NPC published Clarification papers and guidelines

NPC has published four documents addressing operational issues arising from the implementation of the Nordic Payments Council scheme rulebooks. These papers, which will be updated from time to time, as required, provides guidance and, where feasible, recommendations to scheme participants on how to handle situations that are not described in the rulebooks.

One of the documents is developed to generally avoid a fragmented approach in the manner in which the scheme rulebooks are implemented. The other documents specifically covers using the Extended Remittance Information option and R-transactions.
