Type | String |
Description | Security ID |
Required | Yes |
Sample | CASH0001 |
Rule | Must correspond to a security definition in the security file |
The Security ID field supplies an identifier code for the current security.
This must match a security ID that has been set up in the security definition file, and an error is flagged if no matching definition is found.
Just as for security IDs in the security master file, the Security field can be made up of upper and lower case characters. However,
The SecurityID field is always converted internally to upper case before being used.
Therefore, a security with ID cash00001 in the returns file be matched with the security definition for CASH00001 in the security master file.
Note that you can use the name of another portfolio in the security field in order to set up a nested portfolio structure.
