Usage Notes
Please bear in mind the following when utilising this specification.
String size
Certain tags of String datatype do not have specified values or lengths defined by the FIX protocol. This specification provides the maximum length supported by NSX in square brackets. For example, String [30] means that a maximum of 30 characters can be received by NSX, or sent from NSX.
A few tags, such as Text (58) do not have a defined maximum. For these tags, string size is denoted as String [unlimited].
UTCTimeStamp
NSX transmits UTCTimestamp values using the YYYYMMDD-HH:MM:SS.ssssss (microsecond) format.
All valid UTCTimestamp formats (e.g. seconds, milliseconds or microseconds) are accepted.
Handling of messages and tags outside of this specification
Any messages received that are not in this specification will be rejected.
Any tags that contain enumerated values that are not in this specification will be rejected.
