Optional in mandatory sequence A
This field specifies additional information for the Receiver.
One of the following codes, or bilaterally agreed codes, may be used in Code:
it must appear in the first six characters of the first line, and in no other place, followed by a date expressed as YYYYMMDD and the end of line separator (that is :72:/VALD/YYYYMMDDCrLf
) (Error code(s): C58).
the second line must be present and contain the code SETC, followed by a valid ISO 4217 currency code and the end of line separator (that is /SETC/currencyCrLf
) (Error code(s): C59).
Conversely, if the first six characters of the second line are /SETC/, then the first six characters of the first line must be /VALD/ (Error code(s): C59).
The code /SETC/ is not allowed in any other place than the first six characters of the second line (Error code(s): C59).
Code must not be UTI, PUTI, USI or PUSI (Error code(s): T49).
Each code used must be put between slashes and appear at the beginning of a line.
All alphabetic characters in a code must be in upper case.
Additional explanatory information, which may be continued on the next lines, is preceded by a double slash '//'. Narrative text that is not qualified by a code must start with a double slash '//' on a new line, and should preferably be the last information in this field.
Optionally the settlement rate source for cross currency NDO can be confirmed in field 14S Settlement Rate Source in sequence A.
The settlement rate source is only to be used:
in conjunction with a bilaterally agreed master confirmation agreement and
where the transaction is a cross currency NDO, that is, where /SETC/ is not followed by USD.
Field 72 must not be used for information for which another field is intended.
The use of this field with unstructured text may require manual intervention and thus cause delay in automated systems.
