Re: Accept / Reject message
Lisa Taikitsadaporn / Brook Path Partners, Inc. <> 12 Jun 2008 10:51AM ETThe only way to do this in 4.x is if your clients are supportive of using a custom message type (many don't want to deal with coding to this). If so, you can create a custom message type that exactly duplicates the Execution Acknowledgment found in 5.0.
Otherwise there is no other way to explicitly ack a fill in 4.x. The only thing you'll be able to do in 4.x is to use the DK Trade message to reject and go on the premise that if there is no "nack" then the fill is accepted - this is an implied model.
