Re: FpML-VAL cd-26 unhandled case



Matthew,

if the rules need to be complete with respect to optionality, you'll find quite a few others where this is not the case - because they were not originally written with that in mind.

For example ird-14:

terminationDate/unadjustedDate gt effectiveDate/unadjustedDate

A swap might have a relativeEffectiveDate instead of effectiveDate... Anybody got a fine tooth comb handy?

Dear VWG –

cd-26 does not handle the effectiveDate being optional.

cd-26 today is:
"
Context: CreditDefaultSwap (complex type)
[exists(feeLeg/singlePayment/adjustablePaymentDate)]
feeLeg/singlePayment/adjustablePaymentDate gt generalTerms/effectiveDate/unadjustedDate
"

There is a guard on paymentDate, there should also be a guard on effectiveDate. I propose the new rule be:
"
Context: CreditDefaultSwap (complex type)
[exists(feeLeg/singlePayment/adjustablePaymentDate)][exists(generalTerms/effectiveDate)]
feeLeg/singlePayment/adjustablePaymentDate gt generalTerms/effectiveDate/unadjustedDate
"

I do not know the scenarios under which generalTerms/effectiveDate may be optional. The schema fails to document what it means when the field is not present. We should also get the schema documentation fixed up to state what it means when the element is not present.

This is logged as issue: http://www.fpml.org/issues/view.php?id=926
