In the Custom Granularity Reload panel, you can update existing ledger account records to reflect ongoing changes to ledger granularity rules and securities associated with ledger granularity rules.

You may need to reclassify ledger granularity accounts after you make the following types of changes:

  • Entity Basis Rules. You change the ledger granularity rule assigned to an entity/accounting basis.
  • Custom Granularity Rules. You change ledger granularity rule details, such as securities added to or removed from a security grouping or such as changes to criteria used in PST rules.
  • SMF Attribute Data. You change security reference information, whereby one of the security attributes used in a PST rule is modified on a security. For example, say you change the security type value or issue country value for a security and are using ledger granularity rules based on security type or issue country. You must reprocess the ledger entries for the affected financial assets.

Eagle recommends that you run or schedule the reload process as an update event on a daily basis. This enables the system to reflect the correct account based on the current ledger granularity rules and SMF data. 

To perform a custom granularity reload:

  1. From any Eagle window, click the Eagle Navigator button to access the Eagle Navigator.
  2. Enter Custom Granularity Reload in the Start Search text box.
  3. Click the Custom Granularity Reload (Accounting Center) link to access the panel.
    You see the Custom Granularity Reload panel.
  4. In the Select Query Option field, select One Entity to update a single entity or select All Entities to update all entities.
    Additional options appear depending on the value you select.
  5. If you selected One Entity, enter the name or identifier of the entity you want to update in the Entity Name and Entity ID fields.
  6. If you selected All Entities, you can restrict the reload to a specified Process Center and/or partition by entering a value in the Process Center field and the Partition field.
  7. Click Submit.
    During processing, the system creates entries in the CUSTOM_GRAN_UPDATE_LOG table. See the Convert Data for Ledger Granularity section for information about this log table.
  8. Close the Custom Granularity Reload bottom tab to return to the Accounting Center.
