Examples for HAC (EBICS Customer Acknowledgement)

Here are some examples for the illustration of the XML-based customer acknowlegement (administrative order type HAC). Please note that the examples already base on EBICS version V 3.0 (published on June 20th 2018)

Example for the use of the element group <Parameter>

For the element group <Parameter> which is optionally usable in BTF up- and download requests there is no general EBICS usage rule. In order to use this structure there must be a specific (e.g. bilateral) agreement. Otherwise requests which contain this element group are going to be rejected.
A typical case of usage (agreement for France) is using <Parameter> for a "test mode".
As illustration here is an excerpt of a SEPA credit transfer order transmitted only for test cases in France.

<OrderDetails>
<AdminOrderType>BTU</AdminOrderType>
<BTUOrderParams>
<Service>
<ServiceName>sct</ServiceName>
<MsgName>pain.001</MsgName>
</Service>
<Parameter>
<Name>TEST</Name>
<Value Type="string">TRUE</Value>
</Parameter>
</BTUOrderParams/>
</OrderDetails>
