Operational utilities for QuickBooks, carve-outs, and trade extracts

The utilities page should feel like focused workflow support, not a miscellaneous bucket.
CSSI's utility products are designed to extend Advent workflows where firms need a specific operational fix rather than a new platform. They fit best when the core system stays in place, but the team needs tighter posting, cleaner portfolio carve-outs, or more reliable trade-extract handling.
QuickBooks Utility
"The CSSI QuickBooks Utility allows users to efficiently import invoices and payments into the system. Management fees and payments can be read from your portfolio management system such as APX® or Axys®. Fees can also be read from other systems such as revenue center."
- Trevor Keast, CSSI Senior Consultant
The QuickBooks® 2.1 management fee utility seamlessly integrates Axys® with QuickBooks®, allowing you to post fees and payments directly between systems. During the posting process, the utility automatically creates new customers, generates invoices, and processes payments while providing reconciliation tools to identify exceptions.
Accounts can be linked to existing QuickBooks® customers or automatically created as new entries. The utility leverages your existing Axys® data to populate any QuickBooks® field, including custom fields, for complete integration flexibility.

CarveOut Utility
"The Carve Out Utility allows for the complete rerouting or the shadowing of any transaction based on portfolio code/class/type/symbol combinations to other portfolio codes. The Utility also includes 4 custom reports that help assist in the re-balancing of cash and maintenance of the carved out portfolios."
- Dale Honabach, CSSI Senior Consultant
CSSI's CarveOut Utility is designed for GIPS compliant companies affected by the 2010 rule changes for cash allocation. While companies previously maintained one account for multiple composites with split assets and allocated cash, new regulations require separate accounts with dedicated cash allocations. Our utility enables this transition without creating additional custodian-level accounts.
The utility works directly within your portfolio management system, providing daily asset splitting that integrates seamlessly with your existing workflow. It also offers account shadowing capabilities for maximum flexibility.
