In the payment file group header, the initiating party details will be provided. As per the bank, there should be 2 other ID tags (i.e., Initiating party tags) in the payment file group header.

In the first tag, it’s picking the Initiating party <Id>xxxxxxx</Id> and SchemeNm <Cd>CUST</Cd>, which we are able to generate in the file.

When it comes to the second tag, the only possible option I could see in the ISO20022 Format specific Info per Institue is by providing the details in the ‘Debtor identification info’ and by enabling the option ‘Repeat in Initiating party identification level’ but the Debtor identification details are different from the initiating part details in our case.

So how can we achieve the second other ID tag (<Id>REMITTANCE</Id> <SchmeNm  <Cd>BANK</Cd>) in the payment file group header?

Hi ​@SWMABHINESH 

I have not seen a bank requesting all three IDs (two Initiating Party IDs and the Debtor ID) at the same time. In your case as well, some of these tags may be optional. Please confirm this with the bank.

If it turns out to be mandatory to include all three IDs, a minor change will be required at the transformer level to achieve this.

Hi ​@Kulana Coomasaru , 

Thanks for the info. But the payment file is getting failed in the bank validation, and they confirmed that the payment group header should have these two tags (CUST, BANK). The debtor tag is also a mandate tag and it’s failing if I try to fix the group header. 

In such case, what sort of change will it be? Is any customization required?
