{{Quickfixn}} I am getting an a reject (39=8) with the text saying "Allocation Qty has non-numeric data.

[Mark Cooke]

I do have those, yes.
I see these with 80=0.0003
(for one example)

When I search for any %80=0.000% I have seen 5 of these over time, and 
they have all been rejected with the text mentioned.
