CME announces EBS Workstation enhancements
International derivatives marketplace CME Group announces enhancements to EBS Workstation.
In Q3 2023, EBS Workstation will introduce the following enhancements:
- EBS Market Minimum Fill Quantity for IOC/FAK Orders
Users will now be able to set Min Fill Quantity on IOC/FAK orders sent to EBS Market. This option will be available on the Order Form and if specified the order will either be Filled for at least that quantity or expire as Not Filled.
- View Market Data for selected FX Futures instruments
A quick link is being added to the Side Menu that will allow users to quickly view recent market data for a list of selected CME FX futures instruments.
Starting in Q4 2023, EBS Workstation will migrate to CME Group Single Sign-On authentication as part of the final phase of moving from legacy EBS technology to common CME Group technology. Clients can choose to integrate with either CME Group Login Single Sign-On or Federated Authentication solution.
The migration to Single Sign-On will provide the following benefits:
- Enhanced User Experience: Manage only one user ID and password to access premium cmegroup.com content, permissioned CME Group Login integrated applications and other services for a seamless user experience.
- Optional Federated Authentication: Federated Authentication in which the user’s login credential and password and any additional security checks stay within the customer’s infrastructure and is never shared with CME Group. Customers have more control over what conditions their users get access to on CME Group systems. For example, customer security teams can choose to enforce IP address checking as a prerequisite to logging into a CME Group application.
During the migration period to ensure a seamless process, users logging into EBS Workstation will be presented a screen to self-onboard to CME Group Login.
Clients opting for Federated Authentication solution will work with CME Group technical teams to ensure smooth transition.
