The integer part of Amount must contain at least one digit. A decimal comma is mandatory and is included in the maximum length. The number of digits following the comma must not exceed the maximum number allowed for the specified currency (Error code(s): C03,T40,T43).

Amount must not contain more than six digits following the decimal comma (Error code(s): C89).

Sign must not be used when Amount is equal to '0' (Error code(s): T14).

USAGE RULES

If Amount is positive (Sign is not present), the amount is to be paid by party A; if Amount is negative (Sign is present), the amount is to be received by party A.

For a rollover with no change in principal, Amount is zero and Currency is the currency of the loan/deposit.

For a rollover, when interest is settled separately or compounded, it is not indicated in the rollover confirmation.

For a maturity confirmation, if both the principal and the interest are paid to the same financial institution (sequences E and F are not present) field 32a (Currency and Principal Amount) contains the sum of the principal and the interest to be settled.

If interest is paid to another financial institution (sequence E or F is present), field 32a (Currency and Principal Amount) contains only the principal to be repaid.

When Unit 'OTH' is used, the unit of the commodity must be defined in field 72.
