Appendix 6-G
Use of <Parties> Component Block: PartyRole, PartyIDSource, PartyID, and PartySubID
The <Parties> "component block" (see "Volume 1: Common Components of Application Messages") is a flexible mechnaism used to allow new "roles" or types of firm identification to be specified without a corresponding increase in the number of FIX fields. What previously would have required at least one a new field to many messages for each new "role" can now be supported via an additional value to the PartyRole field. In addition, the <Parties> component block makes it possible to identify the "source" or type of value (e.g. "BIC" code) you are specifying via the PartyIDSource field. The PartyID field contains the actual value and a repeating group of PartySubID and PartySubIDType fields may be optionally used to provide an additional level of subdivision. The PartySubIDType field can be used to identify the type of PartySubID value (i.e. "Firm", "Phone number", "Contact name", "Full legal name of firm", etc.)
The matrix below identifies the various PartyRole values and the anticipated PartyIDSource values which may be associated with each PartyRole. It is important to note that other combinations may exist. In addition, see "Volume 7 — Products" for any documented product-specific anticipated PartyRole mapping and guidance.
