Introduction:
SFMS: Message Usage Scenarios:
The following 5 SFMS Message usage scenarios can be envisaged:
In this write up, only the first scenario has been addressed. The remaining four scenarios would
be discussed later. As such, messages that can be used for relaying inter bank transactions only,
such as IFN 3 category messages, which deal with inter bank forex and money market trade
confirmations have not been discussed here. Individual messages in other categories, which are
purely inter bank in nature, for e.g., IFN 200 (Request sent to a correspondent requesting for
transfer of funds between two accounts owned by the sender), IFN 950 (Account statements sent
by correspondent banks to account owners) have also not been discussed.
The various business models involving traditional methods of reconciliation and innovations that
can be introduced by leveraging on facilities provided by SFMS have been discussed in elaborate
detail in section 1 (Customer Funds Transfers). To avoid repetition, only a single business model
has been described in the remaining chapter. Users can decide on any of the business models
suggested in section 1 and apply it to the transactions described in remaining sections.
Dates expressed in IFN messages will have to be in the YYYYMMDD format and amounts will
have to be expressed without use of comma as delimiter between hundreds, thousands, lakhs etc.
However, to ensure clarity, all message formats given in examples express dates in
DDMMYYYY format and comma has been used as delimiter in amount fields.
Where the description of a particular field differs from the standard description given in IFN
message format publications, such descriptions have been printed in capitals. E.g., Actual
description of field 52A field in IFN 900 message is Ordering Institution, but it has been
described here as CONTRAPARTY BRANCH.
All the IFS Codes (IFSC) and many of the branches referred to in the examples are fictitious.
The scenarios, usages, practices and business models related in the following pages are
indicative and not exhaustive. Suggestions for additions, improvements, deletions and
modifications to the message usage descriptions, usage scenarios, business models, examples
etc., and information regarding errors if any would be gratefully accepted and incorporated.

1.2.
IFN 100 message is used for relaying the TT message. SFMS branches use IFN 900 (advice of
Debit) and IFN 910 (advice of Credit) for relaying the Debit and credit reports to the
Reconciliation System. This would necessitate changes at system and policy level in the
Reconciliation mechanism of the Bank. The benefits accruing to the Bank by adopting this
method are:
Debit entries relating to Paid TTs would normally be outstanding for a few minutes only.
Outstanding Credit entries relating to TT transactions would normally represent TTs issued
but not paid. As disposal of such entries are critical from a customer service stand point, it
will now be possible to view and monitor such entries from a central location.
Example:
In the example quoted in section 1.1.1 above, Andhra Bank, Masab Tank sends an IFN 100
message to Andhra Bank, Mumbai Main Branch and reports the transaction by sending an IFN
910 message to the Banks Reconciliation System.
On receipt of a valid and authenticated IFN 100 message, Andhra Bank, Mumbai Main Branch
applies funds to Mr. Naidus account and reports the transaction by sending an IFN 900 message
to the Banks Reconciliation System (IFSC say ANDB0000999).

The date to be furnished in Field 32A is the value date indicated in the original TT
message. Even if Andhra Bank, Mumbai Main Branch were to apply funds on the
next or any subsequent day, the date in field 32A should be the one mentioned in the
IFN 100 to facilitate reconciliation.
This can be done in two ways namely the direct method and the indirect method.
1.2.1.1. Direct Method
IFN 100 messages are sent directly to the paying branch and IFN 910 message is sent to the
Reconciliation System. The paying branch queries the Reconciliation System before applying
funds.

1.2.1.1.2.
The Ordering Branch uses IFN 100 message to relay the Payment Order to the Paying branch
and uses an IFN 910 message to relay the credit advice to the Reconciliation System. The Paying
Branch sends an IFN 195 message to the Reconciliation System requesting authorization to
debit. The Reconciliation System sends an IFN 196 authorizing the debit and treats the
transaction as reconciled without waiting for an IFN 900 from the Paying Branch. The Paying
branch applies funds. In other words, the IFN 195 message requesting authorization to debit also
acts as an IFN 900 (Debit Advice) Message.
Example:
In the example quoted in section 1.1.1 above, Andhra Bank, Masab Tank sends an IFN 100
message to Andhra Bank, Mumbai Main Branch and reports the transaction by sending an IFN
910 message to the Banks Reconciliation System.
On receipt of a valid and authenticated IFN 100 message, Andhra Bank, Mumbai Main Branch
sends an IFN 195 message to the Reconciliation System requesting authorization to debit. The
Reconciliation System sends an IFN 196 authorizing the debit and treats the message as
reconciled. Andhra Bank, Mumbai Main Branch applies funds to Mr. Naidus account.

Indirect Method:
Instead of sending the Payment Order to the Paying Branch, The Ordering Branch sends the IFN
100 message to the Reconciliation System. The Reconciliation System in turn, relays the IFN
100 message to the Paying Branch. The Paying branch applies funds and sends an IFN 900 to the
Reconciliation System. It is to be noted that the IFN 100 message from the Ordering Branch to
the Reconciliation System also acts as an Advice of Credit.
Example:
In the example quoted in section 1.1.1 above, Andhra Bank, Masab Tank sends an IFN 100
message to the Banks Reconciliation System. The Banks Reconciliation System in turn sends
an IFN 100 message to Andhra Bank, Mumbai Main Branch.
On receipt of a valid and authenticated IFN 100 message, Andhra Bank, Mumbai Main Branch
applies funds to Mr. Naidus account and reports the transaction by sending an IFN 900 message

Charges (if any,) at the paying branch are for the remitters account. The instruction is received
after the cut-off time prescribed by the Bank for same day value transfers. Allahabad Bank,
Kolkata Reference Nos. are TT/345/2001, TT/346/2001 and TT/347/2001 respectively.
While reporting multiple TTs to Reconciliation System, the practice in Allahabad Bank is that
both the issuing branch and paying branch quote the Reference No. of the first TT. viz.,
TT/345/2001 in this case.
The information to be provided by Allahabad Bank, Kolkata to Allahabad Bank, Bangalore in
the TT message would be as follows:

The date to be furnished in Field 32A is the value date indicated in the original TT
message. Even if Allahabad Bank, Bangalore Branch were to apply funds on the next
or any subsequent day, the date in field 32A should be the one mentioned in the IFN
100 to facilitate reconciliation.
In case, Allahabad Bank, Bangalore is unable to apply one or more TTs conveyed in the above
message, it should still send the IFN 900 Message for the full amount and vouch reversal credits
to Allahabad Bank, Kolkata separately to avoid reconciliation errors.

Direct Method
IFN 102 messages are sent directly to the paying branch and IFN 910 message is sent to the
Reconciliation System. The paying branch queries the Reconciliation System before applying
funds.
The various possible scenarios under this method have been discussed below:
1.3.3.1.1.
IFN 102 message is used for relaying the TT message. SFMS branches use IFN 910 (advice of
Credit) for relaying the credit reports to the Reconciliation System. The Paying Branch queries
the Reconciliation System before applying funds.
The Ordering Branch uses IFN 102 message to relay the Payment Order to the Paying branch
and uses an IFN 910 message to relay the credit advice to the Reconciliation System. The Paying
Branch sends an IFN 195 message to the Reconciliation System requesting authorization to
debit. The Reconciliation System sends an IFN 196 authorizing the debit. The Paying branch
applies funds and uses an IFN 900 message to relay the debit advice to the Reconciliation
System.
Example:
In the example quoted in section 1.2.1 above, Allahabad Bank, Kolkata sends an IFN 102
message to Allahabad Bank, Bangalore Branch and reports the transaction by sending an IFN
910 Message to the Banks Reconciliation System.
On receipt of a valid and authenticated IFN 102 message, Allahabad Bank, Bangalore Branch
sends an IFN 195 message to the Reconciliation System requesting authorization to debit. The
Reconciliation System sends an IFN 196 authorizing the debit. Allahabad Bank, Bangalore
Branch applies funds to beneficiaries accounts and reports the transaction by sending an IFN
900 message to the Banks Reconciliation System.

1.4.4. Transfer is for credit of multiple beneficiaries who bank with other
branches of the bank. (IFN 100, 101, 102, 900 & 910)
As the beneficiaries bank with other branch(es) of the same bank, after debiting of the ordering
customers account, the branch to which the IFN 101 message is addressed sends one or more
IFN 100 or IFN 102 messages to the branch(es) which maintain the beneficiaries accounts. IFN
910 messages are used for reporting the inter branch credit transactions to the Banks
Reconciliation System. The beneficiaries branches apply funds on receipt of valid IFN 100 or
IFN 102 messages and report the debit transaction(s) to the Banks Reconciliation System using
IFN 900 message(s).

Though in the above example, all the beneficiaries have been shown to be banking with one
branch only, more often than not, beneficiaries would be banking in several branches of the
bank. In such case, several IFN 100 messages (to those branches where only one beneficiary has
an account) and IFN 102 messages (to those branches where more than one beneficiaries have
accounts) will have to be sent to the concerned branches.
47
1.4.5. Transfer is for credit of a single beneficiary who banks with another
banks branch in the same enter as the branch to which the message
is addressed. (IFN 101)
As the beneficiary banks with the branch of another bank, the branch to which the IFN 101
message is addressed uses traditional methods of payment such as pay orders. After debiting the
ordering customers account, the receiving branch sends a pay order for proceeds favouring the
beneficiary and forwards it to the beneficiary. As the funds are settled through local clearing, the
Banks Reconciliation System is not involved in settlement/reconciliation of funds.
Example:
On 10.09.2001, M/s. ABC Ltd request Bank of Maharastra, Pune to instruct their Karad branch
to debit M/s. ABC Ltds account with Bank of Maharastra, Karad and transfer Rs 10,000.00
same day value for credit of M/s GDD Ltd in full settlement of Inv. 89012. ABC Ltds reference

As the IFN 720 and IFN 721 messages would have been sent by Syndicate Bank,
Kashmir Gate to Syndicate Bank, Goraya, the latter would not have sent an IFN
730 message to Syndicate Bank, Mumbai. As such, Syndicate Bank, Mumbai
would have to use NONREF in Field 21.
If the LC is available by Payment, Deferred Payment or Mixed Payment, then IFN 754
message conveys advice of payment.
If the LC is available by Acceptance, then IFN 754 message conveys advice of acceptance.
If the LC is available by Negotiation, then IFN 754 message conveys advice of negotiation.
Example:
On 5.01.2002, the beneficiaries (Transferees) of the LC in the example quoted in section 4.5
above, M/s Satnam Singh Arora & Sons, 25/12, G.T.Road, Goraya submit a bill (their Ref.
OB/2468) for Rs 2,00,000/- under the LC for negotiation to Syndicate Bank, Goraya.
Syndicate Bank, Goraya negotiate the bill and send an IFN 754 advice of negotiation message to
their Mumbai branch.
