A system and method for financial account reconciliation of a portfolio account system includes, for investments that are not reported as trades once an order to purchase has been placed, using a computer to electrically match investments that are not reported as trades to unmatched transactions of the portfolio account system. In this manner investments that are not reported as trades once an order to purchase has been placed do not create breaks of the portfolio account system.

System and method for reconciling financial records by matching outstanding trade orders to unmatched transactions

A system and method for reconciling financial records is provided. Breaks are screened by user defined rules to categorize breaks into categories of relatively higher and relatively lower importance so that relatively higher importance breaks can be presented to the user. Values from a custodian system can be automatically accepted. Certain types of transaction differences may be selected to be automatically corrected. The types of corrections to be applied are selected. The financial account reconciliation system is updated with the values. For investments that are not reported as trades once the order to purchase has been placed, outstanding trade orders may be matched to unmatched transactions. For updates sent for an older transaction, back-dated transactions may be compared by automatically loading historical transactions and comparing historical transactions to a back-dated transaction as if it were not backdated. For investments that have information that will not be known until the investments are settled, proper matching of positions and transactions that have not yet settled may be enabled by identifying and ignoring the position and transaction breaks this unknown information causes.
