5.24 ISDA Confirmation
This topic describes the details to capture the confirmation check for the FX deal events.
Using this ISDA check at deal product level, the trigger of an authorized event at contract level would trigger creation of a record in this screen with details used from the contract.
ISDA confirmations are designed to confirm the terms of a trade and will not have any processing impact for the contract.
ISDA confirmation status is marked as unconfirmed by default and would be manually updated by a user action to confirm once the ISDA confirmation is counter-signed and agreed by both the parties of the trade.
During the processing of the FX contract, a record is available for ISDA confirmation based on the event, if the product has the ISDA confirmation check applicable for that particular event.
- On the Home page, type FXDISDCO in the text box, and click the next arrow.
ISDA Confirmation screen is displayed.
