MT545 Scope
This message is sent by an account servicer (account servicing institution) to an account owner or its designated agent. The account servicer may be a local agent (sub-custodian) acting on behalf of their global custodian customer, or a custodian acting on behalf of an investment management institution or a broker/dealer.
This message is used to:
confirm the receipt of financial instruments against payment, physically or by book-entry, from a specified party (the function of the message is NEWM)
cancel a confirmation of a receipt against payment previously sent by the account servicer (the function of the message is CANC)
reverse a confirmation of a receipt against payment previously sent by the account servicer (the function of the message is RVSL)
The message is also used to pre-confirm settlement or to confirm a partial settlement of a receipt of financial instruments against payment.

C2 It is mandatory to specify a Settled Amount: one occurrence of subsequence E3 Amount must contain field :19A::ESTT.
C3 If an Exchange Rate (field :92B::EXCH) is present, the corresponding Resulting Amount (field :19A::RESU) must be present in the same subsequence. If the Exchange Rate is not present then the Resulting Amount is not allowed. This check applies to subsequence E3.

C5 If field :22F::DBNM is NOT present in sequence E, then it is mandatory to specify a delivering agent and a place of settlement: one occurrence of subsequence E1 Settlement Parties must contain party field :95a::DEAG and another one must contain party field :95a::PSET.
C6 If a qualifier from the list Deliverers is present in a subsequence E1, in a field :95a::4!c, then all the remaining qualifiers following this qualifier in the list Deliverers (see below) must be present.
In other words, in sequence E, the following scenarios must be validated:
If :95a::DEI2 is present in subsequence E1, then :95a::DEI1 must be present in another subsequence E1.
If :95a::DEI1 is present in subsequence E1, then :95a::DECU must be present in another subsequence E1.
If :95a::DECU is present in subsequence E1, then :95a::SELL must be present in another subsequence E1.
If a qualifier from the list Receivers is present in a subsequence E1, in a field :95a::4!c, then all the remaining qualifiers following this qualifier in the list Receivers (see below) must be present.
In other words, in sequence E, the following scenarios must be validated:
If :95a::REI2 is present in subsequence E1, then :95a::REI1 must be present in another subsequence E1.
If :95a::REI1 is present in subsequence E1, then :95a::RECU must be present in another subsequence E1.
If :95a::RECU is present in subsequence E1, then :95a::BUYR must be present in another subsequence E1.

C7 If the message is a cancellation or a reversal, that is, Function of the Message (field 23G) is CANC or RVSL, then field :20C::PREV must be present in one and only one occurrence of subsequence A1; consequently, in all other occurrences of A1, field :20C::PREV is not allowed.

Per Network Validated Rules C1 (Error Code E87) and C2 (Error Code E92), field :19A::ESTT must be present in one occurrence of subsequence E3 and must not be used in any other occurrence of subsequence E3.
C12 In sequence F, if field :95a::EXCH Stock Exchange or :95a::TRRE Trade Regulator is present, then field :97a:: is not allowed in the same sequence.

In sequence C, field :94a::SAFE must not be present more than twice. When repeated, one and only one occurrence must be with format option L (:94L::SAFE).
In each occurrence of subsequence E1, field :95a::ALTE must not be present more than twice. When repeated, one and only one occurrence must be with format option L (:95L::ALTE).
In each occurrence of subsequence E2, field :95a::ALTE must not be present more than twice. When repeated, one and only one occurrence must be with format option L (:95L::ALTE).
In each occurrence of sequence F, field :95a::ALTE must not be present more than twice. When repeated, one and only one occurrence must be with format option L (:95L::ALTE).
C15 In each occurrence of sequence F, if field :95a::ALTE is present with format option L, then field :95a::MEOR and field :95a::MERE must not be present in the same occurrence of the sequence.
MT545 Usage Rules
The message may also be used to:
re-send a message (be it a confirmation, cancellation or reversal of a confirmation) sent by the account servicer to the account owner (the sub-function of the message is DUPL)
provide a third party with a copy of a message (be it a confirmation, cancellation or reversal of a confirmation) being sent by the account servicer for information (the sub-function of the message is COPY)
re-send a third party a copy of a message (be it a confirmation, cancellation or reversal of a confirmation) being sent by the account servicer for information (the sub-function of the message is CODU)
When the message is used as a cancellation, the linkage sequence must contain the reference of the original confirmation.
