An account creation is requested when a "Start an Advanced Fund Request" is used with "Advanced Funds" option selected. All account values are based on the IAF record.
If the IAF is matched to a Negotiation Manager record prior to the advanced fund request, all account values are based on the Negotiation Manager record.
