Indicative Repay Date:2020-05-21 It is technically possible to have multiple user attribute fields for a Money Market trade. This would need to be set up as [User Attribute field Name]:[Value];[User Attribute field Name]:[Value] E.g. Rollover Tenor:4 Weeks;Indicative Repay Date:2020-05-21 Note: 1. Ensure the user attribute field name is valid and as per set up in the system. If the attribute field name is misspelt (case sensitive) it will not be updated. Money Market trade will still be imported without the attribute. 2. Any invalid date (e.g. 2020-02-30) will not be updated. Money Market trade will still be imported without the attribute. 3. If the user attribute is a drop down field, ensure the value entered is the same as per the setup in the User Definable > Money Market Transaction. Any invalid value will be ignored and not updated. Money Market trade will still be imported without the attribute. To see user attribute setup, click here. |
