How to View the Timeline
Here is a guide to help you understand how to view the timeline and use it on Eqvista.
Step 1: Once you have logged into your account, selected your company, and reached the dashboard, click on “Cap Table” from the left side menu, and then on “Timeline” from the tiny drop-down menu to reach the timeline page.
When you do this, you will be redirected to the above page where you can see all the actions that have taken place in the company. This is an expanded timeline. You can see every action from the time the company was founded till the current transaction that took place, including:
- Number of shares authorized
- Share Class created and shares issued
- Option/Warrant Classes created and issued
- Convertible Note created and issued
- Shareholders created and actions taken for them
- How many shares issued
- Number of shares reserved in equity classes
- And many more
Step 2: If the timeline is long, which is only when there are many transactions that have taken place in the company, you will find many pages. To view the next pages, scroll down and click on the next page number.
Step 3: Here, you can click on any of the words in blue, and you will be directed to the source of that action in the company. For instance, we clicked on “ESOP” as shown below.
By doing this, we were directed to the following page.
This is the page where you can see the details of the “ESOP” class equity, such as the number of shares issued in the class, capital committed, and percentage of ownership. It also allows you to issue more shares to a new shareholder from here. To know more about this, check out the support articles here!
And just like this, if you click on any blue word or phrase from the timeline, you will be directed to the page related to the word/phrase. You can easily manage and handle everything of your cap table right from the timeline and dashboard.
