WorldSharp Stockholder Accounting System

 

Main Screen - Company/Issue Information

This is the main screen of the WorldSharp Stockholder Accounting System. It has tabs across the top and some of the tabs have additional tabs under them.

This is the screen to enter the issue information. The grid will have a row for each issue. Once the issue has been entered or selected, all other screens will have information for that issue. Many times, there will be only one issue.

Sub-Issues

The Stock Issue may be divided amount what we call sub-issues. For example one sub-issue might be used for 'common' stock and another might be used for 'preferred' stock. A stockholder could have common stock, preferred stock or some of both.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sub-Issue Screen Expanded

There are a lot of properties of sub-issues, so the screen can be 'Expanded' to look like this screen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stockholder Information

The 'Holder' tab contains the Stockholder Information. The operator can move through the holder records and search for a particular record by stockholder number, name or Tax ID Number.

There are other fields which can be displayed by pressing the 'Expand' button. The tabs at the bottom display specific information (certificates for example) for the selected holder.

 

 

 

 

Certificate Information

This screen displays the certificate information by certificate number. It shows or scrolls to all certificates instead of just certificates for a particular holder as the previous screen did.

The lines in the grid are color coded for specific types of certificates. For example a cancelled certificate is grey while a normal active certificate is white. A restricted share certificate is pink.

The screen also shows whether the number of shares is in balance. As certificates are cancelled, the screen shows 'Out of Balance'. And then as a new certificate or certificates are added, the screen will show that it is back in balance.

 

Certificate Screen - Expanded

When the 'Expand' button is pressed, the remaining fields for the certificate are displayed.

Dividend Calculation

A cash dividend can be calculated using the options and buttons on this screen.

Normally the operator would do a 'Trial Calculation' and if that looked correct, then the 'Calculate Dividend' would be run. When that is run, the disbursements are created and can be seen in the 'Processing/Disbursement' tab.

Print Forms

The operator can 'mouse over' or 'hover' on the form listed on the left side of the screen and the options for that form will show on the right side of the screen.

Print Reports and Labels

The operator can 'mouse over' or 'hover' on a report listed on the left side of the screen and the options for that report will show on the right side of the screen. If the operator changes any of the options, those changes will be saved by the system so that the settings will not have to be entered again the next time the report is printed.

The system will be intially set to use standard 3-up laser or ink-jet labels for the mailing labels. The settings for proxy labels are for 2-up labels. These initial settings can be changed by the operator.

 

 

Options

Most of the fields on this screen will be set by the operator when the Stockholder system is intially set up.

Administration

The Adminstration section is used to enable certain functions and contraints on the operation of the system.
