Iress TeamAMA: I'm Rob Borthwick, Head of Product - Datafeeds at Iress, Ask Me Anything!
Hi Rob,
We are new to datafeeds and we are trying to get everything set up so we can start using the reports and rely on the data. There are a few questions that we have:
- We currently have over 15,000 items in our reconciliation summary report. Many of these items are false negatives and can be set to "Do not report". Is there an easy way to do this in bulk?
- There are some securities that are unlisted and the pricing is not coming through in the datafeed. We need to manually update the unit pricing in XPLAN. How can this be done?
- Similarly, there are some unlisted securities that we need to add to XPLAN and update pricing. Are there instructions on how this can be done? We've tried searching the online help, and can't find any material.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your questions.
I am not a fan of the term ‘False Negatives’ as all reconciliation errors are raised for a reason. Please note that the reconciliation report will show every holding that is held within a Datafeed account, whether supplied via the datafeed or manually entered. You can then use the filter ‘Quantity Reconciled = false’ to show holdings that do not reconcile based on units.
Regarding questions 2 & 3 – You can enter pricing via the Portfolio Products module. You will need to have appropriate capabilities ‘Edit Portfolio Products’, ‘Add/Maintain Private Products’ & ‘Create/Edit Product Details’
