Source of Information for Tags of CGI Pain.001 File

This blog aims to clarify the different parts of the Pain.001 file and explain what is the source of each tag. Pain.001 is a payments initiation message by ISO 20022 that depicts a Credit Transfer message in XML format.

Payment initiation message is composed of three parts: Group Header, Payment
Information and Credit Transfer Transaction Information.

GrpHdr (Group Header)

Group Header is presented only once. It contains common identifying elements to
the entire message.

    <GrpHdr>
      <MsgId>1025348326</MsgId>
      <CreDtTm>2022-01-08T00:58:07</CreDtTm>
      <NbOfTxs>1</NbOfTxs>
      <CtrlSum>1000.00</CtrlSum>
      <InitgPty>
    </GrpHdr>

<MsgId>	Message Identification (Manage Payment Media – Reference Number)
<CreDtTm>	Creation Date Time (when was the file created)
<NbOfTxs>	Total number of transactions in the message
<CtrlSum>	Total number of individual amounts in the message
<InitgPty>	see below

InitgPty

      <InitgPty>
        <Nm>TEST OF PAYMENT FORMAT AT</Nm>
        <Id>
          <OrgId>

              <Issr>CGI_Issuer</Issr>
            </Othr>
          </OrgId>
        </Id>
      </InitgPty>

Initiating party contains the same information as the Debtor. If there is a need, for example, to have different IDs for a debtor, it can be done in the customer implementation.

<Nm>	Name of company code is taken from the settings of company code or from the payment method
<Id>	Identification is taken from the house bank field ‘Customer Number’ or from the company code parameter ‘CGIID’
<Issr>	Issuer is taken from the company code parameter ‘CGIIR’

PmtInf (Payment Information)

Payment Information contains information related to the debit side of the transaction. It can be repetitive (it can occur 1 to n times in the file depending on the number of payments).

    <PmtInf>
      <PmtInfId>1025348427</PmtInfId>
      <PmtMtd>TRF</PmtMtd>
