Be aware that historical logic for Trade Ticket Number (tag 761) is slightly different from that used for the broker or trade ticket number. For manual non-taxable transfers (at amortized or original cost), the Trade Ticket Number value populates on the To transactions but not the From transactions. For manual taxable transfers (at market price) , the Trade Ticket Number value does not populate on the To transactions or the From transactions.
Use Manual Interportfolio Transfers with Derivatives
You can use a manual interportfolio transfer to support contract novation for certain types of derivatives when you use the Market transfer method. Contract novation is an act in contract and business law that either replaces a contract obligation with a new one, adds an obligation, or replaces a party to the agreement. It is a legal process of ending a contract between the original trading counterparties and creates two new contracts between the original trading counterparty and the central counterparty. You can use the Run an Interportfolio Transfer panel to transfer a credit default index (CDX) swap using the Market transfer method. Or you can use the Run Interest Rate Swap Transfer panel to transfer an interest rate swap using the Market transfer method. During the transfer, you can modify the clearing broker.

You can perform a rule-based interportfolio transfer by first defining a single step or a multi step interportfolio transfer rule with the transfer criteria and then triggering that transfer rule to execute the transfer. If you define an interportfolio transfer rule for a multi basis entity and you want to use different price/transfer methods for the accounting bases, you can use the multi basis transfer rule election panels to identify the price/transfer method to use for each accounting basis during the interportfolio transfer.
