    The serviceName specification is determined by your market data setup. You will need to reach out to your local market data team that is managing your Elektron setup to provide you with the name of the service delivering market data.

    Regarding the data you are interested in within that service, you will need to reach out to a Market Data specialist to determine the Reuters Instrument Code (RIC) for the Japanese yen 3 months forward rate.
