In the Capitalization/Cash Entry/Final Close panel, you can process a capitalization for a private equity fund to recognize income and/or expenses. The Capitalization (LPCAP event) transaction lets you book income/expense for the commitment, as well as book gain/loss. It also adjusts the cost of the private equity position. These transactions affect LP Income and LP Expense, but they do not generate cash or affect the funded and unfunded commitments.
The LPCAP event is part of the Capital Based Fund Investment workflow used when you set up a private equity security with a processing security type of Capital Based Fund Investment (EQCBFI).
