Reference data values

Edit and search the user-defined values of issuers, brokers, account groups, benchmarks, desks and list entries.

Securities, accounts, models and desks have their user-defined fields on their own forms. This page covers every table, including those without a form of their own: issuers, brokers, account groups, benchmarks, desks and the entries of restricted, watch and exclusion lists.

1. Pick the table.
2. Search: code or name, or a user-defined field marked searchable ("In").
3. Open a record and change its values; they are validated like any form (type, required, minimum and maximum, pattern, list options).

If a table has no active fields the page says so, with a link to set them up (User-defined fields). Values can also be loaded from files, XML feeds (version 1.1 formats) and the API (PUT /udf/{table}/records/{key} with If-Match).

• User-defined fields Ten fields of your own on each reference table: define them, validate them, and use them on forms, the blotter, in loads, compliance and workflow rules.
• The loading center Load reference data, holdings and market data from a file or a folder: column mapping, deterministic validation, a diff before anything changes, apply and undo.
• Packages, account groups and lists Rule packages (mandate templates) and their assignments, account groups, restricted, watch and exclusion lists, and rule exceptions.

Do it with the API

Every action on this screen can also be done by your own systems, under the same permissions. See Authentication to get a token.

• PUT/api/v1/udf/{table}/records/{key} Set user-defined values of one record (If-Match)
• GET/api/v1/issuers Issuers
• GET/api/v1/brokers Brokers (reference only: Vestoris connects to no broker)
• GET/api/v1/benchmarks Benchmarks with constituents
• GET/api/v1/account-groups Account groups (members limited to the accounts you can see)

Paper trading only: orders and fills in Vestoris are simulated. Nothing here is investment advice.
