Bloomberg have announced that they
will be making changes to their Per Security Web Service with effect from Friday 10th
January 2014.
Consequently any customer using the Markit EDM Per
Security
plugin will not be able to connect after 10th January 2014 unless they
upgrade the
plugin on or before that date.
The change to the plugin is minor and
Markit EDM will be providing an upgrade of the plugin compatible with
all EDM versions in
use. No other aspects of Markit EDM are affected, and no development work
is required as a result of this change.
If you do not use the Markit EDM
Per Security Plugin then no further action is needed.
If you do use the Markit EDM Per
Security Plugin then please contact the Markit EDM Support team MEDM-Support@Markit.com immediately confirming which
version(s) of EDM are affected and we will then supply the updated plugin and
answer any questions you may have about the testing impact.
Bloomberg are
running both the new and old versions of the Web Service in parallel until the 10th
January 2014 so you will be able to test and cut over at any point prior to this
date.
