DS02 — Order Cancelled

Nacha's definition

The Receiver has placed a stop payment order on this debit Entry e.g., recurring debit.

Verbatim from Nacha — ISO 20022 Guide to Mapping U.S. ACH Return Items and Notifications of Change, August 2023, Version 2.01 (Table 1, return reason codes) (return reason code table). Applies to: ALL.

Reinitiation conditions

A stop payment is the Receiver's instruction to its own bank. Nacha's public reinitiation guidance restricts resubmission of returned debits generally but does not give an R08-specific retry permission.

PaymentBrief guidance, not Nacha text

contact the Receiver, find out whether the stop applies to one entry or to the relationship, and do not resubmit the same entry while a stop is in place.

How it appears in an ISO 20022 statement

Nacha's mapping guide maps R08 to camt.053 reason code DS02 (Order Cancelled) — ISO definition: An authorized user has cancelled the order.

Return time frame

Nacha's public rule pages refer to the standard "two-day" return time frame for returns that are not extended (unauthorized) returns. The current Nacha Operating Rules and your ODFI determine the applicable deadline for this code; a general public two-day reference is not a substitute for that code-specific requirement.

What an operator does next

A stop payment order is on this entry. Contact the Receiver to learn whether it is a single-entry stop or effectively a revocation; do not resubmit while the stop stands.

PaymentBrief guidance, not Nacha text. Your ODFI's procedures and the current Nacha Operating Rules govern.

Where this comes up on PaymentBrief

Public-source reference. Quoted definitions and rule statements are attributed to the public documents linked on this page; PaymentBrief's operator guidance is labelled separately. This reference does not reproduce the complete Nacha Operating Rules. The current rules and your ODFI's procedures govern. A gap in a cited public document does not establish that the rules permit an action or that no other rule applies.
