Iteration 7 Issues

Change Request

Update the description for transactionId to include "Mandatory if isDetailAvailable is set to true".

Context

This makes the implied requirement explicit and clear. It doesn't change or affect existing implementations.

Change Request

Introduce a new data field to denote when financialInstitution is not populated due to card scheme payment

Context

Given that the only condition imposed on this field for optionally omitting it is due to payments via card scheme, would it suffice to update the requirement of this field to conditional?

This would retain the implicit inference that the absence of the financialInstitution value means it is a card scheme payment however it would not create a breaking change: it would be a documentation fix to correctly highlight the conditional nature of the field value. Admittedly this is not an explicit indicator like your proposal.

Change Request

Make lastUpdateTime mandatory

Context

The lastUpdateTime field and updated_at claim should align. In other words, the same value should be responded to when the Data Holder has an update time or can infer a creation time for the customer information.

Regarding optional vs mandatory requirements for lastUpdateTime, at the time of initial consultation, several Data Holders indicated that they did not have a last update time and weren't able to derive the creation date.

Since the optional definition in the CDS means if you have the data you must supply it then it will be effectively mandatory unless a Data Holder doesn't hold update or creation time.

Change Request

Add support for other NPP service overlays such as X2P2 and X2P3

Context

Seeking input on whether any banks have implemented X2P2 and X2P3 service overlays. The DSB's understanding is that they are not currently implemented by any NPP participants and in the absence of a definition of the service overlay payloads, this would be premature.

There has been other discussion around providing better representation of existing payment schemes for instance, expanding transaction detail to clearly differentiate:

  • BPay: BPAY reference id
  • Traditional payments: BSB, Account Number etc
  • International payments: Routing codes, payment instructions, intermediaries etc.
  • NPP payments distinguished by service name and service version
  • Internal Transfers: Source/Destination account
  • Card payments

Change Request Remove references in the standards to obligations in the past

Change Request

Change or clarify the use of the term base path and base URI.

Meeting Minutes

Notes

Issue #342 https://github.com/ConsumerDataStandardsAustralia/standards-maintenance/issues/342

  • Treating the value as conditional was supported
  • A community member raised an upcoming change from Visa will provide greater visibility on merchant details so this information may become more accessible even for card schemes
  • It was suggested that the financialInsitution should be provided where possible for card schemes thus the proposed isCardSchemeDirectDebit approach wouldn't be the ideal way to deal with the issue
  • The statement in the standards "Is required unless the payment is made via a credit card scheme" would still apply because there will be no value for historical card payments and may be limited early support for additional merchant details via card schemes. Where there is, the standards would require the population of the value because it is not optional from the perspective that it is at the discretion of the DH to provide.

Issue #181 https://github.com/ConsumerDataStandardsAustralia/standards-maintenance/issues/181

  • It is understood based on feedback from community members in the iteration call and feedback from the NPPA that eftpos/BPAY service overlays X2P2 and X2P3 have been delayed. Proceeding with this change without sufficient informed data around the schemas for X2P2 and X2P3 data would be premature.
  • DSB will seek feedback from other Data Holders whether there is any existing support for newer service overlays at this time

Issue #379 https://github.com/ConsumerDataStandardsAustralia/standards-maintenance/issues/379

  • Preference expressed on the call was to retain recent future dated obligations for 3 months past their obligation date. Any past obligations older than 3 months from the current standards release date can be removed from the main standards FDO table

Issue #373 https://github.com/ConsumerDataStandardsAustralia/standards-maintenance/issues/373

  • Community member raised that there is further ambiguity with holder path vs base path vs base URI
  • Holder path is intended to be the root path set by the DH

Other business

  • No other business was raised.
