Post From: Orders placed on IB TWS are not showing on SC

Hello again. After some searching it appears that this has to do with the Master API CLient ID setting in TWS API settings (see attached)
If I leave it empty (default value) I do not see any orders in Sierra that originated from my Excel file (ie a different API client). If I enter 0 (I'm using 0 in instance ID) I can finally see the orders BUT I cannot modify them. If I try to modify, I get a pending modify message and then the orders vanish from SC, while they are not affected at all in TWS.

I believe this has to do with this option (Master API Client ID) not being available in Sierra. Can you please verify this?

*Edit: If I enter another non-zero value in the setting above, again I do not see any orders. So it must be related.
