Field	Description
Review (column)	This column contains the View and History function buttons that allow the user to access the details of the financial entity.
View	Click the view button to display the financial entity details window in a light-box window.
Edit	Click the edit button to make changes to the financial entity details.
History	Click the history button to display a table that summarizes the updates made to this financial entity.
Entity (Column)	This column contains the name of the reporter’s financial entity in the detail rows.     The “new financial entity” button  allows the reporter to create new financial entities from within the annual disclosure. The reporter is taken to the financial entity details screen. Once the entity is created, the reporter is returned back to the disclosure – where the new financial entity will appear for the reporter to select a value in the “Related” column to describe weather or not the financial entity relationship will impact the project.
Related (column)	This column contains the project-fe relationship of each financial entity to the project. The values that might be displayed here are: No Conflict Exists, Potential Relationship and Relationship Identified
Comments	This section is used to display additional explanatory text entered by the reporter while defining the project-fe relationship. The reporter can add additional comments or make changes to previously entered comments through the annual disclosure submission.

 

Adoption of Project-FE relatedness status with the highest numerical value as project and disclosure status

When the reporter’s master disclosure contains multiple projects, the system adopts the disposition status of the project with the highest number disposition as the status of the update master disclosure. This can be seen after the reporter selects the project-fe relationship and performs a save action.

    The statuses No Conflict Exists, Potential Relationships and Relationships Identified are maintained within the Maintenance Table COI Disposition Status. The calculation of which project-fe status to select as the overall status for the project/disclosure is based on the value of the numeric COI Disposition Code. The system considers lower values as “good” statuses and higher values as “bad” statuses.

 

COI Disposition Code	COI Disposition
210	No Conflict Exists
310	Potential Relationship
320	Relationship Identified

 

As shown in the example below, the COI Disposition value for value for “Relationship Identified” (320) is higher than “Potential Relationship” (310) which in turn is higher than the COI Disposition value for “No Conflict Exists” 210. Hence the system adopts the higher value status (Relationship Identified – 320) for the status at the disclosure level.

The Status of the Disclosure on the header panel is derived from project-fe status with the highest value.
