Manage Interportfolio Transfers

An interportfolio transfer (IPT) is the transfer of positions and/or lots from one entity to another entity or entities. Eagle's Accounting solution provides several ways for you to transfer entity information:

• Manual Interportfolio Transfers
• Rule Based Interportfolio Transfers

Manual Interportfolio Transfers

You can manually transfer a position and/or lots from a single security from one entity to another entity using the Interportfolio Transfer panel. After you submit the Interportfolio Transfer panel, the system transfers the position and/or lots. See the Perform an Interportfolio Transfer for a Position page for more information.

Rule Based Interportfolio Transfers

You can transfer one security from one entity to one or more entities. Or you can transfer one or more securities from one entity to another entity. You can perform a rule based interportfolio transfer by first defining a single step or a multi step interportfolio transfer rule with the transfer criteria and then triggering that transfer rule to execute the transfer. If you define an interportfolio transfer rule for a multi basis entity and you want to use different price/transfer methods for the accounting bases, you can use the basis price method panels to identify the price/transfer method to use for each accounting basis during the interportfolio transfer.
