  "text": "PARAMETERS OF THE TIPS DCAs — TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\nIn addition to the Conditions, the following rules shall apply to the interaction with the TIPS Platform:\n1.\nTechnical requirements for participation in TARGET2-ECB regarding infrastructure, network and formats\n(1) A TIPS DCA holder shall use the services of at least one TIPS network service provider for the exchange of messages.\n(2) A TIPS DCA holder shall specify a TIPS DN to receive messages relevant for the TIPS DCA holder, such as in relation to reports, and floor/ceiling notifications. This may be different from the TIPS DN used for the exchange of instant payments orders.\n(3) Each TIPS DCA holder shall pass a series of tests to prove its technical and operational competence before it may participate in TARGET2-ECB.\n(4) For the submission of TIPS DCA to PM liquidity transfer orders the services of a TIPS network service provider or the ICM shall be used. Liquidity transfer orders shall include, inter alia, the unique account number of up to 34 characters of the sending TIPS DCA holder and the BIC of the receiving PM account.\n(5) For the exchange of information with the TIPS Platform either A2A or U2A modes may be used. The security of the message exchange between the TIPS DCA and the TIPS Platform shall rely on the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) service offered by the TIPS network service provider used. Information on the PKI service is available in the documentation provided by such TIPS network service provider.\n(6) For the exchange of information with the Common Reference Data Management component U2A mode shall be used. The Common Reference Data Management component allows users to configure, create and maintain reference data needed in TIPS service.\n(7) TIPS DCA holders shall comply with the ISO20022 message structure and field specifications. Message structure and field specifications are described in Chapter 3.3.2 of the TIPS UDFS.\n(8) Field contents shall be validated at the level of the TIPS Platform in accordance with the TIPS UDFS requirements.\n2.\nMessage types\nThe following system message types are processed, subject to subscription:\nMessage Type\nMessage Name\nPacs.002\nFIToFIPayment Status Report\nPacs.004\nPaymentReturn\nPacs.008\nFIToFICustomerCreditTransfer\nPacs.028\nFIToFIPaymentStatusRequest\ncamt.003\nGetAccount\ncamt.004\nReturnAccount\ncamt.011\nModifyLimit\ncamt.019\nReturnBusinessDayInformation\ncamt.025\nReceipt\ncamt.029\nResolutionOfInvestigation\ncamt.050\nLiquidityCreditTransfer\ncamt.052\nBankToCustomerAccountReport\ncamt.053\nBankToCustomerStatement\ncamt.054\nBankToCustomerDebitCreditNotification\ncamt.056\nFIToFIPaymentCancellationRequest\nacmt.010\nAccountRequestAcknowledgement\nacmt.011\nAccountRequestRejection\nacmt.015\nAccountExcludedMandateMaintenanceRequest\nreda.016\nPartyStatusAdviceV01\nreda.022\nPartyModificationRequestV01\n3.\nDouble-entry check\nAll payment orders shall pass a double-entry check, the aim of which is to reject payment orders that have been submitted more than once.\n4.\nError codes\nIf an instant payment order or a positive recall answer is rejected for any reason, the TIPS DCA holder shall receive a payment status report [pacs.002], as described in Chapter 4.2 of the TIPS UDFS. If a liquidity transfer order is rejected for any reason, the TIPS DCA holder shall receive a rejection [camt.025], as described in Chapter 1.6 of the TIPS UDFS.\n5.\nSettlement of liquidity transfer orders\nLiquidity transfer orders are not recycled, queued or offset. The different statuses for liquidity transfer orders are described in Chapter 1.4.2 of the TIPS UDFS.\n6.\nUse of the U2A and A2A mode\n(1) The U2A and A2A modes may be used for obtaining information and managing liquidity. The TIPS network service providers' networks shall be the underlying technical communications networks for exchanging information and running control measures. The following modes shall be available for use by TIPS DCA holders:\n(a) Application-to-application mode (A2A)\nIn A2A, information and messages are transferred between the TIPS Platform and the TIPS DCA holder's internal application. The TIPS DCA holder therefore has to ensure that an appropriate application is available for the exchange of XML messages (requests and responses).\n(b) User-to-application mode (U2A)\nU2A permits direct communication between a TIPS DCA holder and the TIPS GUI. The information is displayed in a browser running on a PC system. For U2A access the IT infrastructure has to be able to support cookies and JavaScript. Further details are described in the TIPS User Handbook.\n(2) The ‘ Non-Repudiation of Origin ’ (NRO) signature allows the recipient of a message to prove that such message has been issued and has not been altered.\n(3) If a TIPS DCA holder has technical problems and is unable to submit a TIPS DCA to PM liquidity transfer order, it may contact its central bank which will on a best efforts basis act on behalf of the TIPS DCA holder.\n7.\nRelevant documentation\nFurther details and examples explaining the above rules are contained in the User Handbooks and UDFS as relevant for TIPS, as amended from time to time and published on the ECB's website in English.",
