Managing General Asset Information
Asset information is stored at the PAN level. The
Comprehensive Asset List
register is updated with the asset information when the initial transaction or sale for the CUSIP is loaded. Items (such as the CUSIP, asset name, state of issue or country code) are added to the asset's entry in the asset register if the fields are populated on the transaction or sale.After an asset is added, certain rules determine which asset fields are updated. The following table includes a description of how bridged asset field values are loaded and updated:
Field | Load and Update Details |
|---|---|
Asset ID(CUSIP) | The value is from the initial transaction or sale loaded for the CUSIP. The value cannot be modified once it is added. |
Name | The value is from the initial transaction or sale loaded for the CUSIP. The field is locked if the value is modified in ONESOURCE Trust Tax. If the field is not locked, the value is updated only if the value is populated in the bridge file. |
Asset Type | The value is determined from the tax code of the initial transaction. If there are multiple transactions in the same bridge file, the information from the last transaction loaded is used. The field is locked if the value is modified in ONESOURCE Trust Tax. The asset type is populated from the bridge file if the field is not locked and a subsequent load includes an income transaction for the asset. |
Origin | The value is from the initial transaction or sale loaded for the CUSIP. The field is locked if the value is modified in ONESOURCE Trust Tax. If the field is not locked, the value is updated only if the value is populated in the bridge file. |
Minor Asset | The value is from the initial transaction or sale loaded for the CUSIP. The field is locked if the value is modified in ONESOURCE Trust Tax. If the field is not locked, the value is updated only if the value is populated in the bridge file. |
NQ Asset | The value is from the initial transaction or sale loaded for the CUSIP. The field is locked if the value is modified in ONESOURCE Trust Tax. If the field is not locked, the value is updated only if the value is populated in the bridge file. |
Factored | The value is set to Yes if the bridge file includes transactions coded with tax code 906. |
Issue Date | The value is loaded only if the ONESOURCE Trust Tax value is blank. No changes occur from loads after ONESOURCE Trust Tax is populated. Only manual changes in ONESOURCE Trust Tax update a non-blank value. |
90 Day Holding Period | The value is from the initial transaction or sale loaded for the CUSIP. The field is locked if the value is modified in ONESOURCE Trust Tax. If the field is not locked, the value is updated only if the value is populated in the bridge file. |
TAV Security Type | The value is from the initial transaction or sale loaded for the CUSIP. It is updated if the value is populated in a subsequent bridge file. The TAV Security Type field is used to indicate the proper WHFIT asset classification value from the initial sale or transaction that is loaded for the CUSIP. |
In the
Comprehensive Asset List
register, the asset type for an asset displays in Asset Type
field. If the asset will be factored into multiple income or expense categories then the asset type must be Common Fund
or Mutual Fund
, or Yes
must be selected for the asset's Factored
field. If the asset is a municipal bond, the state of issue is included in the asset's Origin
field. If the asset is a foreign asset, the country of issue is displayed in the Origin
field.Managing Asset Field Locks
You can use the
Tape Lock-Out Signals for Asset Data
register to lock or unlock the following asset fields:- Name
- Asset Type
- Origin
- Minor Asset
When an asset's lock field is set to
On
, the field is locked. The field value is not updated by a data load but can be manually updated in ONESOURCE Trust Tax. When an asset's lock field is blank, the field is unlocked. The field value can be updated by a data load and/or a manual update in ONESOURCE Trust Tax.The following asset fields can be locked or unlocked if they are added to a custom register:
- SEC Listed
- NQ Asset
- 90 Day Holding Period
The lock fields for these asset fields are in the
Asset Tape Lock-out Signals
category on the Register Properties page. The columns are:- Lock Asset is SEC listed
- Lock Nonqualified Asset flag
- Lock 90 Day Holding Period
You can make a global change to lock or unlock an asset field for all or a group of assets in register. To globally lock or unlock an asset field:
- From the Register Listing page, select Run for the register that includes the asset fields to lock or unlock.
- Select the assets you want to lock or unlock an asset field for. To select one or more assets, select the check box in the second column on the left. If you want to lock or unlock an asset field for all of the assets in the register, do not select any check box.

- From theColumndrop-down list, select the column heading for the lock field you want to lock or unlock.
- From theNew Valuedrop-down list, selectOn(to lock) or blank (to unlock).

Managing Suppressed Sales
The
Suppressed Sales
field, which is included in the Comprehensive Asset List
register, is used for sweep assets that report no gain or loss. When the value for an asset's Suppressed Sales
field is set to Yes
, sales of the asset for all of the accounts in the PAN are suppressed and are prevented from being reported on Form 1099-B.If your trust accounting system uses a particular minor asset type to categorize sweep assets, you can update the
Suppressed Sales
field for all of the assets at one time by creating a custom register to limit the asset list to the minor asset types then globally updating the Suppressed Sales
field.note
Since the
Suppressed Sales
field is not automatically updated for new sweep assets, be sure to regularly review the custom register for new assets that may have been added since your last update.Managing Year End Position Information
Asset information used to comply with WHFIT reporting requirements is displayed for each trust or asset relationship in the
Year End Position Information
register. Each position record bridged from your trust accounting system to ONESOURCE Trust Tax shows the as of date of the position, the number of units and the original face value. Your trust accounting vendor may send this information monthly or annually.In the
Year End Position Information
register, the number of units and the original face value can be locked so that the information is not overridden by subsequent data loads. Selecting On
from the Lock Units
or Lock OFV
field locks the number of units or original face value. Selecting blank unlocks the fields.Managing Assets while Processing Tax Returns
Fund factors and other asset-related tax information is not always readily available, which may make it difficult to determine the returns to process and the returns not to process due to incomplete tax information. One way to manage this process is to set the
Account contains transactions for asset marked "Held for Review"
SmartBridge probe to stop processing tax returns, then place the asset on hold. After you receive the complete tax information for the asset, you can remove the asset hold then process the returns.note
If the
Can force compute accounts with SmartBridge errors
user right was granted to you, you can process a return even though an asset is placed on hold. To process a return even though an asset is placed on hold, select the Bypass SmartBridge probes
check box on Process page or pop-up window.To manage assets while processing tax returns:
- SelectSETUP,Options&OverridesthenPAN LevelorSuperBank Level.
- In theSmartBridge Probescategory, set theAccount contains transactions for asset marked "Held for Review"SmartBridge probe toDisplay message and do not process tax return.
- SelectSave.
- Create a custom asset register. Use the Register Properties page to add theBeginning year to stop processing for assetfield to it.
- Run the custom asset register.
- Select the tax year you are working in from theHold Asset forfield for each asset that has incomplete tax information.
- SelectSave. The asset is now placed on hold.
- After you receive the asset's complete tax information, remove the asset hold by running the custom register, selecting the blank value from theHold Asset forfield then selectingSave. You are now ready to process the accounts that hold the asset.
Creating a Custom Register to Review Asset Information
Since the
Comprehensive Asset List
register includes all of the assets in your PAN, it may not be the ideal register to run for reviewing and correcting asset information. By creating a custom register, you can review and correct asset information on a monthly basis or for only the assets that were added in the current year.To create a custom register for reviewing and correcting asset information:
- From the Register Listing page, select Modify register properties for theComprehensive Asset Listregister.
- Select theInformationcollapsible section on the Register Properties page.
