This transaction type in Infront Portfolio Manager is used to record your securities income. The program automatically recognizes which income is to be recorded based on the security type. The following income, for example, falls under income from securities:
Dividends
Interest
Fund distributions
Fund restaurations
Profit participation certificate income
When entering the securities income, remember that the data entered will be available to you for subsequent evaluations. It is of course sufficient to enter the dividends or distributions here. The Infront Portfolio Manager automatically makes the necessary changes to the securities accounts and accounts.
Before you start entering your own dividends, interest and other income, you should first look at some examples and experiment a little. A depot with sample data for testing is already included in the scope of delivery of the Infront Portfolio Manager.
To enter a dividend, for example, proceed as follows:
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 SECURITIES INCOME in the Depot transaction types . Use the keyboard to enter securities income when the "Enter transactions" worksheet is open as follows: Press the key combination <CTRL>+<1> for the securities account transaction types. Then press the button<I>. The "Securities income" dialog box appears.
Select the holder, custody account and account, if applicable.
Enter the desired security in the "Selection" field. You can also enter just one part of a word and then press the <RETURN> key. Alternatively, you can select the "Search" icon or use the "Select security from portfolio" icon to quickly insert the security from your portfolio that pays the dividend. By selecting the security, its security type and thus also the type of income (dividend, fund distribution, etc.) is recognized.
Complete or change the information in the fields if necessary. The details of these fields can be found in the following table.
Select the "Next" button to go to the second page of the dialog box.
Make sure that all entries match the details on your bank statement.
Depending on what is stated on your bank statement, you can first enter the amount "Gross per item" or "Gross total" here. The other position is then calculated by the Infront Portfolio Manager.
The calculations in Infront Portfolio Manager assume that you do not have an exemption order. For postings with an exemption order, you must manually overwrite the automatically shown taxes with the amount 0.
