titleWhat are the default filters and what are their default values? (for example, effectivedate defaults to current day, etc.)
There is only one default filter – maxrows (count of max returned records in the extract file) – the default value of this parameter is 100.000 records (refer to http://eagle.helpdocsonline.com/available-filters$Common%20Filter).. For more information, see the Available Filters page in the EagleML wiki.

titleWhat was the rationale for having the workflows not "stack up" on each other? When one workflow is run with the same I2IProcessUID, it will kill the prior extract.

There are two different cases:

Case #1 is for the STOP-START steps in the EJM Monitoring Tool. In the STOP step, the EJM core tries to stop the previously launched instance of the same workflow. This means that if we submit the eagle_i2i_full_extract_event twice, only one (1) instance will start.

Case #2 is for the I2IProcessUID parameter. This parameter is used only for the I2I delta mode and is related to the last run time. We can store several I2I delta workflows in one environment, so to separate the last time values for each delta workflow, this parameter will be used in the EagleML code.

titleIs it possible to extract only from the Composite table SMF?

Yes, it is possible. Do not set "historyOnlyFlag" filter value to "Y" – skip it in RTR or set to "N". In this case, Composite SMF table will be used

titleHow can we find out what version of I2I we are running?

I2I is part of EagleML, we don't have a separate version for I2I. EagleML/I2I have the same version.

To determine which EagleML version you have in your environment, open Message Center Editor and open the following file: /eagle_ml-2-0_cm/w_config.inc.

In the top line of this file, you will find information about the installed EagleML version. For example: <!-BR-EAGLEML_PRD_20151007.1-> 

In this example, you see BR-EAGLEML_PRD_20151007.1. This indicates that this environment contains the September 2015 monthend release. The date for the monthend release is typically the first Wednesday after the first Tuesday of the following month. For example, September 2015 EagleML monthend package was released on October 7th 2015. Refer to the related wiki page: http://eagle.helpdocsonline.com/checking-your-eagleml-version.You can For more information, see the Checking Your EagleML Version page in the EagleML wiki. You can also find detailed information about each EagleML release in the EagleML Release Notes section.

Filter Questions

...

Security Master File (SMF) Filters Questions

...

Expand
titleAs shown in the wiki for SMF filters, the Include form is the default. If I don't specify any filters, should I assume that no filters will be applied and thus all security types will be extracted, all process security type will be extracted, etc.

Yes, if you don't specify any filters for SMF, then all SMF will be extracted. There are no default filters, with one exception: maxrows (count of max returned records in the extract file). The default value of this parameter is 100,000 records

(refer to

. For more information, see the Available Filters page in the EagleML wiki

page)

. 
But, on the level of I2I processes, there is also the EntityList filter which can be considered default if it is set in the spoke map. The spoke can also use one of the available Sources from the Sources List to filter SMFs – this is defined in the spoke map.

Held Security Filters Questions

...

Expand
titleIf the held position

...

source is not selected, what is the default value? Does the extract look at all position sources?

...

If Held Position Source parameter is empty, the Held Position SQL query will not be executed. This means that the extract looks thru all positions sources (doesn't filter them).

...


Expand
titleIf the held position source selected, e.g. heldpositionsources = STARDIRECT, does the extract looks at all positions with source = STARDIRECT?
If Held Position Source parameter is set (for example: heldpositionsources = STARDIRECT), then all positions with source = STARDIRECT will be extracted.


Expand
titleSame questions for Held Cash Activity Source and Held Corporate Action Source filters.

...

This is also true for for Held Cash Activity Source. If Held Cash Activity Source is empty, then the Held Cash Activity SQL query will not be executed. If Held Cash Activity Source parameter is set (for example: heldcashsources = CASHTEST), then all cash activities with source = CASHTEST will be extracted.

...

Held Corporate Action Source is not used.

...

Date Filters Questions

...

titleCan this be used in the SMF request? And if so,

...

what is the meaning of Date filters for SMF extract?

...

Yes, they can be used in SMF extracts. But, the date filters are different for Date filters without Held Mode and Date filters with Held Mode.


Expand
titleIf effectivedate is selected, I expect the extract to look at the holding for the effective date specified in this parameter and extract all securities held for this effective date and entity list specified. Is this the case?

...

Date filters without Held Mode:
There is no "EffectiveDate" field in the composite SMF table (SECURITY_MASTER). This means that the "EffectiveDate" filter will be ignored if you extract the SMF from the composite table. If you extract the SMF from the history table (historyonlyflag parameter is set to Y), the "EffectiveDate" filter will be used in the following way:

Code Block
SECMASTER_HISTORY.EFFECTIVE_DATE >= TO_DATE([effective date filter value], 'YYYY-MM-DD')

This means that all SMF records from the history table with EFFECTIVE_DATE value greater than or equal to the effective date filter value will be extracted.
The "updatedate" filter can be used to extract SMF records from the composite or history tables in the following way:

Code Block
[Composite or History table].UPDATE_

...

DATE >= TO_DATE([update date filter value], 'YYYY-MM-DD')

This means that all SMF records from the composite or history table with the UPDATE_DATE value greater than or equal to the update date filter value will be extracted.

Date filters with Held Mode
Effective Date, which will be used as a restriction in the search for SMFs from Position and Cash Activity Sources, the value for Held mode is set by the following steps:

...

  • If parameter "ProcessCenter" is used (entityselectiontype=ProcessCenter, entityselectionvalue=[Process Center filter value]), then the value of "effectivedate" filter will be found from the RULESDBO.PROCESS_CENTER table, for example:

    Code Block
    select to_char(pc.curr_dt,'yyyy-mm-dd') EFFECTIVE_

...

  • DATE
    from RULESDBO.PROCESS_CENTER

...

  •  pc
    where pc.process_center = [Process Center filter value]

    To use two Entity filters, the following parameters are available:

entityselectiontype / entityselectionvalue
entityselectiontype2 / entityselectionvalue2

  • If we want to use ProcessCenter and EntityList filters together, we can use following structure:

...

  • Code Block
    languagexml
    <taskParameter>
        <name>entityselectiontype</name>
        <dataType>S</dataType>
        <value>EntityList</value>
    </taskParameter>
    <taskParameter>
        <name>entityselectionvalue</name>
        <dataType>S</dataType>
        <value>SCPAREN3</value>
    </taskParameter>
    <taskParameter>
        <name>entityselectiontype2</name>
        <dataType>S</dataType>
        <value>ProcessCenter</value>
    </taskParameter>
    <taskParameter>
        <name>entityselectionvalue2</name>
        <dataType>S</dataType>
        <value>US</value>
    </taskParameter>

    Order of filters is not important. "entityselectiontype2" parameter can be used for both, ProcessCenter or EntityList as follows:

    • If the value of ProcessCenter parameter is incorrect, then the value of "effectivedate" filter will be set as null.
    • If ProcessCenter parameter is not used and "heldeffectivedate" filter value exists in RTR, then "heldeffectivedate" filter value will be used for filtering by EFFECTIVE_DATE field, for example:

      Panel
      HOLDINGDBO.POSITION.EFFECTIVE_DATE = to_date([held effective date filter value],'yyyy-mm-dd')

...

    •  – for positions
      CASHDBO.CASH_ACTIVITY.ACCOUNTING_DATE >= to_date('2015-11-25','yyyy-mm-dd')

...

    •  – for cash activity


    • If ProcessCenter parameter is not used and "heldeffectivedate" filter value does not exist in RTR, then the value of "effectivedate" filter will be found as MAX of EFFECTIVE_DATE in the POSITION table. Conditions used in this query are: Date filter for UpdateDate, HeldPositionSource, and Entitylist.

titleIf effectivedate is not selected, what is the default, and does it look at the effective date of the holdings?

titleFROM effectivedate and TO effectivedate. Similar questions as per effective date.

For Date filters without Held Mode: "fromeffectivedate" and "toeffectivedate" filters work as usual:

  • for SMF extraction from composite table - aren't available

...

  • for SMF extraction from history table - are available, for example:

titlePlease give some details on how these filters interact. For example, if only FROMeffective date is selected, what is the TO effective date default?
"effectivedate", "fromeffectivedate" and "toeffectivedate" filters are available only for SMF history extract and not available in Held Mode as follows:

    titleIf EffectiveDate is set to the current day, a full extract is returned. If there are no holdings as of a specific date, will we see an error?

    This was a problem in the EagleML code, we have fixed it. It works correctly if we use the HeldEffectiveDate parameter instead of EffectiveDate in the Date filter. EffectiveDate in the Date filter is not used in the Held mode. However, current version of I2I doesn't support error descriptions in the final TSR, it shows only Status (SUCCESS, ERROR, NO_DATA). We are working on it right now and in one of the following EagleML updates, we will add this new
