Manage Pending Trade Rules

Pending trade rules, previously called flagged position rules, specify the criteria that the system uses to assign a pending status to transactions that require evaluation prior to processing. You define a set of pending trade rules to provide the criteria that the system uses to identify pending transactions. You can create pending trade rules at the entity, asset, processing security type (PST), security type, message type, and event type level, using combinations of these criteria to create a rule. Corporate actions are ineligible for pending transaction activity. You can also add pending trade rules for use in reporting alone.

Eagle provides two methods for adding pending trade rules. You can use the Create Pending Trade Rule Detail Positions panel to create rules that mark individual positions as eligible for pending transaction activity. You can also use the Create Pending Trade Rule Detail panel to define pending trade rule details based on general criteria that do not consider actual holdings.
