Procedure

From the Manually Record Trades page, click the Bond icon to access the Bond - Record Transaction page. From this page, select Sell by ID from the Action drop-down list. The Bond - Record Sell By ID Transaction page displays.

  1. Select the account to which to record this transaction, from the In Account drop-down list. If you only have one account, this drop-down list is not displayed.

  2. By default, the Action on this page is set to Sell By ID. To change this, select a different transaction from the Action drop-down list. The fields that display depend on the transaction that is selected.

  3. Enter the date of the transaction in the Transaction Date (mm/dd/yyyy) field. You can also click the Calendar icon and select the appropriate transaction date from the calendar that displays.

  4. Enter the 9-digit CUSIP of the bond in the CUSIP field. You can then click Verify to confirm you have entered the correct symbol for the bond.

Note: Once you click Verify, a grid displays at the bottom of the page, if there are lots available. This grid enables you to specify lots from which to sell a specified quantity.

  1. Select the type of security from the Security Type drop-down list. By default, this field is set to Bond for this transaction.

  2. Enter the quantity sold in the Quantity field. By default, the face value of the bond is set to $1000. You can manually update this field if the bond you are selling has a face value other than $1000.

  1. Enter the Price of the bond in the field provided. Bonds price at a percentage of the face value. For example, 25 is 25% of the $1000 face value, or $250. For bond pricing at 100, enter 100 in the Price field. Do not convert this to the $1000 face value amount.

To calculate the Total Proceeds of the transaction, do one of the following:

  1. Use the grid to specify lot(s) from which to allocate shares to sell. Update the appropriate lot ID(s) with the Quantity to Sell. To clear the entered lot information, click the Clear button.

  2. To record the Sell By ID transaction, click the Record button. To record the transaction, and continue to enter additional transactions, click the Record & Repeat button. To leave this page, without recording the transaction, click the Cancel button.
