ISO20022 Swiss direct debit CHDD in Microsoft Dynamics AX

Swiss direct debit is implemented by using the payment formats functionality in the Account receivable module. The following new payment format is available:

  • Generic ISO20022 Direct Debit CH (CHDD)

You should consider the following information when using this payment format:

  • Swiss direct debit CH-DD allows initiation of domestic direct debits in currencies CHF and EUR and intends to substitute legacy Postfinance txt direct debit format DebitDirect. User should generate separate files for direct debits in different currencies.

  • Schema CH-DD is identified by Service level code "CHDD".

  • Information about direct debit mandates is not present in direct debit file as per the implementation guidelines and thus, mandates functionality is not applicable for Swiss direct debit.

  • Two direct debit procedures are applicable: Customer direct debit contains "DDCOR1", business to business direct debit contains "DDB2B". Exact procedure is identified through the Local instrument. User should generate separate files for direct debits of different procedures.

  • It's assumed that customer bank account is located inside Switzerland. No validation is implemented.

  • No status report pain.002 is implemented in Accounts receivable at this point.
