How do I Confirm or Reject Transfers of ESCs (Exchange or Firm)?
Firms can confirm or reject a pending Exchange or Firm Transfer of ESCs. Begin by accessing the Inventory Edit Tender Submission screen. Further select Corn or Soybeans. To accept or reject a Firm or Exchange Transfer of a single ESC, input action code S (confirm/reject) in the AC (action) field next to desired certificate then press ENTER. To accept a range of ESCs through a transfer use the Inventory Edit by Range screen. This screen can be accessed from the Inventory screen by pressing the PF8 key. Once in the Range screen, input a valid warehouse, beginning and ending certificate numbers, and S (confirm/reject) in the action field provided then press ENTER. Users will be prompted to press the PF10 key to accept or the PF14 key to reject the transfer of ESCs initiated through the Inventory or Range screen. After the Inventory screen is refreshed, Chicago Board of Trade certificates accepted through an Exchange Transfer will display a quantity of “5” within the MidAm inventory screen
