Create Reporting Data

Reporting in funds is done based on dimensions to provide more detailed and flexible analysis of fund performance and financial status. Dimensions are attributes or characteristics of a fund, such as asset class, investment type, geographic region, or time period, that can be used to slice and dice data in various ways to gain insights into different aspects of the fund’s performance.

By organizing data based on dimensions, you can create custom reports and dashboards that are tailored to specific needs and goals. For example, you might want to see how the fund’s performance varies by asset class, so you would use the asset class dimension to group data and generate a report that shows the fund’s returns and risk metrics for each asset class.

In addition, reporting based on dimensions can help complying with regulatory requirements and provide investors with more transparent and meaningful information about fund performance

Fund Management has extended Cash Flow Module to enable reporting based on fund ledger entries and dimensions.
