"Conditionally Required Field Missing" means you are trying to extract an optional field that isn't present. (It's not required by the DD, but the user's logic expects it to be there, hence "conditionally required".)

The first 35=j message says:

  • 45=3 - sequence number of message where these happened
  • 58=Conditionally Required Field Missing
  • 372=8 - type of message where this happened
  • 380=5 - same code as explained in 58

Unfortunately, the message doesn't say which field is the problem, but basically, you're doing this (forgive my pseudocode):

var x = msg.getSomeOptionalField()

but you need to do this:

var x = null;
if (msg.checkIfSomeOptionalFieldIsPresent())
    x = msg.getSomeOptionalField();

In order to parse your own FIX messages use FIXimate.

58 is a text field. The text after 58 in this case is the error message. The tag value pair 372=83 means: The message referred to (i.e. the missing tag) is tag 83.

Tag 83 is the sequence number of message within report series. FIXimate says that 83 is "Used to carry reporting sequence number of the fill as represented on the Trade Report Side."

This is your FIX engine sending an error back to the exchange. You can tell by looking at the SenderCompID and TargetCompID for each message.

You send a message:

20170203 15:44:04.225:8=FIX.4.49=15135=G34=349=tgFZctx200U6152=20170203-15:44:04.22556=FG

You get an Execution Report (35=8, probably acknowledging order cancellation/replace):

20170203-15:44:04.225 : 8=FIX.4.49=23235=8 49=FG 56=tgFZctx200U61lo9

You send an Business Reject (35=j):

20170203-15:44:04.275 : 8=FIX.4.49=115 35=j 34=4 49=tgFZctx200U61 52=20170203-15:44:04.275 56=FG 45=358=Conditionally Required Field Missing372=8380=510=065

What this last message coming in from the exchange is, is hard to tell without further analysis, but it most likely the execution report for the replaced order. It seems to have been sent 1 ms after the original execution report.

Your FIX engine expects certain data to be present within the messages. The expectation is set in your data dictionary, an xml file which should be provided by your counterparty. Sometimes (like now) there are errors in this file and you have to open it up, find the message in question (in this case the original execution report), and tell your data dictionary not to expect tag 83.

That should clear things up. Let me know if it doesn't work.
