The Net Asset Value (NAV) is the percent change in net worth, calculated on a daily basis. The NAV on the first day of a period is always 100, the next day it is the comparison of the overall net worth against the previous day's. This goes into the performance calculation.

A NAV run should be performed after you :

upload transactions
edit existing transactions
delete a transaction
amend/add/remove any prices for securities in your portfolio

The period selection should start on or before the earliest affected transaction and end on today's date.

NAV Calculation

In Engine you can calculate the NAV for your account using the NAV calculation function as follows :

Step	Process	Screen Shot
1.	Once the Account Code is selected, the NAV period has to be determined. Typically, the period selection should start on or before the earliest affected transaction (From date) and end on today's date (End date). Running NAV for the selected period of time will create a set of historical data points (NAV, P&L) that will be stored on the server for further reference and performance comparison over time. Alternatively, running NAV for the full period (Full Period Processing), on the other hand, will delete and recalculate all existing portfolio data again. This should only be done when there is a need for the system to recalculate all portfolio data due to major changes or amendments to data, OR when updating NAV for a New User. (Note: Full Period Processing may take a very long time to run)

NAV History

Under NAV History you can access all the NAV data for one or more accounts or child accounts based on a selected period (Traded On / Traded To) as follows :

Step	Process	Screen Shot
1.	Select the Child Account and the period for which you would like to calculate NAV.Leaving the fields blank will result in Engine showing you the whole NAV history for the selected account.
2.	Engine not only gives you historical NAV data but you can select from a vast amount of filters what data you want to be shown. The data can be exported to Excel. For that, simply push the Export Page or Export All button.
