iPAS Integration with Q2

iPAS is fully integrated with the Q2 Investment Workflow System--in real-time. All transaction activities submitted by fund participants via iPAS are immediately recorded within Q2, and Q2 contains a real-time transaction monitor and audit trail that enable fund sponsors to instantly observe participant iPAS activity.

Participant account statements, transaction histories and investment positions can be generated for any time period. Additionally, the power of Q2 with iPAS integration enables common fund administrators to monitor all iPAS participant activity as it occurs, complete with the date, time, and user identification on each action.

iPAS can be configured to allow actual transactions or just transaction requests. Requests must be approved or rejected in Q2 by administrators.

Using a real-time message server for communication, Q2 dynamically validates and updates the information provided to iPAS participants, including:

Investment Balances (Actual and Available)
Transaction Activity (Approved and Pending Settlement)
Contributions
Withdrawals
Interfund Transfers
Investment and Transaction Payment Methods
Transaction Policies for Amounts, Dates, and Time of Day
Administrative Notices
