This section on transaction reporting is split into four parts:
• Part I - General principles. Describes the general principles to apply to transaction reporting. It covers how to construct a transaction report, and in what circumstances and where to send the report. It provides high level approaches to reporting and further guidance on certain exclusions from the meaning of transaction as specified in Article 2(5) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/590.
• Part II - Blocks. Covers blocks (collection of fields), where each block addresses the relevant fields for a particular topic, with accompanying examples of how to populate these. The blocks are structured to be independent of each other.
• Part III - Scenarios. Provides examples based on different trading scenarios that a reporting party might experience. In particular, transactions resulting from transmissions of orders, grouped orders and the provision of Direct Electronic Access (DEA) are presented.
