Import dividends and splits in MT564 format files
The FA system allows you to import dividends and splits in MT564 format files and run them as corporate actions in FA Back. You can import dividends and splits in files that are in the ISO15022 standard MT564 format.
To import dividends or splits manually, do the following:
Go to Tools → Import file → Corporate actions in MT564 format and upload the MT564 file.
Check the result in the Tasks view. Search for the task by the file name in All tasks and All completed tasks.
Click on the task and review its details. You can see how many rows were imported successfully and how many failed. For failed rows, you can also see the failure reason.
Open the Corporate actions view to run the corporate actions. Follow the instructions in step 2 of Record and run corporate actions to client portfolios.
You can also automate the file upload with Camel routes (see File integrations in FA Developer guide). The file path for uploading is /back-writable/fa/import/general/csv-auto/mt564.
