The transaction steps are detailed below:
The transaction can be sent for sanction screening to an external system. The external system status can be linked to one of the following system status:
If sanction is approved, the transaction is resumed with the further processing. In case of seizure, if seizure accounting is applicable, then customer account is debited and the Seizure GL is credited. If the status is rejected, interim or timed out, the transaction is moved to sanction check queue.
Price code is linked in Network Currency preferences. Internal charge/tax values are picked up from Price value maintenance PMDVLMNT for the price code.
Note
Price fetch from External systems is not supported for SCT Instant payments.
The debit account can be in any currency. It is not mandatory to have debit account currency as Euro. The system fetches the internal exchange rate maintained if the transfer amount is within the mall FX limit maintained. If the transfer amount is more than the FX limit maintained and if External exchange rate fetch is applicable, the transaction details are sent to the external FX system for rate fetch. Any failure in rate fetch moves the transaction to exchange rate related Exception queues.
The debit details are sent to the DDA system for account validation and balance check. The external system status can be linked to one of the following system status:
If balance check is approved, the transaction is resumed with the further processing. If the status is rejected, interim or timed out, the transaction is moved to Credit Approval queue.
Note
It is assumed that DDA system will create an amount block on the debit account for the debit amount on a successful ECA check.
Accounting preference can be set at Network preferences for the outgoing transactions. If he preference selected is ‘Before Messaging’ accounting entries will be handed off to Accounting system before Messaging. On payment reject, the reversal entries will be posted.
If the preference is for posting the accounting ‘On Confirmation from CI’, the accounting handoff will be deferred till positive confirmation is received from CSM.
