SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario:

You have a computer that is running Microsoft BizTalk Server 2006, BizTalk Server 2006 R2, or BizTalk Server 2004.
You use one of the following products together with the BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT 2009 Message Pack to process messages:
- Microsoft BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT(A4SWIFT) 2.1
- Microsoft BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT 2.3
- Microsoft BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT 3.0
- Microsoft BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT 3.0 Service Pack 1 (SP1)
You enable Business Rule Engine (BRE) validation on the SWIFT disassembler (DASM) and you deploy the validation policy for MT 535 messages.
You receive an MT 535 message that meets the following conditions:
- The Activity Flag (field :17B:ACTI) in sequence A General Information is "N."
- Sequence B is not present.
- Field :22F::STTY//ACCT is present .
- Subsequence B1 is not present.

In this scenario, the message is rejected by BizTalk Server and you receive the following error message:

BRE Error: , Policy: SWIFT_NetworkRule267_Policy, Rule: Validate_MT535, ErrorCode: E67, ( = ).

However, according to the SWIFT manual, this MT 535 message is valid.
