Hi,

I can think of the following ways of handling unsupported optional fields:

1) Silently ignore the field.
2) Send a business level reject, for example an ExecutionReport to reject a New 
Order Single, indicating that the field is not supported.
3) Exclude the non supported field in our FIX repository which will have the 
effect that we send a session level reject instead with 373=3 (undefined tag) 
as we do not recognize that tag. 

Please advise

Regards, Bernt
