In the Detail tab the user can find the portfolio properties.
General Information
This information is required to identify a portfolio and its operating model.

Certificates
In this section the user can define if for this portfolio a certificate is required prior to the validation of the payment. If this should be the case the box certificate required shall be selected. It is mandatory to provide a start date for this process.
To simplify the identification of the portfolio related to a certificate, it is possible to enter the portfolio reference of the depository. This is available as a search criterion in the certificate module.

Flag ‘is new’
A portfolio is flagged as ‘new’ upon automatic creation (e.g. Vestima feed).
The user can manually take away the flag when the relevant checks have been made.

A Sales representative can be attached to portfolio. To add a sales representative the user must click on the ‘Add’ and define the start date from which on the sales representative shall be linked to the portfolio as well as the name of the representative.

Holding on sub portfolios
In the section ‘General Information’ the user can identify if the portfolio is a sub portfolio:

The line Sub Portfolio is flagged as ‘Yes’. Hence it is a sub-portfolio. The information about the parent portfolio can be found in the first line of the ‘General Information’. The parent portfolio is shown on the below screen. The line ‘Sub Portfolio’ is flagged as ‘No’

If sub portfolios are attached, the operating mode of these needs to be defined:

Set hierarchy holding to zero: All positions on sub-portfolios are set back at the beginning of a new month
Customisation of the hierarchy: The hierarchy can be customised or not. The customisation provides the option to exclude individual portfolios from the general behaviour.
The choice made on the parent portfolio is automatically carried over to the sub-portfolios:
