General part of a transaction
The “Transactions” section of transaction‑based report types contains:
- a general section
- a section defining From (Source of funds)
- a section defining To (Destination of funds)
All three sections must be completed for a transaction to be valid.
Note: You may enter as many transactions as necessary.
Transaction Reference* – transactionnumber
Each transaction must have a unique number. This number can be generated by the reporting entity’s IT system or by clicking the icon
If the reporting entity chooses to generate the number through its own system (XML reports), it must ensure that the number is unique. To avoid interference with other reporting entities, the chosen unique number should be preceded by the reporter’s SWIFT code.
Example: CRFLLULL-unique number, such as CRFLLULL‑123456
Internal Reference Number – internal_reference_number
This number may be freely chosen by the reporting entity.
Transaction status* – transmode_code
The form provides the following statuses:
- Announced
The transaction has not yet been executed but has been announced.
- Cancelled by the client
The transaction was executed, but the client requests its cancellation.
Example: the client realizes they were the victim of fraud.
- Authorized
Applies to credit card transactions. A certain amount is blocked against the available credit limit, but the card is not debited.
Example: deposit for a car rental or hotel stay.
- Executed
The transaction has been executed.
