The following table lists the fields, STAR tag number, and descriptions of the fields affected by the S2P derivation logic for forward contracts.
Option | Tag | Description |
---|---|---|
MTTYPE | 1 | TRADEFWD transactions are split into a closing transaction and an opening transaction. This can be unrelated to the business purpose of the transaction. A closing/ opening transaction can initiate a position or close an existing position. Options include:

Buy/Sell Indicator | 1364 | STAR populates the Buy/Sell Indicator on the position level of the object for both the legs of the forward contract. The value is established for the lifecycle of the position when STAR initially creates the new forward position (leg). The field is reset when a new transaction arrives that predates the existing processed contract. The STAR AS OF processing supports the submission of transactions out of order, that is, the STAR roll back and replay reprocesses the transactions in the true order. Note: When the value is set incorrectly, you must cancel the transaction and create a new forward contract security master record. |
Forward Close Eligible Indicator | 3924 | Specifies the entity option created during the Create Entity function to control forward close eligibility. Options include:
Note: A position holds only one transaction until maturity. |
