ALERT KEY AUTO SELECT (AKAS)
Issue
How to allow export of the ALERT KEY AUTO SELECT (AKAS) to HOST in Confirm Application?
Solution
CTM introduced a new value ‘AKAS’ as of Aug 2019 for the SettlementInstructionsSourceIndicator.
Optitrade Confirm has the capability to send this value to host or suppress it. This is a configurable setting in ConfimPluginConfig.xml.
Optitrade Confirm uses the alloc_detail row to export the SettlementInstructionsSourceIndicator
exp_adm keys,BRKBIC,IMBIC,30905800031001,123456789000,IM123456778-1,1 status,RCVD,06-Jul-20,07:21 alloc_detail,USD,0.00000000,ZVPU,AKAS,,150000.00,H,N sysdatetime,,,06-Jul-20,14:14,,,,,,,,,,,27-Feb-20,07:21,,,,,, inst_delivery,,USA,COB,, rcv_comment,"RCVD" ctm,,,,,,,0,0,0,0,0,0,,,,,,
If you are using version 5.6.0.13 or higher you can configure this setting as following in the ConfirmPluginConfig.xml as below.
1. Take a backup of ConfirmPluginConfig.xml
2. In ConfirmPluginConfig.xml, under Host ID="HOST", Add the setting
<SettlementInstructionsSourceIndicator value="AKAS" mapto="A" /> or
<SettlementInstructionsSourceIndicator value="AKAS" mapto="O" /> or
<SettlementInstructionsSourceIndicator value="AKAS" mapto="AKAS" />
In case you are on a lower version of Confirm, please contact customercare.optitrade@kofax.com so we can assist you with your version.
