C7 Releases

With C7 Release 13.0, the Position Maintenance Report (PMR) FIXML message will be enhanced by replacing user-defined values for FIX tag 709 (PosTransType / TxnTyp) with FIX standard values. The new standard valid values will be supported for both incoming and outgoing FIXML messages. 

Clients using PMR FIXML messages should ensure that their systems support the valid FIX standard values for FIX tag 709 (PosTransType/TxnTyp) in both inbound and outbound messages.

Several reports, including the Position Transfer Summary (CB730) and Average Pricing report (CB715), will be updated. Changes include new and deleted fields, updated field values, and structural modifications to the XML format.

Clients are asked to review the updated report documentation to assess the impact on their systems and make any necessary adjustments.

Clearing Members will gain more granular control, allowing them to manage product assignments for trading and clearing functionalities independently. This enables the removal of a product for trading only, or for both trading and clearing.

Clients should become familiar with the new, more flexible process for managing product assignments.

To improve resilience and processing capacity, responses to your FIXML requests may arrive out of the order in which they were sent. This change enhances the throughput and scalability of transaction management.

Clients are required to test their scalability settings in the simulation environment to ensure their systems can correctly process out-of-sequence messages.

Please contact your Technical Key Account Manager if you would like to access the simulation before 31 August. Otherwise, the functionality will be activated for all users in the simulation environment after this date.

As part of a security upgrade, Deutsche Börse Group is updating its Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). This will affect certificate renewal timelines and processes within the Member Portal.

Clients should familiarize themselves with the updated certificate renewal process and timelines. Testing in the simulation environment is not required. Additional details will be provided in a forthcoming communication.

The cash deposit limits for Japanese Yen (JPY) will be increased, allowing for larger single deposits. The mandatory four-eyes principle (4EP) and hard limits have been adjusted accordingly for JPY.
