Action Item

First-In-First-Out (FIFO) principle and intraday processing, adapted upload files and T7 XML Member Reports (TR160-TR163)

The data processing will be adapted from Last-in-first-out (LIFO) principle to the FIFO principle to allow for orderly intraday processing of Trading Participant´s uploads. The intraday processing enables Trading Participants to ensure that data submissions are processed during the day and feedback about the validation results is provided back in the Reports TR160-TR163 in due course.

Trading participants need to adjust to FIFO principle and perform sufficient testing. 

Introduction of new intraday version of T7 XML Member Reports (TR160-TR163)

There will be three new intraday versions of the reports that will be provided in addition to the existing end-of-day report versions.

Trading participants can make use of intraday versions of these reports to speed up the error handling on their side during the day.

The Short Code and Algo ID upload and GUI (Graphical User Interface) enhancements

The Short Code and Algo ID upload GUI will provide the T7 XML Member Reports TR160-169 for download. 

Trading participants who want to make use of this enhancement can download T7 XML Member Reports TR160-169.

Common Upload Engine (CUE) enhancement

CUE will be enhanced with respect to the file name and processing. The file reject in case of erroneous data records is withdrawn, files will be transferred to the data warehouse and results are provided in the error reports, CUE will automatically apply the versioning and add a timestamp to the file name.

Trading participants are not required to correct erroneous records for a successful file submission. The CUE log file will still be provided but there is no immediate action required. Trading participants can wait for the full validation in the data warehouse and the final results in the XML reports. However, CUE rejects files with wrong file naming or structural errors. Trading participants also need to consider and adapt to the file name changes. Moreover, each trading participant can consider a timestamp in the file for the conciseness.

Facilitating a correction functionality for ongoing and historical (older than the past trading day) Short Code data submissions of Trading Participants to the trading venue

Ongoing corrections:
for incurred final missings, which are identified in T7 XML Report TR166 (starting from 18 November 2024 in production), the Trading Participants are required to deliver those Short Code registrations in due course. The overview of those final missings will be provided daily in the new T7 XML Report TR169. 

Historical corrections:
There will be the new reports TR170 and TR171. The content in these reports will be provided with the start of the correction exercise in February 2025. Dedicated publications will follow in due course.

Trading participants that need to perform ongoing corrections must consume this report.
For the correction exercise starting in February 2025, Trading participants can already implement the report structures.
 

Upload file changes

The structure of upload files for Short Codes and Algo IDs is changed to reflect the enhancements in the data processing. 

Trading participants need to consider the structural changes while creating the upload file.
