About the Trades Page (Siebel eBrokerage Only)


Through the Trades page, users can buy and sell stocks, mutual funds, bonds, and options. Also, assets from other institutions can be transferred to user accounts. Open orders for stock, bond, mutual fund, and option trades can be viewed and canceled.

From the Trades page, users can view their trade history.

In Siebel Finance, all trades map to the Service Requests screen. There is no direct link to the trade or investment views, as an administrator would configure the workflow processes to monitor for the Service Requests, and then execute a trade from a backend system.

Trade Cancellation

Trade orders can be canceled by drilling down on a trade number from either the Siebel eBrokerage Home Page, or the Trades Summary screen. To change default trade cancellation behavior, use Siebel Tools to modify the FINS eBrokerage Trade Detail Form Applet. The three applet user properties that govern trade cancellation behavior are described in Table 7.

Trade Error Checking

When a user enters a trade order, Siebel eBrokerage validates the order information. Each type of trade has its own validation rules that are configured in Siebel Tools by setting applet user properties for the following applets:

  • FINS eBrokerage Stock Trade Form Applet
  • FINS eBrokerage Option Trade Form Applet
  • FINS eBrokerage Mutual Fund Sale Form Applet
  • FINS eBrokerage Mutual Fund Purchase Form Applet
  • FINS eBrokerage Bond Trade Form Applet
  • FINS eBrokerage Transfer Securities In Applet

Table 8 through Table 13 describe the user properties for each of these applets, their settings, and the type of error checking that is handled by default when a user submits a trade.
