Start Continuous Market Data Supply 

Use

Report RFTBDF14 initializes the external partner program of the datafeed provider. All entries in the translation table with the “real-time” indicator are transferred to the external partner program. From this point in time, the external partner program is responsible for delivering market data regularly when there are price and rate changes. The market data buffer is also updated here.

The master data table (exchange rates, securities prices, etc.) is only updated with this report if an update is explicitly requested in Customizing of the translation table.

An error or information list can be generated if necessary.

Prerequisites

·        The link with the external partner system/coupling program is working

·        The external partner program supports real-time market data provision.

·        Customizing Settings are maintained for datafeed, especially the ‘real-time’ button in the translation table.

Features

Report RFTBDF14 initializes real-time market data provision.

It should always be used if the system (or batch management) is started up again and/or the external partner program has to be initialized again.
