All of my order activity rows show blanks in the ClientOrderID column of the Trade Activity Log. It would be very helpful if I could see the ClientOrderID sent on DTC requests and received in your OrderUpdate responses.
I wonder if this is something I can fix with a setting somewhere.
Thanks,
Dale

Is this for simulated trading or non-simulated trading? And you are submitting these orders through the DTC protocol server?

This for non-simulated. The broker is Interactive Brokers, and the same issue is with my live account or with paper trading.
But just now I tested with Sim1 and still no ClientOrderID - the column is empty.

Yes, I'm trading through the DTC Protocol Server, on Listening Port 12099. Trading works, and the ServerOrderID column (and basically all other columns) are correct. I notice the ExchangeOrderID column is also empty.
I'm on version 2416
The column is blank for all activity, going back to 5/21/2022

This is considered the FIX client order ID and that is not used with Interactive Brokers.

The DTC client order ID is separate and is not displayed or even captured in this log.
