Transaction Pivoting allows you to analyze transaction data across all your funds directly within Maybern, allowing you to answer reporting questions immediately and eliminating the need to manually manipulate data in Excel. Save views you want to revisit, and share those views with coworkers within your organization.

Accessing Transaction Pivoting

  1. Navigate to the Transactions tab in the top navigation menu

  2. Click the Pivot Mode toggle in the top right corner of the transaction table

Creating Custom Pivot Tables

Basic Pivot Table Creation

  1. Navigate to the Transactions tab (from the top navigation bar)

  2. Click the Pivot icon at the top right of the table of transactions (located next to the search icon)

  3. With Pivot Mode enabled, drag the fields you want to display as columns into the Column Labels box, and the fields you want to display as rows into the Row Groups box

    1. This allows you to aggregate transaction data by specific categories

  4. Add additional fields if desired to create nested hierarchical groups of data

  5. By default, transactions will aggregate by capital amount (see the Tips & Tricks sections below for more information on how to aggregate data by other key fund metrics)

Filtering Your Data

  1. Click on the Filters tab in the pivot panel

  2. Select from the available fields to filter your data:

    • Fund Family

    • Transaction code

    • Investment name

    • Entity name

    • And more

For these fields, you can use the searchable multi-select dropdowns to choose specific values.

Creating and Managing Saved Views

  1. After configuring your pivot table, click the Save As New button

  2. Enter a name for your saved view

  3. Choose visibility:

    • Organization - visible to all users in your organization

    • Only Me - private to your account

  4. To modify an existing view:

    • Make your changes

    • Click Save to update the current view or Save As New to create a new view

  5. To delete a view, open the saved view dropdown and click the delete icon next to the view name

Sharing Views with Colleagues

  1. Open the saved view you want to share

  2. Click the Share button

  3. A link is copied to your clipboard that you can paste into an email or message

  4. When colleagues click the link, they can view your exact configuration (if they have access to the same data)

  5. They can then save it as their own view for future reference

Downloading Pivot Tables

  1. After configuring your pivot table, click the Download button

  2. The exported Excel file will maintain your pivot table structure and data

Tips & Tricks

When working with a single fund family, you can aggregate (sum) based on calculation values:

  1. Use the Fund Family filter at the top of the table to select a specific fund family

  2. In the Values tab of the pivot panel, use the dropdown to select a calculation to aggregate

  3. The system will automatically handle positive and negative values based on the calculation definition

Note: Calculation aggregation is only available when filtering for a single fund family, as calculation definitions are specific to each fund family.

Use Cases

  • Create tailored reports that meet your specific requirements, such as:

    • Capital activity by investor and fund

    • Accrued management fees, offsets and breaks by investor

    • Unfunded metric by fund over time

  • Efficiently answer internal and external questions, and verify and validate your Maybern data:

    • Reconcile capital activity by investor

    • Verify calculation impact of specific transactions
