Hello All,

I have an issue with a CAMT53 bankfile. It give me the error Shortname not found for institute ABNAMRO.

First  It could not be processed due to the fact the it had a IBAN Bankaccount in the file and not a nine nummeric bank account.

So like shown below

<Acct>
                <Id>
                    <IBAN>NLXXABNAXXXXXXXXXX</IBAN>
                </Id>
                <Ccy>EUR</Ccy>
                <Svcr>
                    <FinInstnId>
                        <BIC>ABNANL2A</BIC>
                    </FinInstnId>
                </Svcr>
            </Acct>

Instate of 

<Acct>
                <Id>
                    <Othr>
                        <Id>XXXXXXXX</Id>
                    </Othr>
                </Id>
                <Ccy>EUR</Ccy>
                <Svcr>
                    <FinInstnId>
                        <BIC>ABNANL2A</BIC>
                    </FinInstnId>
                </Svcr>
            </Acct>

 

Solved the first part by adding the IBAN to te company identifier at the external payments parameters in financials → cash book. → external interface.
So far so good

But now i give the error Shortname not found for institute ABNAMRO.

What setting do I miss? 

Kind regards,

Raymond Groener

Hi Raymond,

As you probably know this incoming XML file is loaded via IFS connect. When ISO20022 based bank statement file (CAMT.053 or CAMT.054) is copied to application server folder, there should be a way to identify the company which the file should be loaded. In this case the system expect that bank account number is defined in Company Identifier field (external payment parameters). It is not mandatory to use IBAN number. It can be a domestic account or IBAN.

 In addition to the above you have to make sure that you have defined same IBAN number or domestic account number in cash account window. Otherwise, you will get an error Shortname not found for institute XXX.

Let me know if you need more help.

Best Regards

Hi Eranda,

Thank you for your response.

At the cash account window i've configured 

The IBAN number as bank account, the domestic account number as a reference number and also the the BIC / Swift code.

Can that be the problem?

Hi Raymond,

The account number you have specified in the company identifiers field should be available in the cash account window as well. Don't use both IBAN and domestic account number. Use the cash account number specified in the file for both locations.
