Example - Contract Cash
Eagle's Accounting solution maintains cash balances from both a traded and settlement basis. Once settlement date has been reached and contract cash processed, Position Viewer allows you to view the cash activity as both traded and settled.
For a coupon that has been generated, before settlement date, Position Viewer displays the coupon as traded. In the following figure, you see the value of TRADED in the Status column.

After contract cash is processed for the unsettled coupon, Position Viewer is updated, as shown in the following figure.
