Remittance data

Included in the multiple credit advice message is the functionality to provide detailed remittance data. This data is simply transmitted by the ordering customer's bank to the beneficiary’s bank (is not changed by either bank) for ultimate transmission to the beneficiary in the multiple credit advice.

In addition to this facility EANCOM® also includes the Remittance Advice message (REMADV). The method to be used to communicate remittance advice data depends on user requirements.

If the user wishes to transmit the remittance information using the EANCOM® REMADV message a link is established between the credit advice and the REMADV using the RFF segment in segment group 11.
