If I hold a position in a stock that can be elected to be redeemed for a fixed amount of cash, how can I simulate that transaction in QC to get the right accounting? Can I create a fake sale transaction and specify the execution price? Or could I sell it at market and book some sort of accounting adjustment for the difference from the actual execution price and the redemption amount? Any other idea?
Thanks.

Hi David
We can manipulate the filling of the trade by a custom filling model. Please check this doc for example. It is possible to add cash after filled order within it.
Could you please provide a concrete example to elaborate on what is the behavior of that "redemption" would look like for further assistance?
