7.1.2 Perform Operations on an Outgoing Message

This topic provides systematic instructions to perform operations on an outgoing message.

  1. The operations that you can perform on an outgoing message are determined by the rights that you are assigned with, at Security Management System (SMS) level. If a function in the Outgoing Browser is disabled, then the function is not allowed for the record.
  2. Check the box against the message(s) for which you need to perform an operation and then click the corresponding operation. The action performed will require authorization, if maintained at the Messaging Branch Preferences level.
  3. The system allows only ‘Print’, ‘View’ and ‘Detail’ actions for messages generated by External Payment system.
  4. The following operations can be performed on the outgoing messages:

    Hold
    Click if you need to temporarily stop generating an outgoing message. Authorizing Supervisor can view details and then release the messages or change their status to Carry Forward, which in turn can be released on further authorization.

    Note:

    Messages with Hold status must either be carried forward or released, before you execute the EOD processes at the branch; else the system displays an error message. However, if the message is cancelled, then the system will not display error message, though the status is ‘Hold’.
