Edit Entity Workspace

To open the Edit Entity workspace, which enables you to view the details about an entity, perform one of the following steps:

Double-click the entity name in the Summary workspace.
Otherwise, select an entity and click Edit in Manage group of Home tab.

You can see the Edit Entity workspace with the Details tab enabled. The title bar displays the entity name along with checked out data & time. You can also see the the exception status available for the entity.

The exception status specifies the severity of exceptions for the entity. The display options include:

Orange triangle (Warning): Indicates you that there is at least one error of severity level warning
Red square (Critical Error): Indicates you that there is at least one error prevents the field from being released.

The Exception title bar displays the count of pending authorization, if any and also indicates the release status of the entity. The Exception pane displays the outstanding exceptions and pending authorization in-detail for the checked-out entity in grid format. You can click on an exception record in the Exceptions pane to go to the corresponding field in the Entity Details pane.

The Entity Details workspace contains links to all tab types included in the selected entity policy. By default, all entities contain a Details tab. Packaged content for most policies will also have tabs for Benchmark, Peer Group Association, and Disclosures based on the mapped policy.

Certain polices include additional core tabs depending on the entity type for that policy.

Policy Type	Specific core tab for that policy
List	List tab for defining the list of portfolios (static or dynamic)
Sub-Portfolio	Sub-Portfolio for defining the list of portfolios with entity build details
Composite	Composite tab for defining the list of portfolios with entity build details
Aggregate	GIPS Composite tab for defining the composite for performance
Custom Index	Blended Weighted Index for defining the custom blend of multiple indices for performance

The Entity Details pane displays the field values for the checked-out entity. The fields are displayed based on the field groups configured within the policy that governs the entity. By default, you can see two effective date columns. The first is the most recent history record for the checked out entity. The second is the "second most recent‟ history record. By default, only the most recent record is enabled for editing. The second most recent record is shown as a reference to you, so you can easily identify any recent changes to the entity. By default, it is displayed as inactive (grayed out) because it is not editable. However, editing older history is allowed once history has been enabled.

The Entity Details pane contains the following fields:

Field	Description

Field	Description
Field Group Name	Displays the name of the field group as defined for the policy that governs the entity.
Field Name	Displays the name of the field. You can see various icons to the left of the field name defining the field status (if applicable). A blue arrow indicates the field is edited with an override. A red square indicates the field has a critical exception. An orange triangle indicates the field has warning exception. A red asterisk indicates the field is a mandatory field. The circle with a number inside indicates the current release level for the field.
Current Day Value	By default, displays the value as of the most recent effective date.
Prior Day Value	By default, displays the value as of the second most recent effective date.
