Coding Assets as Non-Portfolio Assets

For 1042-S reporting purposes, interest income is considered portfolio income by default. To treat interest income as non-portfolio income, the asset associated with the income must be coded as a non-portfolio asset. Before an asset can be coded as a non-portfolio asset, create a custom register to code assets as non-portfolio assets.

Creating a Custom Register to Code Assets as Non-Portfolio Assets

To create a custom register to code assets as non-portfolio assets:
  1. From the Register Listing page, move to the
    Comprehensive Asset List
    base register.
  2. Select Modify Register Properties for the register.
  3. Open the
    Information
    collapsible section.

    Register Name

    Information
    collapsible section.
  5. Select the register scope from the
    Scope
    drop-down list.
  6. Select
    Save As
    . The Register Properties page for your custom register displays.

    Detail Columns
    collapsible section, add the
    Non-portfolio interest income
    column. This column is in the
    Asset Master Information
    category. To add the column, select the check box to the left of the
    Category
    column then select
    Add
    above the grid.
  8. The column is moved to the last row in the second grid under the
    Detail Columns
    collapsible section.

    Detail Columns
    collapsible section, you can move the
    Non-portfolio interest income
    column so that it is not the last column in the register. To move the column, select and hold the column heading, then drag and drop it where you want to move it to. The following graphic shows the column as it is moved from the last column to its new location as the first column:
