Hello Hiroshi,

While not a perfect fit I would investigate the use of the FIX 
CollateralAssignment message which is used to manage the portfolio 
collateralizing an ongoing position such as a Repo. The AM wants to change the 
makeup of an existing contract rather than enter a new trade, so the trading 
messages do not seem appropriate here. In CA you refer to the underlying 
portfolio swap contract through one of the trade references - ClOrdID(11), 
OrderID(37) or the <TrdCollGrp> repeating group.
