifying the entity and by specifying additional fields from the Entities Parameter section of the panels.
The following are examples of data transfers that occur during S2P when you specify different combinations of entity-related parameters. The parameters on the Delta and Batch panels include:
- Entity ID/Entity Name
- Process Center
- Conversion Status
Note:
When you specify an Entity ID and/or Entity Name, STAR to PACE processing treats this as a unique election, called Entity. Entering the value for one field on the panel automatically populates the other field on the panel, because they represent the same entity and may not contradict.
In this example, you assume that you can specify value for these situations: - All three criteria, the system sends to Eagle PACE only those entities that match all three criteria.
- Two of the three criteria, the system sends to Eagle PACE only those entities that match the two criteria.
- One of the three criteria, the system sends to Eagle PACE only those entities that match the single criterion.
The following is a list of entities, showing their entity id, process center, and conversion status.
Entity |
Process Center |
Conversion Status |
---|---|---|
ABC |
BOS |
L |
XYZ |
LA |
L |
123 |
LA |
null |
The following table shows hypothetical outcomes, for several combinations of parameters.
Criteria |
Data Transfer Outcome |
---|---|
Process Center of BOS |
Only data for entity ABC is copied to Eagle PACE |
Conversion Status of L |
Data for Entities ABC and XYZ is copied to Eagle PACE |
Process Center of LA and a Conversion Status of L |
Only data for entity XYZ is copied to Eagle PACE |
Process Center of LA and an Entity of 123 |
Only data for entity 123 is copied to Eagle PACE |
