AEG UETR Application

Standards MT Release 2018 introduced an important mandatory change to the core payment messages. A Unique End-to-end Transaction Reference (UETR) in field 121 of block 3 is mandatory for the message types MT 103, MT 103 REMIT, MT 103 STP, MT 202, MT 202 COV, MT 205 and MT 205 COV.

In order to provide the bank with a solution to enrich the messages with UETR between the BO application and the SAA, AEG-UETR application is proposed.

AEG-UETR application is designated to assist the bank on the below points:

• Generation of UETR for MT1xx and MT2xx
• Passing the field 121 to the core banking or remove it for legacy compatibility
• Appending the saved UETR from the incoming message and passing it to the outgoing message based on the related reference.

There are two options of which the application works. It can work as a webservice module or it can work as batch mode module based on the BO capability.
