0. INTRODUCTION
This specification provides the definition of the Financial
statement of an account message (FINSTA) to be used in
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners
involved in administration, commerce and transport.
1. SCOPE

functions between financial institutions and their customers.

items confirming entries on a customer's account. The message
type may contain several accounts (quoted in the B-level).

4. MESSAGE DEFINITION
4.1 Segment clarification
This section should be read in conjunction with the segment
table which indicates mandatory, conditional and repeating
requirements.
The following semantic principles apply to the message and are
intended to facilitate the understanding and implementation of
the message: The Financial Statement of an Account message is
structured in three levels: A,B and C. Level A starts with the
UNH segment, level B starts with the LIN segment in Segment
Group 4 and level C starts with the SEQ segment in Segment
Group 6.
- Level A contains general data related to the whole message
and is contained in Segment Groups 1, 2, 3 and 7.
- Level B contains the account related details such as
balances, account number. Furthermore, this level describes the
kind of statement.
- Level C contains the single item as it was advised to the
customer by a debit/credit advice. Furthermore, this level
contains any level B of a multiple message such as PAYMUL,
DEBMUL or CREMUL. In some special cases it is possible, that
several B levels are contained in a message without any
dependent C levels (balance confirmation for auditing
purposes).
- Where a choice of code or text is given only the code
element should be used wherever possible.
