This interface allows you to import your custodian position data on an ongoing basis. Before importing, you must obtain a daily position file from your custodian in a flat file format (.txt, .seq, etc.) or Excel file format (.xls, xlsx, etc.), and import using the instructions below.
In the File Name box, click the magnifying glass icon to browse to the file you want to import. Select the file and click Open. The path is displayed in the File Name box.
The Custodian Accounting Templates section lists the custodians currently supported by Morningstar Office. Select the custodian that corresponds with your position file.
Click the Import button to start extracting the data into the import blotters where you can review prior to posting to the client accounts. Note: If the Note Title was not imported from the spreadsheet, you must enter this manually in order to post the note.
Click Cancel to exit the screen without making changes
Note: If you are using a custodian not included on the list, please contact Product Support so we may create a new template for you. Once created, the template will be available for use and will not require a Morningstar Office software update.
