Where does one find…
*** REPLACED FIELD - See "Replaced Features and Supported Approach" ***
The reference above is used in FIXimate for deprecated fields, such as Tag 201 PutOrCall (which was deprecated in 4.3). Several other deprecated fields reference the same thing, but where is it?
Thanks, John
It’s Appendix 6-F within Volume 6 of the FIX Protocol specifications.

It is in the same volume 6(for version 4.4)
For your case ( tag 201 ) it reads:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
5. Replaced Field: PutOrCall (tag 201) and UnderlyingPutOrCall (tag 315) with CFICode (tag 461) [Replaced in FIX 4.3]
The CFICode was introduced to improve granularity in specifying security type. The adoption of CFICode has made the PutOrCall (tag 201) redundant. The PutOrCall values are numeric and this has led to confusion on their usage as the data is not self describing. The CFICode uses a more readable format of “P” and “C” for put and call.
PutOrCall values can be specified using CFICode via the following mapping table:
Removed field PutOrCall (tag201) values CFICode (tag 461) value
0 Put First position of CFICode = “O”
Second position of CFICode = “P”
1 Call First position of CFICode = “O”
Second position of CFICode = “C”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
on page 419.
The section "Appendix 6-F
Replaced Features and Supported Approach" itself starts at p.416.
For version 4.3 it is " Appendix 6-E
Deprecated (Phased-out) Features and Supported Approach" at page 220 volume 6
I hope it helps.
