How to Resolve Shares Mismatch with NC #

What to check when there is a difference between shares in NC and our DB:

  1. First, check the Troublesome Investment tab in Djadmin offer details. If it is not accredited (Accreditation declined/Accreditation docs sent statuses) yet, it means that the trade associated with this investment is not Funded on NC’s side for 99% of all electronic methods. Also, there could be an Escrow failed status, which means the payment attempt was not successful. In this case, you need to contact the user and assist them with accreditation/payment.

  2. Second, check investments into this offer with status “Cancelled by Manager.” Open each investment detail -> North Capital data tab. Click on the Trade ID link. In the NC dashboard, check the last status of this trade. If the last status is NOT “Cancelled,” it means that NC didn’t cancel it on their side by our request. In this case, you need to re-cancel this investment on our end by clicking on “Cancel Investment.”

Conclusions: These steps will cover 95% of cases of shares mismatch OR cases when you cancel some investment, but shares are not freed. There could be more complex cases where something is missed on our or NC’s end. In this case, we need to check each investment in our DB and associated trade on NC’s side to find if we are on the same track or there is a difference. File a ticket for the dev team if it is unsuccessful.
