Introduction

For firms that have both Tamarac Reporting and Tamarac Trading, trading data is synced and becomes available in Tamarac Trading in the following ways: 

  1. Daily Sync.Each day, account data in Tamarac is updated, including any trading data. This is the most common way to sync trading data.

  2. Selected Account Sync.If you need to act on any trading data completed today that has not yet synced, you can use Sync Trading Data on an account-by-account basis.

Sync Trading Data allows you to synchronize data from Tamarac Reporting to Tamarac Trading for only the accounts you select. This avoids overwriting the day's trades or other rebalancing activity for all other accounts.
