The Reconciliations > Overview dashboard in the LUSID web app enables you to track, review, and approve your reconciliation results.

Each reconciliation run can include results for up to three types of reconciliation:

  • Holdings

  • Transactions

  • Valuation

LUSID bases the results on the configuration specified in the group reconciliation definition.

For each reconciliation type, you can select the View icon to inspect the results, including:

Comments

You can leave comments when you review matches, partial matches and breaks, and view the comment history.

You can designate two or more break rows as a manual match. Manual matches generate a Match key to help you track matching data. What is a break in LUSID?

To manually match a break:

  1. In the Breaks tab, select the rows you wish to match and click the Manual match button.

  2. Confirm the generated Match key or provide your own and, optionally, record a comment.

You can edit and rematch these as many times as you need.

You can add break codes and comments to partial matches to track your reconciled data. What is a partial match in LUSID?

Once reviewed, you can submit the reconciliation results for approval by clicking the Submit for 4-eyes button:

LUSID enables you to set up role-based permissions to manage who can access and approve a reconciliation review. Read more.

Users with suitable permissions can inspect the reviewed results, add comments, and choose to:

  • Confirm 4-eyes

  • Return to review

You can rerun a reconciliation to check the results as many times as you need. For example, if you:

  • Amend your data and need to check the reconciliation results are now matches.

  • Add break codes and match keys to your results and need to confirm the results remain consistent on a rerun.

If you wish to rerun the group reconciliation, you can do so via Reconciliations > Overview:

LUSID displays an additional row for each reconciliation type per rerun, so you can easily distinguish between the results of each rerun.

Result status

Each reconciliation result has a Result status describing how the result transformed upon rerun, out of:

  • New

  • Confirmed

  • Changed

Note that when you rerun a reconciliation after successfully amending the underlying data that caused a break, the Result displays Resolved. LUSID records the amended data as a new match or partial match.
