How it works
Slant connects to your custodian through advisor codes — the unique identifiers your custodian assigns to you as an advisor. When you add an advisor code in Slant, the system begins pulling account data for all accounts associated with that code. After adding your advisor code, your custodian needs to authorize data access — a process that is typically fulfilled within 10 business days. Once authorized, data syncs every night and keeps your account data, balances, and holdings up to date. New accounts that appear under your advisor code are picked up automatically during the next sync.What you can do

FAQ
How often does custodian data sync?
How often does custodian data sync?
Account data syncs every night. New accounts, updated balances, and position changes are reflected in Slant the following morning. Position data for newly synced accounts may take up to 24 hours to appear.
Do I need to add advisor codes for each book?
Do I need to add advisor codes for each book?
No. You can add advisor codes at the company level and enable them for specific books — a single advisor code can be shared across multiple books. You can also add advisor codes at the book level if they only apply to one book.
Can I use custodian integrations with prospects?
Can I use custodian integrations with prospects?
No. The custodian tab and portfolio analytics are only available on client households and trusts. Prospect households do not display custodian data.
What happens if I remove an advisor code?
What happens if I remove an advisor code?
Removing an advisor code stops syncing accounts associated with that code. Existing custodian account records remain in Slant, but they will no longer receive nightly updates. Any links between those accounts and clients may be removed if the advisor code no longer matches.
