Data Feed: CompositeAccountMaster

Category: MasterFeed

Summary:

    The CompositeAccountMaster feed is used to create and refresh basic information for CompositeAccount instances. A composite account is an Account whose holdings are created as a weighted combination of the holdings in the set of Portfolio, IndexAccount, IndexAccount, and/or other CompositeAccount instances that make up a composite over time. The CompositeAccount class is described in detail in the Portfolio Management Application Classes document. A number of related feeds are available to specify CompositeAccount membership weights and to update other account-based information.

Special Processing Rules:

  • The entityId is the unique id that permanently identifies the CompositeAccount. When a new CompositeAccount is created, this field is used to update the code property of the new instance. This id is also added to the Named CompositeAccount naming dictionary. It is added to the Named Account dictionary if the id does not conflict with the id of an instance from a different subclass of Account. If a Portfolio instance is later created with the same id as an existing CompositeAccount, the reference in the Named Account dictionary will return the Portfolio instance.

  • To distinguish CompositeAccount instances from instances of other Account subclasses that may be identified with the same id, a unique identifier is created by prepending the string C_ to the entityId. This id is used to update the uniqueId property of new CompositeAccount instances and is added to the Account naming dictionary as well.

  • The currencyId is used to identify the currency in which monetary values for the composite account are displayed by default. This includes the totalMarketValue and the totalMarketValueCash values for the CompositeAccount as well as the totalMarketValue for its individual holdings. The default value is US Dollars.
