Partial Fill is Finishing Order

Imported from previous forum

If I have an order that filled but with two partials. Would the second and last partial be of ExecType Fill or ExecType Partial Fill?

Thanks,

Tim

With FIX versions up to FIX.4.2, the correct answer would be ExecType=Fill(2). This is illustrated in the FIX.4.2 specification Appendix D example D1.

With FIX versions after FIX.4.2, both these ExecTypes have been superseded by ExecType=Trade(F), thus removing the previous anomaly.

I hope this helps.
