Eurex Release 14.0: Important information concerning mandatory production report changes and documentation updates for Eurex Release 14.0

In Eurex circulars 026/12, 144/12 and 150/12, Eurex announced the Eurex Release 14.0 production update which is scheduled for 5 November 2012. To accompany this release, a new Eurex XML Report Reference Manual together with the corresponding XML schema files for the simulation and production environments have been published today.

This circular provides a list of the changes to the Eurex XML reports versus the current simulation version of the document from 18 July 2012. Please note that there are mandatory changes such as changes to reports CB010 and CB011 which must be implemented.

The changes will come into effect with the Eurex Release 14.0 production update on 5 November 2012. They will, however, be available in advance in the Eurex Release 14.0 simulation for testing purposes as of 28 September 2012.

Please note that all reports and theoretical price files will no longer be distributed via the MISS infrastructure. Instead, they will be made available exclusively via the Common Report Engine for Eurex production as of 5 November 2012. Participants using the WebTrading report distribution service are also affected and must adjust their infrastructure to be able to use the Common Report Engine.

The separately charged internet file provisioning service is not affected by this measure.
