Ripple FIDS not present in UPDATE_RESP message

We currently implement an OMM message consumer with which we subscribe to several RICS some of which contain ripple down fields (eg- BID_1, BID_2). When we receive a REFRESH_RESP message we get the full list of fields ie BID, BID_1, BID_2....However when the RIC updates (once a day) only the BID is present in the UPDATE_RESP message. Does anyone know how to get all the ripple down fields without having to do an image request?

    as per RFA .NET Developers Guide

    6.1.7.2 Rippling

    The FieldList also supports rippling. Rippling is a property of a FieldEntry that replaces the value with a newly received value and propagates the former value to an alternate FieldEntry. Rippling reduces bandwidth consumption since the Provider need not again distribute former values. Rather, the Consumer propagates the former value to the alternate FieldEntry as identified through a dictionary. It is a responsibility of the Consumer to ripple the FieldEntrys. RFA does not ripple any FieldEntrys on behalf of the application.

    Though some FieldEntrys have the rippling property, specific IndicationMaskFlag.DoNotRipple values inhibit rippling.
