Revised August 25, 1998

File Description

The Investment by Type (IT) file provides greater detail on investments for each fund described in the Funds Assets and Liabilities (AL) file submission. Unlike the Funds Assets and Liabilities (AL) file, data in the Investment by Type (IT) file need not be audited prior to submission to HEI. The data, however, need to correlate with the data submitted in the Funds Assets and Liabilities (AL) file submission.

Submission Schedule

The Investment by Type (IT) file must be submitted before December 31.

Capture Date

The capture date for the Investment by Type (IT) file is the last day of the fiscal year, June 30.

Relationship to Other File Submissions

The Investment by Type (IT) file is to be submitted after the Funds Assets and Liabilities (AL) file is edited and loaded onto the database. The sum of investments for a fund in the Investment by Type (IT) file must be equal to the Investments field for that fund in the Funds Assets and Liabilities (AL) file.
