6.2.13 Return Suppression

Return Suppression is process of preventing the generation or sending of return messages for specific transactions, even if those transactions fail or encounter an issue during processing.

On selecting Suppress for the Return Type field, the system does not generate the following messages:
  • Outgoing Payment Return (pacs.004) and Outgoing Payment Status Report (pacs.002) messages.
  • Confirmation message (that is, GPI or Universal) against the Original Transaction.
  • No accounting entries get posted for:
    • The Return Transaction
    • The Original Transaction level
  • The transaction status on the return and parent transactions are displayed as below:
