The ISO 20022 standard for the financial sector – what it's all about and how we can support you
ISO 20022 provides you with a global standard for all message formats in the financial sector, which is constantly being further developed and enables a rich and structured use of data. In Germany, the message types of the ISO 20022 standard are used for SEPA payments and foreign payments as well as for electronic sales information which customers can send or retrieve via EBICS.
With Annex 3 "Specification of data formats" of the DFÜ-Agreement, the German Banking Industry Committee (GBIC) provides a collection of standardized and permissible ISO 20022 formats. These publications are the basis for the implementation in payment transaction applications, for example. The GBIC also publishes a format lifecycle, which shows until when the respective versions of the formats will be supported.
The Format Wizard supports you with the onboarding of your payment transactions at DZ BANK and the migration to new format versions by independently comparing test files from your systems against the valid schemas and usage rules, correcting them directly or download them with comments. In addition there is also the option of simulating response messages or simply and easily adapt the sample files provided in order to test the processing of these messages in your own systems.
Format Wizard now supports the validation of international payment orders based on the ISO 20022 format “pain.001.001.09” (CGI-AZV).
It is also possible to validate payment requests (Request-to-Pay) and to simulate the associated status messages with individually definable reason codes.
To use the Format Wizard, a registration is required. Choose the login link below and select "New user? Register".
After entering the required login data, you will be activated promptly and informed by e-mail.
The language (German, English) can be preset in the user profile (accessible top right) and the deletion of the test files can be set after definable periods of time (default: older than 30 days).
The Format Wizard supports you in technically validating test messages before they are actually sent to DZ BANK and, if necessary, simulating derived messages based on them and testing whether they can be processed in your own systems.
