You must configure the Eagle environment before you can use the Trade Recon console for DTCC confirm and affirm processing for DTCC eligible trades. You must define the trade match keys to use and field tolerances to enforce for a successful match. Trades are eligible for DTCC processing when the security has the DTCC Eligible flag set to Y on the security master and the trade information satisfies these conditions:

  • Event Type for the trade must be a BUY, BUYCOVER, SELL, SHORTSELL, or CANCEL.
  • DTCC Bank ID must successfully resolve to the FINS number of the Custodian bank for a given custodian, using the Bank Account Relationship.
  • Entity information must exist on the ENTITY_EXTENSION table in the RULES database for the DTCC Bank ID, Custody Bank Account Number, Interested Party ID, and Interested Party Account Number fields.

    You see the Matching Rule Property dialog box.
  2. Click the Match Expression tab, if not already selected.
    You see the Match Expression dialog box.
  3. Construct the field expressions to complete the determination of a successfully matched trade using the mathematical tool set provided. You can use mathematical expressions and functions such as IIF, TRIM, and FIND.

    You see the Create Bank Account Relationship panel.
