In responding to questions about Qty field usage for a significant potential user I came across the description of OrderQty (38) in the 4.3 spec: "This represents the number of … convertible bonds, etc." - probably the source of their confusion. We should search for these and replace them with "par, face or nominal value for FI instruments."
