Overview

Exchange one security for another security (swap securities) across all models to which you have the ability to edit. This capability eliminates having to edit each model one by one.

The ability to edit a model applies only if you created the model, or if you are a system administrator or other person with a similar role at your firm. Note that when a model is shared with you, since you did not create the model, you do not have the ability to edit that model.

Swap Securities

If swapping for a security that does not align with an Asset Class model, a warning informs you that this may result in an invalid model (model with errors). Although you can proceed with the swap, you must edit the model after performing the swap. (Edit a Model)
