How the Line4 Check report words itShowHide
Word for word as the report shows it when the rule fails.
C_22.00: TOTAL POSITIONS, Total risk exposure amount = C_02.00.A: Foreign Exchange, TREA
What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the templates below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02The two values must be the same. Find which of the two is right, and correct the other one.
- 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 22.00 and C 02.00 as reported.
- 05This is a blocking check. A filing that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.

A worked example
The first of its checks, with simple numbers.
Foreign exchange, TREA must then be 1,200.
A file that reports 1,200 passes. One that reports 1,300 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
