Adding and modifying an order passing group

As a company administrator, use the User Groups screen to create and assign users to order passing groups in your company. Users in order passing groups can pass the visibility and management of open, working orders to another user or group of users.

The user groups do not need to share their Order Books in TT. The passing action just adds temporary visibility and management of the order to the other order passing groups.

Note: Order passing can only occur between user groups that are configured to pass orders to each other. Order passing between different companies or between groups with brokers in different companies is not supported in TT.

Using the User Groups tab, you can do the following to support order passing:

• Create an order passing group
• Add a user to an order passing group
• Remove a user from an order passing group
• Modify an order passing group
