Date: Enter the date that the shares are being transferred into or out of the portfolio. This is the date that the system will use when calculating entitlements to dividends etc.
Details: Click the downward facing arrow and you will be presented with a drop down list of commonly used transaction descriptions. If the transaction description you require is present in the drop down list then simply click to select. Otherwise you can type in your own free format description up to a maximum of sixteen characters. If transferring shares out of the portfolio then holdings and costs should be entered as negatives.
Auto Transfer: The Auto Transfer button assists in transferring holdings between portfolios. When you have entered a transaction on the transferee (with negative holding and cost), click the button and the system will provide a list of all portfolios. Select the portfolio you want the holding transferred to.
Note: You will only be able to select cases that already have a portfolio period created for the same Fiscal Year. Once you have clicked on the required portfolio the system will create the transaction automatically within the destination portfolio.
Holding: Enter the total number of shares. Up to four places of decimal are allowed to cater for those Securities, such as Unit Trusts, where dealing takes place in fractions of shares. For Gilts, Bonds etc., the relevant currency sign will be determined automatically by the system.
