0. INTRODUCTION

This specification provides the definition of the Balance of payment information from customer message (BOPINF) to be used in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in administration, commerce and transport.


1. SCOPE


1.1. Functional Definition

Message sent by a payee to its bank on receipt of one specified amount as a settlement of a transaction with a non-resident. The Balance of Payment (BOP) compiler has to be informed of the transaction via the payee's bank.


1.2. Field of Application

The Balance of payment information from customer message may be used for both national and international applications. It is based on universal practice related to administration, commerce and transport, and is not dependent on the type of business or industry.


1.3. Principles

In some countries the receipt of an external payment has to be reported to the BOP compiler via the customer's resident bank.

It is assumed that the payee is informed about the receipt by a CREADV message. As far as this message contains relevant BOP data (for instance counterparties and the total amount) the payee - by referring in the BOPINF message to the CREADV message - refrain from reporting this data to its bank.

For reporting to the BOP compiler the payee's bank has to combine the CREADV message and the related BOPINF message in order to fill in the BOPCUS message.

The main part of the BOPINF message relates to additional BOP information related to corresponding transactions and unknown by the payee's bank.

The message contains a main loop introduced by a LIN segment which is used to accommodate the reporting of a large number of transactions without repeating identical information.

Each loop contains the information related to one transaction for which a CREADV has been received and for which a BOP information has been requested.

4.1. Data Segment Clarification

This section should be read in conjunction with the Segment Table which indicates mandatory, conditional and repeating requirements.

0010 UNH, Message header

A service segment starting and uniquely identifying a message. The message type code for the Balance of payment information from customer message is BOPINF.

Note: Balance of payment information from customer messages conforming to this document must contain the following data in segment UNH, composite S009:

Data element0065BOPINF
0052D
005498A
0051UN

0020 BGM, Beginning of message

A segment to indicate the type and function of the message and to transmit its identifying number.

0030 DTM, Date/time/period

A segment to specify the date and, when required, the time at which the message has been created as well as specification of other process dates.

0040 Segment Group 1: RFF-DTM

A group of segments to give auxiliary references and the relevant dates for the message itself.

0050 RFF, Reference

A segment to give another reference for the message.

0060 DTM, Date/time/period

A segment to give the period reported in the message (for example day/month/year).

0070 Segment Group 2: NAD-CTA-COM

A group of segments to give the identification of the reporting agent (generally the enterprise) or, possibly with a second occurrence, the identification of the enterprise on behalf of which the declaration is made.

0080 NAD, Name and address

A segment to identify the resident party.

0110 Segment Group 3: LIN-SG4-SG5

A group of segments to accommodate the details corresponding with one credit advice received during the relevant period.

0120 LIN, Line item

A segment identifying the report line item by a current line number.

0140 RFF, Reference

A segment to give the serial number of the received CREADV message.

0150 DTM, Date/time/period

A segment to give the day, month & year of the CREADV message.

0160 Segment Group 5: RCS-FTX-MOA-LOC
