transactionIdentifiersobject(TransactionIdentifiers)required

Holds a series of identifiers to identify the transaction or an individual message that is part of a transaction.

transactionIdentifiers.​endToEndIdentificationstring<= 35 charactersrequired

Unique identification, as assigned by the initiating party, to unambiguously identify the transaction. This identification is passed on, unchanged, throughout the entire end-to-end chain. Note: this is distinct from the UETR.

transactionIdentifiers.​instructionIdentificationstring<= 35 characters

Unique identification, as assigned by an instructing party for an instructed party, to unambiguously identify the instruction. The instruction identification is a point to point reference that can be used between the instructing party and the instructed party to refer to the individual instruction. It can be included in several messages related to the instruction.

transactionIdentifiers.​transactionIdentificationstring<= 35 characters

Unique identification, as assigned by the first instructing agent, to unambiguously identify the transaction that is passed on, unchanged, throughout the entire interbank chain. Usage: The transaction identification can be used for reconciliation, tracking or to link tasks relating to the transaction on the interbank level. Usage: The instructing agent has to make sure that the transaction identification is unique for a pre-agreed period.

transactionIdentifiers.​uetrstring(UUID)required

Universally unique identifier to provide an end-to-end reference of a payment transaction. This identifier remains the same for all messages related to the same transaction.
