=How to use FSQ IDs in the Fundamental Data Form (FDF)=
 
In the following, we would like to explain you, how to use <u>Fundsquare's internal identification numbers</u> of instruments which are available in column 45, 46, 47 of the Fundamental Data Form (Id Fund, Id Sub-Fund, Id Share-Class).
 
(1) <u>Modification of an instrument</u>
 
If you modify an instrument '''<u>the three FSQ Id must not be changed under no circomstances</u>.'''
 
For example, if you want to change a sub-fund name, the new name must be reported in the appropriate cell. '''DO NOT CHANGE''' the FSQ IDs.
 
[[File:1 FSQ ID FDF.png|border|300 px]]
 
 
(2) <u>Closure of an instrument</u>
 
If you want to close an instrument, the appropriate cells in column 13, 24, 34 have to be completed with the closure date. '''DO NOT CHANGE''' the FSQ IDs.
 
[[File:1 FSQ ID FDF.png|border|300 px]]
 
 
(3) <u>Creation of a new fund</u>
 
To create a new fund, select a standard FDF extraction with the same fund structure (SICAV i.e..) and the same Law directive (P110 i.e..) as the new one you will have to create.
 
'''<u>IMPORTANT</u>''': you '''must <u>REMOVE</u> all ID instruments''' from the cells in columns 45, 46 and 47 as they refer to a <u>already existing instrument</u>', and the risk is you replace the existing fund name by the new one).
 
[[File:2 FSQ ID FDF.png|border|300 px]]
 
 
(4) <u>Creation of a new sub-fund</u>
 
For example, if you want to add 3 sub-funds to an existing fund, you have to add 3 lines to the extraction template and complete the appropriate cells.
 
'''<u>REMOVE</u> Id Sub-Fund and Id Share-Class''', but '''<u>DO NOT CHANGE</u> the Id Fund'''.
 
[[File:3 FSQ ID FDF.png|border|300 px]]
 
 
(5) <u>Creation of a new share-classes</u>
 
For example, if you want to add 5 share-classes to an existing sub-fund, you have to add 5 lines to the existing sub-fund structure in the extraction template. Complete all cells accordingly.
 
'''<u>REMOVE</u> Id Share-Class''', but '''<u>DO NOT CHANGE</u> the Id Fund and Id Sub-Fund'''.

FAQ

Your module is greyed out?

To get access to this module, please ask your e-file local administrator to make you member of the Distribution matrix and Registration matrix groups.
Registration and distribution matrix is greyed out.

How can I batch upload registration or distribution statuses? Can I bulk upload multiple registration/distribution statuses in one go?

Registration statuses can be uploaded by providing a .csv file with the following columns to rs.clientsupportoperations@fundsquare.net: ISIN;Country;Status;effective date (not mandatory).
Example:
LU1234567890;BE;R
LU2124567890;DE;RX;24/01/24
LU1231231234;FR;DX

Why has the Distribution Status not been updated to Registered ('R') despite the R to D automation?

If the current distribution status is DX, it will not be updated by an automation and has to be updated manually. Please also note that the automation only works for countries with a filing setup.

I can not find a closed share-class in the registration matrix

Please make sure filter status "closed" is selected

Why does the registration or the distribution matrix appear to be empty?

This is due to missing access rights. The latter have to be requested by email to rs.clientsupportoperations@fundsquare.net

How can I add a new country to the registration matrix?

New countries can be added by clicking on the Manage Country button available on the top of the page

How can I see the audit trail of a registration or distribution status?

Please click on the "clock" symbol

How can I extract a registration matrix?

Registration and distribution extracts are available in the "reports" section of the registration and distribution matrix module

Can we see the number of shares with status by country ?

Yes, please click on the consolidated view tab in the registration and distribution matrix module

What does this button mean?

This button allows to select all statuses at fund or umbrella level
