3.3.18 Authorization Limit Validations

Validates the transaction amount against defined authorization limits and routes it to the appropriate authorization queue.

Authorization Limit currency and Limit 1 amount values at the Source Network Preferences Detailed (PMDSORNW) are used to validate authorization limit for the given Host Code, Source Code, Network Code, and Transaction Type set as Outgoing.

Authorization Limit 2 amount value at the Source Network Preferences Detailed (PMDSORNW) is used for the Host Code, Source Code, Network Code, and Transaction Type set as Outgoing.

Two levels of authorization limits can be maintained in the Source Network Preferences Detailed (PMDSORNW) (optional). If the transfer amount is greater than authorization limit 1, the transaction is moved to Authorization Limit 1 Queue.

On approval from Authorization Limit 1 Queue, if the transfer amount is greater than authorization limit 2, the transaction is moved to Authorization Limit 2 Queue. If the transfer amount is less than authorization limit 2, the transaction proceeds to next processing step.

If the Authorization Limit check is done on booking date, it is not repeated on value date processing.
