Appraise Helpful Hint

"ESI-Direct & Common Asset List"

ESI-Direct significantly improves the process by which ONESOURCE Trust & Estate Administration (OTEA) clients populate their starting assets for estates and trusts. The burdensome process of having to enter holdings into a third party estate valuation software, export the accruals/prices to a file, and then import the data into the Fiduciary Accounting (FAS) or 706, is replaced with a seamless and integrated solution.

ESI-Direct can also be bundled with a Common Asset List which includes thousands of issues that can be imported into FAS & 706. This feature can greatly reduce the amount of time spent entering original assets, subsequent assets, and purchase entries.
