Create Contract Cash Rule Details
- Nancy Cohn (Deactivated)
In the Create Contract Cash Rule Details panel, you can add security details and contractual settlement details for a contract cash rule. You can associate one or more rule details with a contract cash rule.
You create contractual settlement details for each processing security type (PST) you want to settle, and can have different settlement elections for different processing security types under the same rule. For example, you may want to settle all income from short-term securities (PST of DBIBST), but may not want to settle all income from mortgage-backed securities (PST of DBFBFB). At a minimum, you create details for each processing security type in your fund. You can also define details specific to a single security.

- In Portfolio Data Center, in the left navigation pane, click Portfolio Desk > Accounting Portfolio Rules > Contract Cash Rules > Create Contract Cash Rule Details.Â

For example, if you set Contractual Cash Settlement Type election to Trade Only, but set the Corporate Actions election to Trade and Income, the contract cash process does not settle any income derived from corporate actions. You can set up a Contract Cash rule that allows for both Income and Trade to contractually settle, and you can exclude currencies from settling contractually. However, within a single rule you cannot allow some to settle just Trade, just Income, or Both. For example, if you create a rule for a particular processing security type (PST) such as Common Stock (EQCSCS), you cannot allow some EQCSCS to settle just Trade, just Income, or Both. The EQCSCS rule applies to all EQCSCS transactions. Options include:
