Transaction Type Values View

Transaction Type Values are the core Values in the system that all Transactions can track. 

Transaction Type Value Properties

Transaction Type Values have the following properties:

NameDescription
[Required]
Name
The unique user friendly name of this value that can be recorded by Transactions
[Required]
[Key]
Code

The unique short code for this Value. This will be appended to the column names for the Transaction when reporting, importing/exporting, etc. For instance a value with the code ROC will provide 3 Transaction fields:

  • Local_ROC
  • Func_ROC
  • Reporting_ROC
Entry

This indicates to the system how this value should be entered by the user:

  • Local
    This is the typical one for portfolio Transactions. Indicating the user enters an amount in local currency and the system calculates functional and reporting from fx rates.
  • Functional
    Indicates the user enters an amount in functional currency and the system calculates local and reporting from fx rates.
  • Reporting
    Indicates the user enters an amount in reporting currency and the system calculates functional and reporting from fx rates.
  • LocalFunctional
    Indicates the user enters an amount in local and functional currency and the system calculates reporting from fx rates.
  • LocalReporting
    Indicates the user enters an amount in local and reporting currency and the system calculates functional from fx rates.
  • FunctionalReporting
    Indicates the user enters an amount in functional and reporting currency and the system calculates local from fx rates.
  • LocalFunctionalReporting
    Indicates the user enters an amount in local, functional and reporting currency and nothing is calculated.

For instance when using a value like Unrealized FX the entry would be LocalFunctionalReporting to indicate the fx amounts in functional and reporting can be entered, and local should be left as 0 not calculated from the exchange rates.

DescriptionA user friendly description for this value

Once Transaction Values are saved the system also updates all the system queries for reporting on them [see here for more information] and thus can take a second or two to save.
