How do I Import from Skandia?

In order to get started, please download the .zip file from the Skandia Website. This is done by clicking on Clients, then Download Client Data, selecting “All Products”, the corresponding adviser, and downloading the .zip file which appears at the bottom of the page after a short loading period. Please send the file to adviser@morningstar.co.uk for reformatting. Once the file has been converted and sent back to you, please follow the steps below:

  • Login to Adviser Workstation, click the Import button at the top
  • Double click “Custodian & Accounting Templates – Positions with History”
  • Choose the reformatted file from Skandia
  • Click the “Skandia (Post Processed)” template
  • Click the “Import” button

This will open the import blotter which gives you the opportunity to review the portfolios, positions prices and securities being imported. Look for items in red and red triangles. Items listed in red text need a security type to be defined in the “Security Type” column. Double click red triangles to choose share class. Once items in red have been addressed, click the “Post” button to finish the import.
