Introduction
The Silo Certificates window can be used to add, edit, verify and delete Silo Spot Certificates. The window is also used to select a certificate when entering a silo spot ask/sell.
In order to facilitate batch creation of Silo Certificates, Swordfish also supports the import of Silo Certificates from an Excel sheet.
Method
1. | Ensure that you are logged in to the Safex Agricultural exchange, ensure is your Swordfish selected exchange and ensure you have trading rights on this exchange. If unsure about your trading rights then contact your broker to verify your rights. |

6. | Enter the required information in the fields and click the OK button. |
7. | Proceed with the Verification process.

Note
On the successful capture of a certificate, it will have an initial status of “Not Verified”. The certificate details must then be double checked, and if all details are correct the certificate can be submitted to the Exchange for verification using the Verify button. If verification is successful the certificate status will be changed to “Verified”.
The Exchange is responsible for the process that updates a certificate status of “Verified” to “Ready for Delivery”. Only certificates of status “Ready for Delivery” will be available for trading and these certificates may no longer be edited or deleted.
