Format Specifications
Introduction The Chase Merchant Services’ Delimited File Reporting (DFR) format was
developed for merchants and vendors who want to use Merchant Services
reporting data in an automated manner for direct uploading into a database
or other application.

Delimited files provide summary or detail information about the activity


processed by Merchant Services during the period. Data files may be
delivered with a choice of delimit characters (comma, tab or pipe) and are
customized to include the specific report data that your company requests.

To sign up for Delimited File Reporting or to modify an existing DFR setup,


please contact your Merchant Services Account Manager.

This This document provides specifications for every report available in a


document Delimited Reporting File. Please note that a given file may not include
every report in this document. If you would like to modify the reports to be
included in your company’s future delimited reporting files, please contact
your Merchant Services Account Manager.

Merchant Services offers a choice of character with which to delimit the data
records in a given DFR file setup. For purposes of illustration throughout this
document, the comma (,) is used as the delimiter. Other options are tab or
pipe ( | ), with a carriage return at the end of each record.

Delivery Delimited file reports may be delivered via any Merchant Services supported
options connectivity. Files are generated seven days per week, 365 days per year.

There are four delivery methods to choose from:

1. Flat file
2. Compressed file
3. Encrypted file
4. Compressed and Encrypted file

See Appendix I - Encryption and Compression, for more information.

Continued on next page

6
Request For The RFR Record is a Request For Response record that enables merchants
Response and vendors to connect to Merchant Services systems to retrieve the DFR
Files file(s). The software used to pick up a DFR file must have the ability to send
the RFR Record on demand.

An additional EOFEOFEOF record needs to follow the RFR record for


merchants using TCP/IP Berkeley Socket protocol.

RFR is not required if processing via SFTP or NDM.

Note: The RFR is a separate, fixed format record sent to Merchant Services.
Please see detailed specification on the next page.

RFR No File If an RFR record is received by Merchant Services, and there is no file
Response available for pick up, the following message is given:
YY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS No data to send back at this time.
EOFEOFEOF
 Message is sent in text file format without header or PID information
and begins in position 2
 TCPIP merchants receive the entire message noted above, with the
EOF line
 Bsync merchants receive the message above, without the EOF line

RFR is a separate record sent to Merchant Services. It should not be sent as


part of the input data file.

This record is not needed for SFTP or NDM file processing.

Report Layouts Overview

Introduction The following pages define the physical layouts of the various record types.

Each record definition is preceded by an example. The report data record


field definition table following the example contains all necessary field
information.

A length and a data type are provided for each field. The data type is either A
(alpha-numeric) or N (numeric only).

Note: Fields such as date (MM/DD/YYYY) or time (HH:MM:SS) that contain


non-numeric characters in addition to numbers are indicated as A (alpha-
numeric). Amounts, which may contain a decimal point in addition to
numbers, are indicated as N. See “Numeric formatting” for more information.

The comments column gives the values of constants or a short description of


the field’s meaning.

A sort order definition follows the report data record field definition table for
each report.

Each unique report header record appears no more than once in a given file.

10
Data Included All reports that have been selected for receipt for one company, at the same
in Report File frequency, are delivered within one set of files. If the company receives
report files at more than one frequency, each frequency constitutes a
separate set of files. Each aggregate set of merchant reports for the same
frequency are concatenated into one or two files (a file “set”) based on the
report type.

The three reports types are:


 Exception – Any report related to a Post-Deposit Event (PDE) such
as Chargeback and ECP Return related reports.
 Financial – Reports related to reconciliation, submission activity and
transaction detail reports.
 Informational – Reports providing information about items such as
foreign exchange rates.

All Exception reports are aggregated into one file with an “A” naming
convention. See File Naming Conventions for more information.

All Financial reports are aggregated into one file with a “B” naming
convention. See File Naming Conventions for more information.

All Informational reports are aggregated into one file with an “E” naming
convention. See File Naming Conventions for more information.

For example, if the company were to receive the FIN0010, FIN0011 and
PDE0017 on a daily basis, then each day two files are generated. One
contains the PDE0017 only and has the “A” naming convention. The second
contains the FIN0010 and FIN0011 and has the “B” naming convention.

No Data Files In the event that the entity has no activity to report for a given period, an
empty report file is generated. An empty file includes the File Header
Record, each applicable Header Record with no Data Records, and the File
Trailer record only.

11
File Naming Convention

File Naming This section describes the naming convention used for Delimited File
Convention Reports. Please note that the file names are only visible if the files are
retrieved via SFTP.

File Name The following table defines the fields included in the file name preceded by
Field an example. Fields within the file name are separated with a decimal point
Descriptions character ( . ) Please note that file name fields are fixed in length.

# between three files that would
otherwise share the same file
name. The first character is always
an “A” for an Exception-type file,
“B” for a Financial-type file or an “E”
for an Informational-type file. The
remaining three characters are
Merchant Services-assigned based
on the file generation.

For example: A123 or B456 or

Numeric Formatting

Formatting of All monetary values are formatted including decimal point and are two
Counts and decimal places except for these zero decimal currencies:
Amounts
Belarussian Ruble
Burundi Franc
CFA Franc BCEAD
CFA Franc BEAC
CFP Franc
Comoro Franc
Djibouti Franc
Japanese Yen
Laos Kip
Malagasy Franc
Paraguay Guarani
Rwanda Franc
South Korean Won
Turkish Lira (New)
Uganda Shilling
Vanuatu Vatu

Zero decimal currencies do not include decimal points or decimal places.


Comma separators are not used for any numeric value—count or amount—
anywhere in the delimited report file.

Example:
1,000 United States Dollars = 1000.00
1,000 Japanese Yen = 1000

Negative Negative values are indicated by a minus sign (-) preceding the value. All
Values other amounts are positive. A negative value normally indicates a debit to
the merchant, unless otherwise indicated within the field description.

Example:
-1000.00 = 1,000 debit to the merchant

Certain reports, such as the Chargeback Activity report or the ECP Return
Activity report, reflect values that are normally negative. In these cases, a
negative value indicates a credit to the merchant. Please see individual
Data Record Field Descriptions for more information on interpreting data for
a specific report.

14
Date and Time All dates are stated as MM/DD/YYYY, unless otherwise indicated for that
Formats field. Times are generally HH:MM:SS, unless otherwise stated, and always
refer to military time (24-hour clock).

Entity Number Entity number and company number fields do not include any leading zeros
even if the zeros are used in submission processing. For merchants who
utilize Alternate ID numbers at the Transaction Division (TD) level, the entity
number is replaced by the Alternate ID for any entity number field that
represents a TD within the delimited report.

Entity Reports An entity report is a set of hierarchical entities that are grouped together to
summarize their transactions. This relationship can be defined to any entities
such as:
 Company (CO)
 Business unit (BU)
 Transaction division (TD)
 Funds Transfer Instruction (FTI)
 Reporting Group (RG).

Entity reports provide a way of excluding entities that would otherwise be


included in a summary at the company, business unit, transaction division, or
funds transfer instruction.

Note:
All entities in a group must have a common parent company

15
Other Formatting

Text Identifier Some fields may contain the same characters that are used to delimit fields.
In these cases, the field is surrounded with double quotes (“”) to denote the
characters as text data. Please see individual report descriptions for the
specific Data Records to which this applies. Field lengths for double-quoted
fields do not include quotation marks.

Suppressed Some data fields and records are noted in this technical specification as
Fields suppressed unless a merchant participates in a particular kind of processing,
such as Cross-Currency. If a field is noted as suppressed, the entire field and
its associated delimiter are not present in the file. This is different from a
field that is noted to have a blank value under specific circumstances. A
blank value field does NOT result in suppression of the delimiter character(s).

Account Masking
Account Masking is offered with DFR Reporting. When this option is selected, the
account number and IBAN are presented with the last 4 data elements in the
clear and all others converted to X’s. This applies to all reports unless otherwise
noted.

Appendix Section
Changes in report format are not made without merchant notification.

The values in this section are dynamic and additions may have been made since
this specification was released.

PDE0017 Provides a detailed listing of chargeback transactions by division at each


Report stage of the chargeback life cycle. Identifies new chargebacks received,
Description returned to the merchant, received for recourse or represented to the issuing
bank.

This delimited report contains two sections: the summary section and the
detail section. The summary section, indicated by the Record Type
PDE0017S, provides totals for activity within each category. The detail
section, indicated by the Record Type PDE0017D, provides transaction level
details about each chargeback. Further detail about the record layouts is
provided in the Data Record Field Descriptions.

How This Merchants use this data to trigger their chargeback management process.

Used documentation for representments, etc.

Options for The PDE0017 report allows merchants to extend the standard report detail
this Report data record with additional data fields. Options available for this report
include:

 Cross Currency (Merchants presenting and settling in different


currencies.)

As a result of option selection, additional data fields (data and delimiter) are
appended to each standard detail data record. The sequence in which the
optional data fields are appended is outlined below.

Appendix G – Cross Currency Processing

Cross Merchants who participate in Merchant Services’ Cross-Currency product


Currency receive files that are structurally different from other merchants’ files. Cross
Processing Currency processing creates the need for additional currency and amount
Impacts DFR fields to qualify data at a more granular level than is otherwise necessary. A
Data Record merchant who is processing cross-currency transactions sees multiple
Formats transaction currencies and/or amounts on many reports.

Reporting for Cross-Currency processing has significant impact on DFR. In


order to maintain the structural integrity of the DFR files, these additional
fields impact ALL data rows for a merchant processing Cross-Currency
transactions, even data rows for like-to-like currency transactions or
divisions.

A merchant selecting to display Cross Currency field at company level (CO)


always sees those fields, which would otherwise be suppressed regardless
of participation in cross currency.

Similarly, a merchant selecting to display Cross Currency field at the entity


level (BU, TD, RG, or FTI) always sees those fields, which would otherwise
be suppressed regardless of participation in cross currency.

For merchants who do not process Cross-Currency transactions, the data


record format is unaltered and the additional fields are suppressed.

If a merchant is using DFR reports and later adds the cross currency
product, the following reports have additional fields in subsequent files:

Deposit Activity Summary (FIN0010)


Deposit Activity Transfer Summary (FIN0010T)
Transaction Summary (LNK010A)
Reject Summary (ACT0033)
Submission Summary (ACT0012)
Service Charge Detail (FIN0011)
Deposit Detail (ACT0010)
Chargeback Activity (PDE0017)
Chargebacks Received (PDE0020)

Please refer to individual report specification for more information.

Continued on next page

253
Uniformity In In order to maintain the structural integrity of the DFR files, these additional
Report fields impact ALL data rows for a merchant processing Cross Currency
Structure transactions, even data rows for like-to-like currency transactions or
divisions. For merchants who do not process Cross Currency transactions,
the data record format is unaltered and the additional data fields are
suppressed, including the delimiter character.

Terms And These report specifications contain an indication for every amount and currency field
Definitions as to whether it represents the “presentment currency” or the “settlement currency”.
The definitions for these terms are:

Term Description
Presentment The currency in which a cardholder’s transaction
Currency is assessed by the merchant and presented to
Merchant Services. Presentment currencies
apply to sale, refund, chargeback and
authorization transaction face values.
Settlement The currency in which a merchant is paid. For
Currency non-Cross Currency processing, the presentment
and settlement currencies are the same. All fees
are assessed in settlement currency and do not
have an associated presentment currency value.
Foreign The rate of conversion that was used by Merchant
Exchange Services to convert the presentment currency
Rate value into the settlement currency value.

Appendix I – Encryption and Compression
Introduction The use of Open PGP provides support for all available protocols for
compression and encryption of data. It is a widely accepted flexible tool that
allows for any combination of functionality required: i.e. compression only,
encryption only, or compression and encryption.

This encryption and compression selection is not applicable to NetConnect


Batch as compression and encryption are handled within the NetConnect
Batch Product.

Encryption and/or compression of any file is performed at the file level, not at
the record level.

Merchants must provide a key to Merchant Services to be used in the


creation of the DFR files.

Merchant Public Keys:

 Key must be generated and sent to their Merchant Services technical


representative as an attachment via email. The key should be named
with suffix “.asc” for ASCII Armor.
 Company Name and PID number must be in the comments field of
the generated key.
 There must be one key per PID.
 The same key must be used for production DFR files retrieved from
both test and production environments.
 There is no mandate from Merchant Services for the keys to expire.
However, if the merchant chooses to have the key expire, they must
give their Merchant Services business representative 30 days
advance notice.

Merchant Services Generated Files:

Merchant Services uses ASCII Armor to encrypt files. Please see the chart
below for the file extensions that are used for each delivery option.

Delivery Option File Extension


Compression Only .gpg
Encryption Only .gpg
Both .gpg

257
Appendix J – Availability
Introduction DFRs are generated in batch mode exclusively and cannot be run on
demand. Once generated, flat-files are hosted on Merchant Services servers
and available on NetConnect servers for 72 hours or NetConnect Batch
servers for 30 days.

Daily Reports (generated 365 days per year): Report generation begins
after the merchant’s Merchant Services processing day ends. Typically
reports are generated and transferred to Merchant Services servers prior to 9
AM ET of the next processing day.

Weekly Reports (generated 52 weeks per year): Report generation begins


on Friday after the merchant’s Merchant Services processing day ends,
Typically reports are available on Merchant Services servers within 24 hours.

Monthly Reports (generated 12 months per year): Report generation


begins on the last day of the month (calendar or fiscal) after the merchant’s
Merchant Services processing day ends. Typically reports are loaded on
Merchant Services servers within 48 hours.

258
Appendix K – Data Field Numbering
Introduction As a result of selecting report specific options, additional data fields (data
and delimiter) are appended to standard report data records. The approach
used to identify the sequence in which optional data fields are appended is
outlined below.

Sequence 1 Standard Data Record (Data Field Numbers 1 to x)


Sequence 2 Option Name 1 - Data Records (x Data Fields)
Sequence 3 Option Name 2 - Data Records (x Data Fields)

Sequence 1 is always present as it represents the data record for the


standard report.

Subsequent sequences (Sequence 2, Sequence 3, Sequence 4, etc.) are


optional and are appended to the report data record only if the merchant
elects to receive it, Any combination of optional sequences can be selected
unless otherwise noted.

Field numbering of data fields associated with selected optional data records
begins at the next available (left most) position and increments by one until
the last field is appended. The last data field in the record does not have a
trailing delimiter.

Example: ACT0002 with IBAN Option

Standard ACT0002 Data Record + IBAN Detail Data Record


Field Numbers 1 to 25 + Field Numbers 26 to 32
