NETWORK VALIDATED RULES

Narrative for option F of this field may contain any character defined in the 'z' SWIFT character set. This character set contains the characters from both the SWIFT 'x' and 'y' character sets plus the characters '@', '_' and '#'. The following contains a complete list of all characters permitted in the 'z' character set.

abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

0123456789

. , - ( ) / + ' = : ? @ _ # Cr Lf Space { ! " % & * ; < >

USAGE RULES

Extreme caution must be exercised when using this field with format option F because all characters can be in a continuous string, that is, there are 'no number of characters per line' limitations. The characters (Cr) and (Lf) may stand alone, that is, empty lines are allowed.

Moreover, usage of the character strings, (CrLf:) or (CrLf-) in this data element will signal the premature 'start of the next field' or signal the 'end of message text' respectively.

If Format Option F is used, the concerned qualifier then becomes non-repetitive.

Unless bilaterally agreed, narrative field 70a must not contain information that can be provided in a structured field.
