The rule in plain words
For breakdown by location of PSPs: the absolute value of number of credit transfers cannot be less than the absolute value of instant credit transfers.
EBA checks it for ten rows, from total (0010) to consumers (0100). That makes ten checks. A failure names the one that failed.
How the Line4 Check report words itShowHide
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.
the absolute value of National, Number of credit transfers >= the absolute value of National, of which: instant credit transfers
What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Compare the values in your file. If the first is smaller than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
- 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark S 01.01 as reported.
- 05This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.

EBA's formula, as written out for the first of its checks. Cells are written as {template, row, column, sheet}.
abs({S_01.01,r0050,c0010,}) >= abs({S_01.01,r0050,c0020,})The next five:
