| **Field** | **Key** | **Null** | **FieldType**     | **Description**                                                                                                                                                                    | **Example** |
| DataSet   | Y       | N        | String            | Exactly the same as for ‘Dataset’ as defined for the TradeInputs file.                                                                                                             |             |
| Index     | N       | N        | Integer           | The index in the vector representing the PnL - the first element has index 0.                                                                                                      |             |
| Scenario  | Y       | N        | String            | The string representing the scenario corresponding to the index - for this reason, it is expected that the value of ‘Scenario’ should be distinct for each line in the input file. |             |
| AsOfDate  | Y       | N        | Date ‘YYYY-MM-DD’ | Timestamp (at close of business) for the data.                                                                                                                                     |             |
