Holiday Check

For transactions received from channels or bulk file, if the payment value date falls on a local branch holiday, then based on network preferences the value date is moved forward to nearest working date. A message is displayed on transaction booking to indicate the value date change. Initial value date will be stored as instruction date internally.

If transaction value date is a future date, then transaction processing follows future dated transaction specific process flow.

For a current dated transaction, processing is done during transaction authorization in the following order:
  • Sanction Check
  • Charge processing, if applicable
  • Exchange Rate pickup
  • External Credit Approval/External Account Check
  • Debit /Credit entry hand off

Currency Holiday check is applied on both debit and credit account currency.

However, currency holiday is not applied on following cases:
  • External Exchange Rate is not opted at Network.
  • External Exchange Rate is opted at Network, but, transfer amount is less than the Small FX Limit and FX Reference no is not specified in the transaction.
