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

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.<div><div class="h5"><br>

The feedback we are getting from the customer is that they
believe this value is showing up in scientific notation
(they are showing us a screen shot of XML representing the
FIX message and they see ...
<AllocQty>3.0E-4</AllocQty>...<br>
<br>
(this is a new order for a mutual fund)<br>
<br>
I assume that display is some sort of red-herring.<br>
<br>
I am using FIX 4.4 (with QuickFix/N) for this.<br>
<br>
I notice the description of the type "Qty" is that it is a
float field.<br>
And I notice that the description of float suggests that the
number of decimal places used should be factor of
business/market needs and mutual agreement between
counterparties.<br>
<br>
Is this a common issue?<br>
