This transaction is used to register the receipt of a reimbursement authorization from a bank issuing the L/C. A reimbursement authorization is mainly sent by the issuing bank to the reimbursing bank as a SWIFT MT 740.
On the “Overview” Panel, a checkbox determines whether the contract is subject to Article 7 of the Uniform Rules of Bank-to-Bank Reimbursements under Documentary Credits or not. The information is stored in the database and is available for reimbursement claims. The checkbox can only be checked, if the option “URR Latest Version” is set in combobox “Applicable Rules” (in this case the checkbox will be checked automatically).
If the checkbox is unchecked (contract is not subject to Article 7 of URR (Latest Version)), the expiry date of the reimbursement authorization must be considered. Receipt of a reimbursement claim after expiry can only be honored after authorization from the issuing bank.
If the checkbox is checked (contract is subject to Article 7 of URR (Latest Version)), the expiry date must not be considered, as the reimbursement instructions are still valid, even after the expiry date has passed. In such a case, the issuing bank would have to inform the reimbursing bank that the authorization is no longer valid. On receipt of a claim after expiry, however, as a precaution an inquiry is sent to the issuing bank (cf. information under the transaction “Receiving Reimbursement Claim”).
The “Confirmed by us” field shows the current status of the confirmation according to which the internal booking entries are made. It shows whether a confirmation is in hand or not. If a silent confirmation is in hand (which is not to be communicated externally), this status will be shown here as well (details under “Confirmations”).
This transaction creates a new Reimbursement contract.
If an existing Reimbursement contract is used, it may not be open or closed.
