Associated Descriptions

1-4: Reserved for future use.

5: Used if and only if Associated Code (4) specifies MATCHID. This is optional even if Associated Code (4) is specified. Enter the Bank's ID that needs to be converted to the BusinessPLUS two-character check stock ID. This allows the CKID length specified in Associated Numeric Value (4) to have meaning when it is greater than two. Associated Description (5) may be up to twelve characters long and its length should match the length specified in Associated Numeric Value (4).

For example, if a bank is sending three characters, like 001, to specify the Bank ID=FI, enter MATCHID in the BKNC/FIDATEID common code at Code (4) and at Associated Description (5) enter "001." With this set up, when the bank's file contains 001, it is interpreted as meaning FI (if and only if Associated Code (4) is set to MATCHID).
