Total cannot be less than initiated electronically via online banking plus initiated electronically via mobile payment solutions plus initiated in a paper-based form (S 01.01, EBA rule v89182_m)

A warning in the sEPA instant payments return (SEPA IPR), on template S 01.01, s 01.01 - number and value of credit transfers and instant credit transfers (national currency).

The rule in plain words

Total cannot be less than initiated electronically via online banking plus initiated electronically via mobile payment solutions plus initiated in a paper-based form.

EBA checks it for four columns: number of credit transfers, instant credit transfers (0020), value of credit transfers and instant credit transfers (0040). That makes four checks. A failure names the one that failed.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

The first of its checks, word for word as the report shows it when it fails. The others read the same, with their own column, row or sheet.

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Work out both sides from your file, as the rule in plain words sets out, and compare them.
  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 S 01.01 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.

Show the rule as writtenShow

EBA's formula, as written out for the first of its checks. Cells are written as {template, row, column, sheet}.

{S_01.01,r0010,c0040,} >= ({S_01.01,r0020,c0040,} + {S_01.01,r0030,c0040,} + {S_01.01,r0040,c0040,})

The next three:

{S_01.01,r0010,c0030,} >= ({S_01.01,r0020,c0030,} + {S_01.01,r0030,c0030,} + {S_01.01,r0040,c0030,}){S_01.01,r0010,c0020,} >= ({S_01.01,r0020,c0020,} + {S_01.01,r0030,c0020,} + {S_01.01,r0040,c0020,}){S_01.01,r0010,c0010,} >= ({S_01.01,r0020,c0010,} + {S_01.01,r0030,c0010,} + {S_01.01,r0040,c0010,})
