BatchControlInfo

Validations ASN.1 Parent Types

All items are mandatory except File Type Indicator which will only be present where the file represent test data, RAP File Sequence Number (used where the batch has previously been returned with a fatal error and is now being resubmitted) and Operator Specific Information which is optional.

The logical and physical structures must not be changed up to and including the Release Version Number – this ensures that the TAP release version can be readily identified.  Any new groups/items required may be inserted at any point after Release Version Number.

Please note that this implies also that the ‘SEQUENCE OF’ construct in the ASN.1 specification cannot be replaced by ‘SET OF’ within the Transfer Batch, Notification and Batch Control Information.

Conditionality: 

Mandatory within group Transfer Batch.
