A New Order Number for Manual Executions

A New Order Number for Manual Executions

With this enhancement, users can include a 20 digit alpha-numeric order number on allocations. This is already occurring for orders executed via FIX. Now users can also include an order number for manually executed orders.

The new field is called "OMS ORDER ID" and is added to the APL Execution Screens EXECUTE TRADES and FULL EXECUTION in the WINDOW environment.

There is a condition that would force the user to enter the “OMS ORDER ID” for FIX eligible issue types within the "EXECUTE TRADES" and “FULL EXECUTION” screens, therefore a new pop up message, “OMS ORDER ID is a required field for FIX Route Eligible Issue Types” will be displayed. This message will be displayed if a user tries to save, using F-10, without entering the OMS ORDER ID.

Users can go back by pressing the Esc key to exit the pop-up message, then enter the OMS ORDER ID, and press F-10 to Save.

If the security is not a FIX ROUTE eligible issue type, then the 'OMS ORDER ID' field will be shown on the screen, but the user will not be able to populate any value in the field (it is un-editable.)

Note: Only a SUPERUSER ID in EDSETUP can bypass the OMS ORDER ID field by pressing the Esc Key and F-10 to Save.

Users can manually enter the order number information in the “Full Execution” and “Execute Trades” options within BLOCK ORDER and have the order number communicated back to the client on the EOD allocation file.

Execute Trades Screen

Users will populate the OMS ORDER ID when they manually execute their step-out equity orders via the EXECUTE TRADES screen.

If the security is not included in the Security Class for FIX, then this field is shown on the screen, but the user will not be able to populate it.

Full Execution Screen

Similar to "Execute Trades," the user can manually enter the Order number information within the “Full Execution” options within WINDOW; BLOCK ORDER and have the order number communicated back on the End of Day allocation file.

Note: Columns to the left of the "EXEC PRICE" column should be static and non-editable on Screen 1.

In addition, changes to Screen 1, Screen 2 and Screen 3 will be made to accommodate the new OMS ORDER ID field.

Note: Un-editable columns will remain un-editable.

Once the user manually enters the OMS ORDER ID information within the “Full Execution” and “Execute Trades” options within BLOCK ORDER, the order number will be communicated back on the EOD allocation file, therefore, the new OMS ORDER ID will be added to the ALC file.
