  • The Encrypted PIN Translate verb will not accept ISO-0 or ISO-3 formats in the input PIN profile unless ISO-0 or ISO-3 is in the output PIN profile.
  • The Encrypted PIN Translate and Secure Messaging for PINs verbs will not accept ISO-1 or ISO-2 formats in the output profile parameter when the input profile parameter contains ISO-0, ISO-3, or VISA4.
  • When the input profile parameter for the Encrypted PIN Translate and Secure Messaging for PINs verbs contains either ISO-0 or ISO-3 formats, the PAN within the decrypted PIN block will be extracted. This PAN must be the same as the PAN that was supplied as the input PAN parameter, and this PAN must be the same as the PAN supplied as the output PAN parameter.
  • The input PAN and output PAN parameters for the Encrypted PIN Translate and Secure Messaging for PINs verbs must be equivalent.
