Article summary


Security Type Codes

Security Type codes are used to classify each Security (for example, bond, money market, Treasury bill, common stock). These codes are used in the Security record.

To maintain Security Type codes, select File Maintenance > Donor and Gift Code Maintenance > Security Type.

The process for maintaining these codes is the same as other codes in FIMS. See Maintain FIMS Codes in the Introduction for more information on configuring code tables.

Note: There is one difference between the Security Type code and other standard FIMS codes. In addition to the Code and Description, you can also enter the Asset G/L Account that is associated with the code. This account is automatically entered on the Accounts tab for the Securities Asset Account for the Journal Entry when you enter a new Stock Gift.

Maintain Broker Codes

Broker codes are used to identify the broker who is responsible for stock trades. Each broker must have a Profile record before they can be added to the Broker code table.

To maintain Broker codes, select File Maintenance > Donor and Gift Code Maintenance > Brokers.

The process for maintaining these codes is the same as other codes in FIMS. Refer to Maintain FIMS Codes in the Introduction for more information on configuring code tables.
