FAQ 851: DV: Fund company merged CUSIPs

Problem:

Fund company has merged the cusips. How do fix the rejected trades and how do I fix the plan for both funds so future trades do not reject and plan stays in balance?


Solution:

Will need to run Fund Close Out utility, but saving as transactions and not putting trades in to the transition file. Use the specific date of the merger, make sure the new funds are added to the plan and price files populated with prices as of the date of the merger. As for rejected trades, globally edit to the new fund, re-output to transition and trade.
