• In case of a financial amendment, the system generates an amendment confirmation message as part of the DAMN event for the existing deal. This applies to both mail messages and SWIFT messages.
• Any amendment of a contract is not allowed if the contract is canceled or liquidated or reversed (for a contract status L, V or D).
