Trade Processing
Refer to the Futures (FUT) Best Practices https://eagledocs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IE/pages/1658978644/Futures+FUT+Best+Practices#Trade-Processing, as modeling Commodity Forwards as Futures requires the same tradeconsiderations.

The performance toolkit calculates market value-based performance for Commodity Forwards modeled as Futures using data supplied by the S2P process. However, this can be misleading because Futures use notional values and typically start with a market value of zero. Exposure-based analyses, which can be implemented using Eagle Enrichment, calculate more accurate meaningful returns.
Automation
Eagle supports loading Commodity Forward (Future without VM) SMFs and trades through standard Message Center streams. The SMF must be loaded prior to the trade (trades will not automatically spawn SMF records). Refer to https://eagledocs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/GENERICINTER/overview for more information.
