Add a Schedule for a Security in Issue Viewer

You can use the Add, Change, Delete, and List Schedule panels to maintain schedule information for a security. The system allows you to manually add and change a call, put, sink, custom sink, pre-refund, coupon/reset, and PIK receivable mark to market schedule. It uses this information during the earnings process to calculate a yield for the security. You can also add ex interest schedules to process accruals on the ex-date of a bond.

Accounting Center includes Issue Viewer, Eagle's legacy security master tool that allows you to perform a variety of security master related functions. Reference Data Center (RDC), which replaces Issue Viewer, along with other legacy data management tools, is Eagle's current and more powerful solution for centralizing and managing security reference data. Eagle recommends that you use RDC to set up and manage schedules when you use Eagle Accounting, but continues to provide access to Issue Viewer while existing clients transition to RDC. For more information, see Manage Schedules.

Identifies a pre-refunded security, mandatory put, and entire issue call. Coupon/Reset. Identifies a coupon and swap reset schedule.

Identifies the PIK (payment in kind bond) is paying in shares for a given coupon period. Ex Interest Schedule. Identifies an ex interest processing schedule for use by entities eligible to use ex interest processing to process accruals on the ex-date of a bond. Custom Sink. Identifies a custom sink schedule.
Effective Date	1109	Specifies the effective date of the transaction.
End Date	73	Specifies the end date of the specific schedule type. The field appears if you add a schedule for a coupon/reset schedule or a schedule for a PIK receivable mark to market. For a coupon/reset schedule, the End Date is the reset/payment date, or the contractual day when the payment is due, not including delay days, for the selected total return swap leg. If you change the end date for a schedule entry, you must also change the following entry's effective date.
Price/Rate	1249	Specifies the price/rate. The field appears if you add a schedule for a call, put, refund, coupon/reset.
Schedule Amount	1669	Specifies the amount for the schedule. The field appears if you add a schedule for a sink, PIK receivable mark to market, or custom sink. For a sink schedule, the Schedule Amount values must add up to 1.0, or 100%. For a custom sink schedule, the Schedule Amount values also must add up to 1.0, or 100%. However, if you set the Bypass Sink Check option to Yes for a custom sink schedule, the system does not require the Schedule Amount values or payments for the custom sink schedule to add up to 1.0, or 100%. For a PIK receivable mark to market schedule, a nonzero PIKMTM schedule amount is required to post URGL. When you enter the schedule for a coupon period, you can enter the amount as the coupon rate / frequency (that is, .05 / 2 = .025).
Schedule Subtype	3678	Indicates the type of refund schedule. The field appears if you add a schedule type of Refund. Options include: Entire Issue Call Mandatory Put Pre-Refunded
Announcement Date	1247	Identifies the announcement date for the refund schedule. The field appears if you add a schedule type of Refund. If you define an amortization rule with Recognize Prerefunded (tag 3860) set to Recognize Pre-refunded Date using Announcement Date, Eagle Accounting uses this date as the pre-refunding announcement date when it calculates amortization yield.
Corporate Action Status	54	Indicates the status of the schedule. The field appears if you add a schedule for a sink or custom sink. Options include: Incomplete Pending Released
Bypass Sink Check	17479	Indicates whether the system bypasses the sink check, and ignores the restriction that requires the custom sink schedule entries to have Schedule Amount values for payments that total to a value of 1.0, or 100%. Schedule amounts for sink schedules must always total to a value of 1.0, or 100%. Options include: Yes. The system bypasses the sink check. The system does not require the custom sink schedule entries to total to a value of 1.0, or 100%. Null. Default. The system does not bypass the sink check. The system requires the custom sink schedule entries to total to a value of 1.0, or 100%.
Valuation Date	16409	Specifies the date that the system can select and use the underlying price in the calculation of return for the selected total return swap's equity/return leg. The field appears if you add a coupon/reset schedule for a swap leg with a processing security type (PST) of Swap Leg Total Rate Return on Equity (SWLXEQ).
Fixing Date	16410	Specifies the date that the system can select and use the interest rate, that is, the floating rate, in the calculation of return for the selected total return swap's finance leg. The field appears if you add a coupon/reset schedule for a swap leg with a processing security type (PST) of Swap Leg Interest Accrual (SWLEAC).
Cash Payment Date	16411	Specifies the expected date of the cash payment for the selected total return swap leg. The system calculates the cash payment date by adding any applicable delay days to the payment date, or End Date. The field appears if you add a coupon/reset schedule.
Reset Date	16408	Specifies the date on which the system can update the notional value/price/interest rate based on change in market condition for the selected total return swap leg. If you select a swap leg with a processing security type (PST) of Swap Leg Total Rate Return on Equity (SWLXEQ), the End Date and the Reset Date must have the same date. The field appears if you add a coupon/reset schedule.
Ex Interest Date	3669	Specifies the date that each coupon period begins to trade ex-interest to use for the corresponding effective date in the Ex Interest schedule. If you do not set up an Ex Interest schedule for the security, the system uses the security-level Ex-Interest Days field to identify the ex interest date.

Change Schedules

In the Change Schedule panel, you can edit the schedule for a security. Any time you change information in the Schedule table, Eagle Accounting recalculates the amortization yield the next time you run earnings, using the new values. If a value has changed in the Schedule table for a prior coupon period, you should Rollback and Replay earnings, or run a Retrospective Amortization event. If you change a schedule record that you already processed, then you need to rerun the global panel/query.
