Account Maintenance – View

The Account Maintenance – View screen allows the User to add accounts and associate the owners and controllers (individuals trading with discretion) to those accounts. Without registered account information, the EFS application will default to the non-member rate. Therefore, it is important to ensure that accounts are registered timely and accurately.

Account creation is done at a Main Account level (also known as an account alias, grouping account or roll-up account). All Trading Accounts are then associated to the Main Account. The User can enter the account owner/controller association(s) once for the Main Account rather than several times for each individual Trading Account.

Upon accessing the Account Maintenance – View screen, the User will be able to perform the following functions:

• Create a New Main Account – This function allows the User to create/register new Main Accounts, which entails associating the underlying Trading Accounts and the account owners/controllers.
• View Existing Main Account – This function allows the User to search by Main Account or Trading Account and view the associated account details.
• Edit Existing Main Accounts/Trading Accounts/Account Owners/Account Controllers – These functions allow the User to modify the details for existing Main Accounts, including the associated Trading Accounts and the account owners/controllers.
