General Processing Notes

The following section provides information about general processing for FIX field names, field numbers, and allowed values.

The message mappings defined here use the FIX field names. For details on the actual field numbers and allowed values, see the FIX protocol specification version 4.4 at http://fixprotocol.org/specifications/fix4.4fiximate/index.html.

• Instrument Blocks
  Instrument blocks provide information about entities in the FIX messages.
• Data Aggregation and Missing Data
  Due to differences between FIX and RDS message formats, it may be necessary to perform additional steps before invoking the Publisher API to send data.
• Determining RDS Message Types Based on FIX Messages
  RAP determines which type of RDS message to generate based on the type of instrument being processed.
