Can I use the templates to create a new contract of an IRS with one year duration quarterly floating cashflows on the libor and 6 month for the fixed leg?

Can this be done from the web interface?

Any arbitrary IRS can be represented within the CDM, however, the schemas are quite complex. You can find examples in the `examples/NewTrade` directory in the repo.

While in theory possible for these contracts to be created from a UI, the schema complexity makes this incredibly cumbersome and error-prone. CDM is a data standard meant to be produced and processes by code, not by humans. What you could do, is create a helper contract that does the heavy-lifting of creating a full CDM swap based on a few inputs you provide it.

Thank you Georg,

Yes I will at the new trade directory.

What about the helper contract?

Hello all,

Good evening.

‘’’

- Start the automation by running:

```haskell
(cd app/; sbt "runMain com.digitalasset.app.Bots localhost 6865 {includeDemo}")

```

Set `includeDemo` to `true` or `false` depending on whether the application is run in [demo](https://github.com/digital-asset/ex-cdm-swaps/blob/ba8e1f0dec418b30a5b5c05c0c46c4111b365c92/docs/demo.md) mode.

Please how do I set IncludeDemo to true?

is it  
‘’’  
{ includeDemo=true}

‘’’

?

Thanks.
