{{Quickfixn}} Valid Field Type

It is not a valid FIX datatype, so it should not be in the DD.  In FIX, the
"int" datatype is not bounded by a max or min value.

Is this from their DD?  If yes, sounds like your counterparty is being
careless, which is unfortunately not unusual.  I think you can just change
it to int.  If the size limitation of int is causing a problem (unlikely),
you can change it to string and have your app code parse it to a long when
needed.
