Splitting
The "splitting" transaction type is one of the corporate actions at Depot transaction types.
Proceed as follows to enter a splitting:
- Open the "Enter transactions" worksheet as described above in the section Enter transactions and select the desired holder if necessary.
- Open the DEPOT menu in the "Enter transactions" worksheet.
- Select the transaction type SPLITTING at Depot transaction types .
Use the keyboard to enter a split with the "Enter transactions" worksheet open as follows: Press the key combination <CTRL>+<1> for the securities account transaction types. Then press the <X> button.
The "Splitting" dialog box appears, the first page of which largely corresponds to the "Purchase" dialog box. Select the security for which you would like to book the splitting.
In the case of splitting, the number of securities already in the securities account is also displayed (on the second page of the "Splitting" dialog box). You will find the following input fields on the second page of the "Splitting" dialog box:
Element | Description |
|---|---|
Number of old people | The position of the security before splitting is shown here. |
Number of new | Enter the number of new securities added as a result of the splitting here. |
Total | The sum of the two values is calculated or entered in this field. |
The amount payable is zero for splitting, unless you specify expenses or fees.
If you have licensed the "Cost service" module and have an Internet connection to the service, you can also download the associated costs directly from the cost service. If necessary, please also read the section Transactions and cost service.
You can find out how to access the dialog box for entering individual account transactions in the section Enter transactions.
Ensure that the new total is correct ("Total" field) and that the order date is correct. Otherwise, errors will occur in the subsequent evaluations.
