EP009 – OATS Phase III

Extends FIX 4.4 to carry the data required for OATS Phase III reporting, including whether an order was received manually, customer-directed venue selection, the department that first received it, customer handling instructions, broker receipt time, each desk’s receipt time and identifier, desk type, and desk handling instructions. The fields are intended for compliance reporting and do not alter execution behaviour. The document also gives fallback approaches for earlier FIX implementations that cannot support the official fields or repeating groups. [FIX Protoc…0111226rev | Word]
