Treasury File Service test

Treasury File Service is a Nordea solution for treasury departments and financial institutions to generate file payments in SWIFT-format from their own system.

 

 


If you have debit accounts in:

  • Nordea - you can make financial and intra-company payments via the file service.
  • Nordea Sweden and Finland - you can even make internal cash pool payments plus pre-advise Nordea about financial payments to come.

Before you can start sending payments via the Treasury File Service, a test file must be sent to Nordea at least two weeks in advance of every test and customer set-up.

Authentication code/ Hash value calculation/ SHA1

The test requires a so called SHA1 sum in the end of the file. You can check the SHA1 sum for testing purposes by downloading a utility provided by Nordea in order to check that the Hash valuie is correct.

Instructions

Test file to Nordea

Before you can start sending payments via the Treasury File Service, a test file must be sent to Nordea at least two weeks in advance of every test and customer set-up.


The tests first of all deal with handling of file content in the IPS system (International Payment Services) and they are handled together with IPS-IT.

If you use the systems TWIN or CRM you do not need to make a test.
