At transacttools.net I read the following abobut sequence reset messages:

The sequence reset can only increase the sequence number. If a sequence reset is received attempting to decrease the next expected sequence number the message should be rejected and treated as a serious error.

I am looking at pages 26 and 27 of FIX Version 1.1 Errata for the Fix Session Protocol and I don’t see requested sequence number too low, as one of the reject reasons. Does this mean I should use reason 99, other?

Thanks in Advance,

Clark

Please look at page 12 which describes the action to take in case of a serious error:

“It is strongly recommended that the session be terminated and manual intervention be initiated.”

Thus, you would not send a reject with a reason but a logout. There is currently a proposal from NGM (http://fixprotocol.org/documents/5164/NGM%20Logon%20Extension%20v07.doc) that would add a valid value to the SessionStatus (1409) field to convey the fact that the MsgSeqNum received is too low. The proposal is in public review period until today, July 5th.
