Assign Wizard Get Account Owner Overview

Registration data is only sent when the account is NEW.  If you take over an account, it may be "new" to you, but it is not new to the mutual fund company, so you will just begin getting transactions or positions, but no registration containing the name and address of your client.

How To Determine The Client

In this case, you will need to use the data presented to determine the identity of your client.  Usually you will know by the name of the fund, which clients you recently added who had that fund.

How To Use This Screen

If you know the name of the client, you will just need to click on the Select Name Field.  If your client is already in Advisors Assistant, just choose it from the list.

If your client is not yet in Advisors Assistant, click on the Add Button at the bottom of the list and add the name to the database.

Select Name

This is your normal choice on this screen.  It will bring up a list of all the names in your Advisors Assistant database.  If your client is on the list, just choose the name.  If your client is not on the list, then choose the Add button at the bottom.
