12.3 Schedule Transfer

This topic describes the systematic instruction to maintain scheduled transfer. A customer can issue standing instructions to the bank, to perform a certain transaction for a particular period without any follow-up or intervention by either party.

For example, a customer can instruct the bank to debit a CASA account by a fixed amount at a predefined frequency and transfer the funds to another account. When the customer requests a scheduled transfer to CASA, the operation officer can capture the instruction details on this screen.
