The Investment Summary is a standalone reconciliation template which relies on inputs in nominal accounts which have the Investments Register account template applied.
What does this mean?
Well, on your workflow, you will see the Investment Summary as a standalone template to be reconciled, however, you won't see something called the Investments Register account template. This is because it is an account template which is applied to certain nominal accounts.
By default, the Investments Register account template is applied to the following nominal account range: 1200__1306 (i.e. from nominal account 120000 - Shares in group undertakings - Cost up until the 130600: Fixed Assets Held for Sale)

To complete the investment register account template it needs to be populated with the details of the investments. At a minimum, the category and acquisition date and current value (b/f + additions + revaluations + disposals + impairment) are required. There are also fields for type, valuation model, description, original cost, quantity and comments to help keep a track of important information that may be needed in the future.
