About Trade Reconciliation

The trade reconciliation process within Eagle Accounting is managed by the Trade Recon console and supporting message streams. You can match trades on the Eagle data warehouse from different data sources. Or, you can use the Trade Recon console to exchange confirm and affirm information with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) using an industry standard reconciliation approach. You choose the approach you wish to use when you configure the Eagle environment.

To access the Trade Recon console:

  1. From the Accounting Center window, select Reconciliation in the left navigation.
  2. Click Trade Recon.
  3. Click Administrative.
  4. Double click Trade Recon Console.
    You see the Trade Recon console.
