In the Position Viewer tool, you can view position and cash information that is segregated by custodian in the custody accounting basis for entities that use cash segregation.

You can use the Position Viewer to break out quantity by custodian location in the Cost object and to break out cash by the custodian's cash account in the Cash object. If a position in an entity that uses cash segregation has holdings in multiple custody locations, the system can create multiple Cost objects, multiple Cash objects, and multiple Income objects for a single position in the custody basis. This allows the system to segregate the quantity and cash accounts by custodian. 

You can also view cash balances for a position's Cash object. Cash balances are segregated by custodian in the custody basis, and are not segregated by custodian in other bases.

WRITERS NOTE: if this is in 2017 scope, add an XREF from main PV topic here.

BRANDON: when I try to select an entity and pick a CUST accoutnign basis, I get an error. It only works if I pick the custodian bank before I pick the accounting basis. also, why was this field renamed from Accounting Basis to Account Basis. This is inconsistent with rest of panels in product. are we adding back View Custody Location?

View Segregated Asset Quantities in the Cost Object

WRITERS NOTE: need to update all Position Viewer screenshots for new UI. Provided by Sadiq in 2015 R4. Can't locate data.

If you use cash segregation, the Cost object for the custody basis allows you to view the asset quantity (units/shares) associated with a specified custody location for a position that has multiple custodians.

To view cost accounting information for a specific position with cash segregation:

  1. From the Position Viewer tool, view positions for one portfolio by custody location.
  2. Select the position in the custody accounting basis that you want to view.
    If the position in an entity that uses cash segregation has holdings associated with multiple custody locations in the custody basis, and you did not restrict your query to a single custody location, you see multiple Cost objects for that position.
  3. In the Reports list, select Cost.
    You see the tabs that apply to the Cost object. populated with data, if there is related activity available. Tabs containing data are highlighted. You can view the asset quantity (units/shares) associated with the specified custody location for a position.
  4. Click a row to view the cost accounting activity in the Cost object.
    The Source System Code column (tag 98) value for a position's custody basis identifies the entity bank relationship alias for the custodian associated with the segregated custodian quantity. This value matches the value of the transaction's Bank Alias (tag 16). (Otherwise, the Source System Code for a non custody basis displays a value of F.)

The following figure shows details from the Cost object for the custody basis of a position in an entity that uses cash segregation. In the Position Viewer search criteria, you set the View by Custody Location field to a value of No. As a result, the search results include cost information for more than one custodian location, and you see two Cost objects for the issue in the grid rather than a single Cost object.

If you click the row for the second Cost object, in the Summary tab you see the Source System Code column (tag 98). You can double-click the source system row to display the value of 361, in this example, for that Cost object in position's custody basis. This numeric value identifies the entity bank relationship alias for the custodian associated with the segregated custodian quantity. This value matches the value of the transaction's Bank Alias (tag 16).

If you click the Open Lots tab to view the transaction details and scroll to the right, you can see the custodian information for the transaction. You can see the Bank Alias value of 361, which identifies the instance of the entity bank relationship that applies to the transaction. The entity bank relationship links the custody location (custody bank/custody bank account number grouping) to the entity or entity group.

View Segregated Cash Balances in the Cash Object

You can view traded and settled cash balances associated with a Cash object. For entities that do not use cash segregation, you can view the overall cash balances. For entities that use cash segregation, you can view the Cash object in the entity's custody basis to view the cash and cash account associated with a specified custody location for a position that has multiple custodians.

The results for the Query Positions window display local currency cash balances. To view non local currency balances, you can select the Position Viewer's Cash Position - Different Settle Currency option.

To view cash activity for a specific position with cash segregation:

  1. From the Position Viewer tool, view positions for one portfolio by custody location.
  2. Select the position in the custody accounting basis that you want to view.
    If the position in an entity that uses cash segregation has cash associated with multiple custody locations in the custody basis, and you did not restrict your query to a single custody location, you see multiple Cash objects for that position.
  3. In the Reports list, select Cash.
    You see the tabs that apply to the Cash object populated with data. The following tabs associated with the Cash object provide information related to cash segregation:
    –  Traded Cash Balances. Displays the traded cash balance records for the position.
    –  Settled Cash Balance. Displays the settled cash balance records for the position.
  4. Click a row to view the cash activity in the Cash object.
    In the Traded Cash Balance tab or the Settled Cash Balance tab for the position's custody basis, the cash balance's Source System Code column (tag 98) value identifies the entity bank relationship instance for the custodian associated with the segregated custodian cash amount in the custody basis. This value matches the value of the transaction's Bank Alias (tag 16). (Otherwise, the Source System Code for a non custody basis displays a value of F.) The Cash Account Alias column (tag 11698) identifies the cash account relationship instance for the cash balance record.

In the following Cash object example, you select the custody basis of a position in an entity that uses cash segregation. In the Position Viewer query you set the View by Custody Location field to a value of No. As a result, the query results include cost information for more than one custodian location, and you see two Cash objects for the issue in the upper pane rather than a single Cash object.

After you click the Cash Position - Asset Currency tab, you can click the Traded Cash Balance tab or the Settled Cash Balance tab to view the cash balances for the selected custody location. The cash balance's Source System Code column (tag 98) value identifies the entity bank relationship instance for the custodian associated with the segregated custodian cash amount in the custody basis. This value matches the value of the transaction's Bank Alias (tag 16). The Cash Account Alias column (tag 11698) identifies the cash account relationship instance for the cash balance record.

If you examine the cash for a trade, corporate action, or direct cash event, you can see the information for the custodian cash account that the system assigned during processing during rules defined in entity bank relationships and cash account relationships. You can view the custodian details in the Receipts, Disbursements, Traded, and Settled tabs, for example.
