If a file uploaded, is a payments file, and has a status, ‘Completed’, does that mean all payments are processed?
No, a file may be in the completed status, but it is possible that not all payments in the file have been processed, due to failure of validations in the host system. All such instances will be recorded in the response file, which the user can view, and download.
If a payment file is in the approved status, does it mean that all the records are successfully processed?
No, the file still has to successfully pass validations in the host system, before records are processed.
If a working window is set for the File Upload transaction - how will processing be impacted outside of the working window?
Outside of the transaction working window set for file uploads, processing will depend on whether the file has a Record Level approval or a File Type approval.
Files with a File Type approval – will be rejected, outside of the transaction working window
Files with Record Type approval – if some records are processed within the working window, will be completed – if processing of some records, falls outside of the working window – these will be rejected.
What is the impact of limits on processing of File Upload transactions?
File uploads transaction, will utilize limits depending on if the transfer is an internal, domestic, or international funds transfer.
Further, for domestic funds transfer – limits are defined for each network – NEFT, RTGS and IMPS. Limits will be checked at the pre-processing’s stage for file uploads.
Does this functionality solely cater to bulk payment transactions?
No, File uploads is used for bulk payment transactions and to add payees. Internal, domestic or international payees can be added through the file upload functionality.
After a file is successfully uploaded, is the user provided notifications on its status?
Yes, Users mapped to the FI – initiators and approvers of the file, are provided with alerts / notification, as file progresses from the Uploaded stage to Approved to Processing in Progress to the Completed stage. Alternately, users can log in to view the status of the file.
