Restricted — permitted only within the Rules’ limits

Nacha's definition

The Receiver has indicated to the RDFI that the number with which the Originator was identified is not correct.

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.

How it appears in an ISO 20022 statement

Nacha's mapping guide maps R22 to camt.053 reason code RR01 (Missing Debtor Account or Identification) — ISO definition: Specification of the debtor’s account or unique identification needed for reasons of regulatory requirements is insufficient or missing

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 governing time limit for this code is set in the Nacha Operating Rules, which Nacha sells and which were not used here, so it is not restated.

Can the entry be reinitiated?

Nacha's reinitiation rule page allows reinitiation "to correct administrative errors", with fields other than Company Name, Company ID and Amount modified only to the extent necessary. A corrected resubmission of a returned debit is therefore treated as a reinitiation, within the Rules' limits and carrying RETRY PYMT. Nacha's reinitiation rule addresses returned debits; a returned credit falls outside it.

PaymentBrief guidance, not Nacha text

correct the field the RDFI identified, and code the resubmission correctly.

What an operator does next

The Receiver says the individual identification number is wrong. Check what you are putting in the Individual ID field against what the Receiver expects.

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

Where this comes up on PaymentBrief

Confidence: high. Status: verified. The Nacha Operating Rules govern. Nacha sells them and they were not used here; every statement above is taken from a public Nacha document or a public US Treasury or Federal Reserve document, named per statement. Where those documents are silent, this card says so of those documents — it is not a claim about everything Nacha has published.
