  • What causes this issue?

    For options with American exercise category, the start of the term is
    the same as the notification period.
    The start of the notification period is required for the analysis of the
    generic transaction. However, this value is missing from elementary
    transaction &V1&.
    <ZH>Note:</> The system determines the number of the elementary
    transaction for a generic transaction (transaction RCA00) by assigning
    numbers, starting with 1, on each level of the hierarchy tree, starting
    from the top and working downwards. In the external data transfer, this
    number matches the NGIDNR, the sequential number for a GID in the FGET.
    <ZH>Example:</>
    Number,, Tree
    1,,,, Elementary transaction (top level)
    2,, ,, |_ Elementary transaction (second level)
    4,,,, |_Elementary transaction (third level)
    5,,,, |_Elementary transaction (third level)
