Thresholds
Thresholds are used during batch (ICL) aggregation, as a guide for calculating which batches (ICLs) are to be grouped together during entry allocation. As the Transaction Server entry services marking process identifies a batch (ICL), it compares the batch (ICL) data to the defined thresholds for the current rule element. If the defined thresholds are not exceeded, the marking process continues with the next batch (ICL) and repeats the process. Each batch (ICL) is aggregated with the previous one and compared again to its thresholds. Once a threshold is exceeded, the batches (ICLs) that were aggregated have an entry allocated to them. If no more batches (ICLs) are found, any batches (ICLs) that have been aggregated are checked to see if they are within the threshold limit. If they are, they are allocated to an entry. If they do not meet the minimum thresholds, they are not allocated to an entry.
- debitAmount
- Total debit amount for the batches (ICLs), in pennies
- creditAmount
- Total credit amount for the batches (ICLs), in pennies
- totalItems
- Total transactions (both credit and debit) for the batches (ICLs)
| Attribute | Required | Values/Example | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| min | No | min="5000" |
0 | Identifies the minimum threshold required for batches (ICLs) to be aggregated. Note: Minimum thresholds are in effect while the business day of the batch (ICL) is active. Once the
business day is closed, the minimum thresholds are ignored to ensure that batches (ICLs) are
allocated to entries in a timely manner.
|
| max | No | max="20000" |
0 | Identifies the maximum threshold to use during aggregation. The maximum threshold is used as a guide for aggregation calculation of batches (ICLs). |
