Article summary

I was able to change the description for an asset strategy code, however, I do not see a way to change the actual code value. Is there a way to do that?

Steps To Duplicate:
1. Go to File Maintenance\Funds\Fund Code Maintenance\Asset Strategy
2. Click on Edit Asset Strategy
3. Note that the Asset Code field is greyed out and cannot be edited, however, the Asset Description can be edited.
Answer:
The Asset Strategy Code itself cannot be changed, you can however create a new code and assign that code to the funds that are in a pool that are desired to be changed. To do that complete the following steps:

1. You can create a new code by toing to File Maintenance\Funds\Fund Code Maintenance\Asset Strategy, click on the New button to create a new code. Click on Add to add the code and then fill in the Pool ID and the Target Percent, then click the Save button, and the close the window.

2. Use the Mass Fund Field Assignment located in File Maintenance\Funds and assign the desired funds the appropriate code. You can also use the Global change program: File to Change would be Fund. Field to change is Asset-Code-Asset Strategy then enter in old and new value. There is no need to select limiting fields.

NOTE: Before running the tools from step #2 in Production, it is advised to run these in a TEST environment first.
