First Coupon Date (473) and Last Coupon Date (474) are required fields for all securities that leverage the fixed income code. These fields have different names for some swaps:
First Payment Date and Last Payment Date
First Payment/Valuation Date and Last Payment/Valuation Date
For securities that use a Business Day Convention (1536) with an adjustment, such as ADJMBC (Modified Following - Adjusted)
, the dates must be valid business days.
In some cases, only unadjusted dates may be available in the security reference data. Eagle has functionality to calculate the adjusted dates in these cases. This can be invoked in both Issue Viewer and Message Center. Two options are available depending on your requirements:
Calculate First/Last Coupon Dates (2301)
Populate First Coupon Date with the unadjusted date
This is required to support stub periods
