Request for Payment (TCH)

Scenario that describes the end to end processing of a request for payment that is initiated by a creditor client.

The request is sent to the creditor financial institution (FI), forwarded to the clearing and settlement mechanism (CSM), and passed to the debtor FI. Once the request is validated by the debtor FI it sends a status confirmation to the CSM which in turn sends a status confirmation to the creditor FI. The debtor FI also sends a notification to the debtor client.
