NETWORK VALIDATED RULES

The integer part of Amount must contain at least one digit. A decimal comma is mandatory and is included in the maximum length. The number of digits following the comma must not exceed the maximum allowed for the specified currency.

Currency Code must be a valid ISO 4217 currency code.

If Amount is zero, Sign must not be present.

USAGE RULES

Sign is used when the Amount is credited while the practice or the transaction type would normally imply that the Amount should be debited (or vice versa).

EXAMPLE

When a trade is in one currency, for example in COP, and settlement in another currency, for example in USD, if there is a need to provide the countervalue amount in COP of the settlement amount in USD, RESU will be used as follows:

:16R:AMT

:19A::DEAL//COP1000, (deal amount)

:16S:AMT

:16R:AMT

:19A::SETT//USD500,45 (settlement amount in USD)

:19A::RESU//COP1002,45 (countervalue of the settlement amount in COP)

:92B::EXCH//USD/COP/2.01 (1,00 USD = 2.01 COP)

:16S:AMT
