Balances Tab

Field	Description
Cycle	A reference number that identifies the reconciliation and allocation Cycle for the Pool.
Ending Book Value	If you are tracking the book value of investments, this field displays the ending book value of the Pool for the selected Cycle. NOTE: Most organizations do not track Book values in FACTS. Refer to Tracking the Book Value of Investments for more information.
Ending Market Value	If you are tracking the market value of investments, this field displays the ending market value of the Pool for the selected Cycle. NOTE: This is the only balance that most organizations track in FACTS.
Ending Income Balance	If you are tracking income in FACTS, this field displays the ending income balance for the selected Cycle. NOTE: Most organizations do not track Income balances in FACTS. NOTE: There is an important functional distinction between the FACTS Income Balance and the Principal (Market) Balance. The Income Balance has no effect on the units that are held by each Fund or the allocation. This does not mean that changes (for example, earnings and fees) on income are not allocated, but that the allocations are based on the units (Market Value).
End Date	The date when the selected Cycle ended.
Reconciled	Indicates whether the selected Cycle has been reconciled (yes or no).
Last Reconciled	The date when the last reconciliation took place.
