For interest income: these five added up cannot be more than current period:

  • Subsidiaries and other entities of the same group

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

Word for word as the report shows it when the rule fails.

F_31.02: Interest Income, Associates and joint ventures + F_31.02: Interest Income, Parent and parent entities with joint control or significant influence + F_31.02: Interest Income, Key management of the instruction or its parent + F_31.02: Interest Income, Subsidiaries and other entities of the same group + F_31.02: Interest Income, Other related parties <= F_02.00: Interest income

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the templates below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Compare the values in your file. If the first is bigger than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
  3. 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark F 02.00 and F 31.02 as reported.
  5. 05This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Illustrative values
Interest income, associates and joint ventures1,200
Interest income, parent and parent entities with joint control or significant influence800
Interest income, key management of the instruction or its parent450
Interest income, subsidiaries and other entities of the same group300
Interest income, other related parties150
Together2,900
What the rule then expects

Interest income, current period must then be at least 2,900.

2,900Passes
2,800Fails

A file that reports 2,900 passes. One that reports 2,800 fails, by 100.

The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
