Overview
FIX Module enables you to exchange FIX messages with your partners. The module translates all incoming and outgoing messages into the format appropriate for the receiving system. Integration with Trading Networks provides the flexibility to define rules to specify exactly how to process inbound and outbound documents.
This chapter explains how to use FIX Module to send and receive messages.
Note:
To use FIX Module, you must have Trading Networks already installed and running.
FIX Module exchanges both application and administrative messages with the FIX engine:
*Application messages. Messages exchanged with your trading partner through the FIX engine, for example, New Order Single and Execution Report.
*Administrative messages. Messages exchanged only with the FIX engine.
FIX Module stores all messages that it sends and receives in the Trading Networks database.
