Hi All

While implementing TradeCaptureReport message i found that
NoLegs field is mandatory and it should be non zero in 4.4.
if we have to send a single leg instrument how we can do this
implementation using 4.4 spec.

And for the same field surprisingly in 5.0 spec it is optional.

Waiting for your response

Are you talking about tag 555 (NoLegs)? Where exactly did you find it to be mandatory in the TCR? My FIXimate as well as Volume 5 for FIX 4.4 show it to be optional in the TCR. What did I miss?

Thanks Klein for your immediate response.

Though fiximate4.4 and 4.4 spec says it is not required.
We are using Appia 4.4 version in their docs they mentioned it is
required.(NoLegs tag #555 (repeated field indicator) REQUIRED)
And i tried with out this Tag to implement the TCR message using appia 4.4 server.But appia rejected the message saying that Tag 555 is missing.

Venkat,
NoLegs(555) is definitly not required in TCR based on the final 6/18/03 version of the spec. I searched through errata lists too and see no trace that it had every been required in earlier drafts. If Appia is rejecting TCR based on a missing tag 555 then they have a bug in their data dictionary.

Thanks Klein for your immediate response.
