Find the instrument
Open Securities. Choose All, Shares, Options, RSUs, Warrants, or SAFEs & notes. Records are listed with newer issue or grant dates first. Use global search for a specific label or holder when the register is long.
A filter changes which records are displayed; it does not remove data. Switching companies or replacing the dataset resets the instrument filter to All. On a narrow screen, scroll the table horizontally to reach the actions at the right.
Read the record and its status together
The register includes historical records such as transferred or repurchased certificates, cancelled grants, and converted instruments. Their presence explains earlier events and does not mean that every displayed quantity remains outstanding.
| Instrument | What to inspect |
|---|---|
| Shares | Issued quantity, class, price, vesting, and any transfer or repurchase status. |
| Options | Grant terms, outstanding and exercised quantities, vesting, cancellation, and exercise deadlines. |
| RSUs | Unsettled units, vesting, settlement history, and any liquidity condition. |
| Warrants | Quantity, strike, underlying class, and expiration. |
| SAFEs and notes | Principal or note balance, cap, discount, conversion status, and note maturity. |
Use the action that records the event
Choose the pencil action to edit a record. Options and RSUs also have Lifecycle actions: use these for exercises, certificates, settlements, and cancellations. Open Transfer or repurchase on an open share certificate for a change in its ownership or a company buyback.
Editing a holder name or reducing a grant quantity is not an equivalent record of a transfer or cancellation. The event workflows keep source records, successor certificates, dates, and quantities connected. Use the record form’s View history link to inspect its permanent transaction trail.
Read record labels and export the negotiated terms
Each record carries a generated label. Share certificates are numbered within their class using the class initials, so a Common Stock certificate reads CS-1 and a Series A Preferred certificate reads SA-1. Other instruments are numbered within their kind: OPT-1 for an option grant, RSU-1 for an RSU award, WNT-1 for a warrant, SAFE-1 for a SAFE, and CN-1 for a convertible note. Labels identify a record in exercise forms, reports, History, and exports, so keep them when reconciling with an external schedule.
When any record carries negotiated financing terms, the register offers Export financing terms. The report lists each share class with dated preferred terms and each security carrying pro-rata rights, an MFN clause, dividend events, an original economic basis, or financing evidence, with those terms as JSON. Use it to review the terms outside the app or to move them into another company; see CSV import field reference for the matching import columns, and a company JSON backup when a full round trip is needed.
Reconcile the register with ownership
The Securities view lists the records on file, including records dated in the future. The Cap table view uses its selected as-of date, which defaults to today. A future issuance can therefore be visible in Securities before it contributes to today’s cap table.
Do not add every number in the register to obtain ownership. Use the cap table’s outstanding or fully diluted basis, which accounts for closed records and linked certificates. Investigate differences using Reconcile a cap table before changing quantities.
