Repeat Media Output

Explanation 

This activity is used for creating a new file if the originally created payment file cannot be transferred to the payment institute. The reason can be that a file error occurred with the original output file, or that items have been cancelled/ removed from the original order, or that payment addresses or payment institute data must be changed.

It is possible to repeat media output with current information or with original information. If repeat media output is based on current data, the payment address data of the payee will be fetched from the payment institute, cash account and electronic payment address. If the repeat media output is based on original data; the payment institute, cash account and electronic payment address related data will be fetched from payment file trace information for the payment file and, the first output sequence number in will be used as the source to create the file. In both instances cancelled or removed items will not be included in the new file. If format specific info per institute is included in a file this information is always fetched from the current information (even if repeat media output is based on the original data).

It is also possible to control creation of payment advice during repeat media output process.

Prerequisites

System Effects

As a result of this activity, a new file with the content of the payment order is created. The output path for the output type file is fetched from the Payment Methods per Payment Institute page and the output path for output type XML is fetched from the Setup IFS Connect.

If repeat media output is based on current data and payment method is selected to generate trace information, payment file trace information with a new output sequence number will be generated in the Payment File Trace Information page.
