Examples include put and call dates for bonds and options; first exercise date for options; inventory and delivery dates for commodities; start, end and roll dates for swaps. Use LegComplexEvents for more advanced dates such as option, futures, commodities and equity swap observation and pricing events. The LegEvntGrp contains three different methods to express a "time" associated with the event using the [LegEventDate <2061>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2061.html) and [LegEventTime <2062>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2062.html) pair of fields or the [LegEventTimeUnit <2063>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2063.html) and [LegEventTimePeriod <2064>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2064.html) pair of fields or [LegEventMonthYear <2341>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2341.html). The [LegEventDate <2061>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2061.html), and optional [LegEventTime <2062>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2062.html), may be used to express an exact date and optional time for the event. The [LegEventTimeUnit <2063>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2063.html) and [LegEventTimePeriod <2064>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2064.html) may be used to express a time period associated with the event, e.g. 3-month, 4-years, 2-weeks. The [LegEventMonthYear <2341>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2341.html), and optional [LegEventTime <2062>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2062.html), may be used to express the event as a month of year, with optional day of month or week of month. Either [LegEventDate <2061>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2061.html) or [LegEventMonthYear <2341>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2341.html), and the optional [LegEventTime <2062>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2062.html), must be specified or [LegEventTimeUnit <2063>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2063.html) and [LegEventTimePeriod <2064>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2064.html) must be specified. The [LegEventMonthYear <2341>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2341.html) may be used instead of [LegEventDate <2061>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2061.html) when month-year, with optional day of month or week of month, is required instead of a date. ### Structure | Tag | Field Name | Req'd | Comments | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2059 | [NoLegEvents](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2059.html) | N | | | | → | 2060 | [LegEventType](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2060.html) | N | Required if [NoLegEvents <2059>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2059.html) > 0. | | → | 2061 | [LegEventDate](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2061.html) | N | Conditionally required when [LegEventTime <2062>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2062.html) is specified. | | → | 2062 | [LegEventTime](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2062.html) | N | | | → | 2063 | [LegEventTimeUnit](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2063.html) | N | Conditionally required when [LegEventTimePeriod <2064>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2064.html) is specified. | | → | 2064 | [LegEventTimePeriod](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2064.html) | N | Conditionally required when [LegEventTimeUnit <2063>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2063.html) is specified. | | → | 2341 | [LegEventMonthYear](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2341.html) | N | | | → | 2065 | [LegEventPx](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2065.html) | N | | | → | 2066 | [LegEventText](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2066.html) | N | | | → | 2074 | [EncodedLegEventTextLen](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2074.html) | N | Must be set if [EncodedLegEventText <2075>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2075.html) field is specified and must immediately precede it. | | → | 2075 | [EncodedLegEventText](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2075.html) | N | Encoded (non-ASCII characters) representation of the [LegEventText <2066>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_2066.html) field in the encoded format specified via the [MessageEncoding <347>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/tagNum_347.html) field. | ### Used In - [](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep292/compBlock_InstrumentLeg.html) - Follow OnixS - [Follow us on Twitter ](https://twitter.com/onixsbiz) - [Connect with us on LinkedIn ](https://www.linkedin.com/company/onix-solutions/) We track how people interact with our online web content and resources, and some of that tracking involves storing cookies on your device.
