Overview:
BGL has integrated with Evans and Partners, providing users with a daily, automated data feed.
The following information is provided through the feed:
-
Cash movements (bank transactions).
-
Investment movements (Buys & Sells).
-
Income transactions (dividends, distributions, and bank interest).
-
Foreign market trades and foreign currency bank transactions.
Authority Process
To authorise a data feed from Evans and Partners into Simple Fund 360, an authority form will need to be completed.
The authority form can be obtained from the Wrap Feed Setup screen (see below). Please send the completed Evans and Partners authority form to PortfolioServices@evansandpartners.com.au. A copy of the authority form is also available here:
Note: Any SMSF that has multiple portfolio numbers only needs to include one of those portfolio numbers on the signed form. Evans and Partners will automatically add any other linked client portfolio numbers to the feed.
Setup
To set up an Evans and Partners data feed within Simple Fund 360, please navigate to the Feed Management screen and follow the below instructions.
-
From the Main Toolbar, hover the cursor over Connect. Select Feed Management from the list. Select the Wraps and Platforms Global tab.
Within the Feed Management screen, click the blue ( + ) Setup button to create a new feed.
-
Entity Name - Ensure that the correct entity has been selected.
-
Feed Provider- Select ‘Evans and Partners’.
-
Account ID - Input the Account ID for the wrap account.
-
Bank Account - Select a Bank/Cash Account to link to this feed.
-
Do Not Import Data Before - Users can restrict the data that is imported by the feed by inputting a date. Clicking on the three dots will allow you to also enter a Do Not Import Data After date. If data has already been manually entered, this step will be necessary to prevent any duplication of manual work.
-
Import Distribution Components - Switch the toggle to ‘ON’ if you would like to receive distribution components through the feed.
-
Authority Form - Clicking on ‘Download Form’ will generate an authority form which needs to be completed for BGL to receive a data feed (see ‘Authority Process’ tab).
-
Holding Accounts Report - Once BGL has begun receiving a data feed for the account, users can generate an excel report which displays all asset accounts and corresponding Security Codes and Portfolio Codes. This can assist with the Account Mapping process.
-
Account Mapping - Users are required to link asset accounts to the feed to ensure that data is allocated to the desired asset accounts. If this step is not completed, the system will create new accounts to allocate the data. If this results in duplicate asset accounts, please refer to our help article Wrap Feed has created duplicate accounts?
-
Save - Click this button to ensure that any changes made are saved.

The system can automatically match the following types of transactions provided that the debits and credits reconcile between the transactions and that the transactions are recorded within a similar date range.
-
Investment movements (Buys and Sells) and the corresponding Bank movement(s).
-
Income movements (Dividends and Distributions) and the corresponding Bank movement(s).
Any transactions which have not been automatically matched or coded by the system will need to be actioned manually.
If a transaction appears to be missing, please perform a re-request on the data feed and check the Transaction List screen to see if the missing transaction has been imported.
If the transaction is still missing despite re-requesting the feed, please log a support call providing fund access as well as a copy of an Evans and Partners statement which lists the missing transaction in question.
Simple Fund 360 automatically updates wrap feed distribution transactions with their respective final tax components when the annual statement is made available.
