Changing a Security's Type




Occasionally, users mistakenly set up investments using an incorrect

security type. This utility enables a user to change a security from one

type to another (e.g., from stock to bond). Note the following before

using this feature:





-

The utility does not work for variable annuities, comparative

indices and blended indices.



-

All investment accounts, positions and transactions in the system

are updated accordingly.



-

Some data from the original security's [Detail

content link](/help/pro/smartinvestments/-/security/detail/content/link) may be deleted during the process. This occurs if

the new security type does not contain the same fields as the original

security type. For example, if a user changes a bond to a stock, fields

such as Coupon, Yield, Maturity Value, Maturity Date and Yield to

Maturity are not available on the stock; therefore, data from these

fields is deleted.






To change a security's type:





-

From the [Investment

Security List](/help/pro/smartinvestments/-/searching/for/investment/securities), tag the security to be modified, or open the security

record.



-

Select Menu

> Advanced Options >

Change Security Type.



-

When the confirmation message displays, click the

Yes button. The Change Security

Type dialog box opens.







-

Review the information presented and select the new

security type from the To drop-down list.



-

Click the OK

button.






Viewing a Security's Investment Statistics




Investment statistics display the total number of accounts, total values,

total shares, total costs and other data associated with a security.




To view a security's investment statistics:





-

Tag a security in the [Investment

Security List](/help/pro/smartinvestments/-/searching/for/investment/securities) or open a security record.



-

Select Menu

> Investment Statistics.






Relinking a Variable Annuity Subaccount




This utility enables the user to move a subaccount from one variable

annuity security to another. Typically this is used when:





-

The user creates a subaccount under the wrong variable annuity

security.



-

A variable annuity company reclassifies its variable annuity

products.







Note: When this utility is used, all

investment accounts, positions, transactions and liabilities linked

to the subaccount must be validated.






-

Tag a variable annuity security in the [Investment

Security List](/help/pro/smartinvestments/-/searching/for/investment/securities).



-

Select Menu

> Advanced Options >

Relink Subaccounts.



-

When the confirmation message displays, click the

Yes button to open the Relink

Subaccounts dialog box.



-

Tag the subaccounts to be relinked.



-

Select the appropriate variable annuity from the To

drop-down list.



-

Click the OK

button.






Mass Modifying Investment Securities




The information in certain investment security fields (e.g., Asset Class,

Fund Objective, Fund Family and Sector) can be modified for multiple records

at once. See Mass Modify.




The Fixed Price field is a special case; to mass modify it, tag multiple

securities in a list, and then select Menu

> Advanced Options > Update

Fixed Price.




Viewing a Security's Identifier History




This feature enables the user to keep track of changes in a security's

CUSIP number and/or symbol.




To view the identifier history:





-

Tag a security in the [Investment

Security List](/help/pro/smartinvestments/-/searching/for/investment/securities) or open a security's [Detail

content link](/help/pro/smartinvestments/-/security/detail/content/link).



-

Select Menu

> Advanced Options >

Identifier History to open

the Identifier History List dialog box.






The Menu button in the dialog box contains options for adding or deleting

history entries from the list.
