Check payment batches before the bank.
On this device. No XML upload. Rule-only sample: XSD not executed.
Find common payment-file errors locally: IBAN, counts, control sums and transfer settings. One missed field can delay a salary or supplier batch.
Ready · no checks executed.
Four separate answers
- XML syntax: parseable input, with DTDs blocked.
- XSD: not executed until you supply a schema with sufficient rights and provenance. A supplied schema is not independently certified as the official ISO artifact.
- Business checks: IBAN format / supported country lengths / MOD97, BIC shape, NbOfTxs and present CtrlSum per group and payment block, positive EUR amounts, SEPA, SLEV and TRF.
- Plausibility: duplicate EndToEndId and execution date versus your reference date. Warnings require context.
Full EPC profile and bank acceptance remain not checked. We do not check account existence, Verification of Payee / name–IBAN match, balance or cutoff. No full green result is given for an unknown bank.
Fictional examples with known scope
Valid rule-only .09 example · XSD-error candidate: missing MsgId · Extra-rule error: CtrlSum mismatch
The valid example passes the listed independent rules at reference date 2026-11-05. Both XSD validity and the missing-MsgId XSD error remain unverified until an authorised ISO XSD is supplied. The independently authored test-only XSD demonstrates error isolation; it is never presented as the ISO schema. Expected outcomes and paths.
Fix the first payment error
Sources and version boundaries
ISO message catalogue and archive are authoritative. pain.001.001.13 is the newest catalogue entry checked on 5 November 2026; it does not migrate your bank automatically. This tool starts with .09; select .03 only as an explicit legacy profile.
EPC SCT implementation guidance and DK/EBICS lifecycle report the address transition delay. No hard November 2026 rejection is applied. Confirm current requirements with your bank. ARB message guidance distinguishes EUR and other-currency payment streams.
ISO repository use and reproduction are addressed by ISO IPR policy and terms of use. XSDHub is independent; ISO is the sole official source of current ISO 20022 materials. This lite release bundles no ISO, EPC, bank XSD or TVS. Public access alone is not permission to process or redistribute a bank pack.
Existing libxml2-wasm engine: MIT; libxml2: MIT. Engine licence, libxml2 licence, and SEPA scope, provenance and notices. No Schematron or new plugin is bundled.
Read a batch failure without changing the payment
Treat group totals and individual transfer values as separate evidence. If a reported count disagrees with the number of transactions, compare the exporter’s grouping logic with the actual payment blocks before changing a count by hand. Where a control sum is supplied, trace it to those transactions. A count or sum that is absent is a different situation from one that is present and inconsistent.
For a rejected account identifier, compare the original beneficiary record with the exported value. Do not invent a plausible replacement to obtain a passing result. The local check cannot establish ownership of an account. After correcting source data, regenerate the complete batch, rerun the selected profile and then follow the bank’s own submission and response procedure.
Repeat next month
Single checks stay free. Pro US$19/month: 25 files per local batch. Team US$49/month: 100, with existing account limits. Local checking follows existing batch entitlements; it does not consume server validation quota. No new client workspace is created.
