Use the Stock Issues window to define basic information for your company's stock investments. You can define a stock issue for any stock that your company either trades in or wants to track.
Once you have defined your stock issues in the Stock Issues window, you can use the Stocks window to enter your buy and sell stock deals. See: Equities.
You can navigate to the Stocks window directly from the Stock Issues window to enter a deal for the active stock issue by choosing the Deal Input button. The Deal Input button is available if:
the stock issue is authorized for use;
your user responsibility includes access to the Stocks window; and
you accessed the Stock Issues window using Entry mode.
Set up a stock issue to define the key attributes of a stock. A stock issue definition can, for example, save you time when you enter several deals for the same stock. The stock issue also enables you to track a stock's performance, even if you are not trading that stock.
You must define a stock issue for any stock that you want to purchase.
