Alternative FID is 32743. However, since Reuters no longer support SFC Library, user cannot map the FID 32743 to the volume field on their trading system. What FID is available for SFC users?

    SFC is a legacy API but it is still supported by Refinitiv.

    From my test, SFC C++ can retrieve the FID 32743 (ACVOL_UNS) properly.

    All available fields used by the SFC application are defined in the data dictionary file (appendix_a).

    !
    ! The unscaled value of "Shares issued x Last Price". This is the 
    ! unscaled Market Capitalization of a security.
    !
    ACVOL_UNS  "ACVOL UNS"          32743  NULL        INTEGER            15

    The data dictionary can be loaded from the ADS or from the local file.

    The users need to make sure that this field is available in the data dictionary used by the SFC application. They can download the latest version of the data dictionary from the Download Center. It is in the Product Family: MDS - General and Products: TREP Template Service Pack.
