PropertyDescription
KeyThis is the actual identifier of the transaction type which is used in the TransactionMappings. The transaction types should be named according to the following naming convention:

[BFSInstanceName/Default/SpecificModule]_[Trade/Transfer/Payment]_[Transaction dimension (Trade/Settle]_[Description]

If the transaction type belongs to the general framework the first part of the transaction will be named "Default". If the transaction type is customized for the BFS-instance the first part could be named "Custom".

BFS has a number of default transaction types which are named according to the following:

Default_Trade_Buy
Default_Transfer_Settle_Cash
Default_Transfer_Trade_Cash
etc... 
Status

  • Closed
  • Open
  • Open (Admin) only open to admin users
  • Open (Partner) only open to advisor users and admin users
  • Pending viewable by admin users in the transaction type lists but not available for use

Manual ticketDefines if the transaction type should be available in manual order tickets or only available as automated transactions.
Reporting typeThe selection determines in which section the transaction will appear in Activity statements

Return calculation typeThere are three main divisors that are used to put the transaction types into various baskets and this is called Return Calculation Type. The return calculation type can be Trade, Transfer or Payment and determines how the transaction type will be used when calculating the return of an account. Trade represents a trade of an asset, Transfer represents a transfer of an asset to or from an account and Payment represents a cost that has been applied or an income that has been received by the account. If return calculation type is empty the default value will be Transfer
