Subject: Submitter Transaction Identifier - 270/271
My question is regarding Submitter Transaction Identifier(BHT03 - Header).
The guide notes states -
".. This identifier is to be returned in the
corresponding 271 transaction’s BHT03. This identifier will only be returned by
the last entity to handle the 270. This identifier will not be passed through
the complete life of the transaction. All recipients of 270 transactions are
required to return the Submitter Transaction Identifier in their 271 response if
one is submitted."
Considering the following two statements :
1> This identifier will not
be passed through the complete life of the transaction.
2> This is the
number assigned by the originator to identify the
transaction within the
originator’s business application system.
My question is that for statement <2> to happen the provider needs to
receive the same number back on 271. But, if the number doens't get passed
throughout the lifecycle of the transaction(as stated in statement <1>),
how will the provider receive it back on 271?
I am certainly missing
something out here. Please comment and clarify.
Thanks in advance.
John
