How do I create or receive an execution?

You can monitor and record the details of your placement fills by receiving or manually creating an execution in LUSID.

There are several ways to receive or create an execution in LUSID:

• Receiving executions placed with a third party EMS or broker

• Manually, using the Order Blotter in the LUSID web app

• Using the LUSID REST API

• Using Luminesce

Receiving executions placed with a third party EMS or broker

If using one of our third party integrations to place orders, LUSID automatically records executions as your placements are fulfilled.

You can monitor executions using the Order Blotter in the LUSID web app:

Click anywhere on a row in the Order Blotter and navigate to the Placements and Executions tabs to view more details for the selected order block:

Once you receive executions, you can monitor or adjust allocations. See how.
