Booking transactions into LUSID

The TransactionBooking configuration set contains one configuration item per system setting available to control the way the LUSID UpsertTransactions API behaves when inserting or updating transactions in a transaction portfolio.

Configuration item (system setting)	Default value	Explanation
`ValidateInstruments`	`False`	Set to `True` to fail an entire upsert operation if a single transaction in the set fails to resolve to a unique instrument already mastered in LUSID. Note `True` also causes a manual holdings adjustment made using either the LUSID SetHoldings or AdjustHoldings APIs to fail in the same circumstances. When `ValidateInstruments` is `False` (the default), an upsert operation succeeds and any transactions that fail to resolve are mapped to the unknown instrument.
`ValidateTransactionTypes`	`False`	Set to `True` to fail an entire upsert operation if a single transaction in the set fails to resolve to a known transaction type. When `ValidateTransactionTypes` is `False` (the default), an upsert operation succeeds and any transactions that fail to resolve are omitted when LUSID generates holdings.
`SetTradeToPortfolioRate`	`False`	Set to `True` to retrieve a value for the `TradeToPortfolioRate` system property using the recipe identified using the setting below for all transactions in a foreign currency (ie. not in the portfolio base currency). When `SetTradeToPortfolioRate` is `False` (the default), you must explicitly add `TradeToPortfolioRate` to the `properties` collection of each foreign currency transaction in order to maintain the cost basis of a portfolio.
`TradeToPortfolioRateRecipe`	`recipescope/recipecode`	If you `SetTradeToPortfolioRate` to `True`, specify the scope and code of a recipe that enables LUSID to look up an FX rate in the LUSID quote store to act as the value for the `TradeToPortfolioRate` system property.
