iOS Datafeeds Overview
IOS Datafeeds are system Datafeeds provided by brokers using IRESS IOS as their backend system. Broker Datafeeds generally provide buy and sell data only (contract notes).
-
Set Up required: The set up for IOS Datafeeds requires account mappings (connections) for each client account to be set up. If the account mapping (IOS connection) has not been created the data will not flow into XPLAN. Some brokers also require IOS logins.
-
Maintenance: Most broker Datafeeds provide only buy and sell transactions (contract notes) in which case XPLAN Corporate Actions can be used to update client holdings with corporate actions such as dividends and dividend reinvestments. This can be done automatically, in a batch or for an individual client portfolio.

Mapping Advisers
The Advisers IOS login details will need to be entered into XPLAN. It is best practice to be logged into XPLAN using the Advisers XPLAN login before completing the following steps:
- From the Title Bar select XPLAN > Orders & Modelling Functions > iOS Accounts.
- In the navigation menu select Logins.
- Click Add Login.
- The Add IOS Login dialog box will open.
- Complete the Login details as required
- Click OK.
IOS Connections
As auto-mapping is not available for IOS Datafeeds you will be required to add the account mapping (connections).
It is recommended that you create a portfolio account against each client first before adding an IOS mapping, otherwise the default portfolio account will be utilised.
- From the Title Bar select XPLAN > Orders & Modelling Functions > IOS Accounts.
- In the navigation menu select Connections.
- Click Add Connection.
- The Add Connection dialog box will open.
- Complete the connection details as required.
- Click OK.
