ANG CSV File Imports for Payments & Templates
For the ANG CSV file format, you will see updated field labels in the Routing/Reference Information section. These changes apply to all parties where address information may be entered, including Beneficiary, Beneficiary Bank, Intermediary Bank, and By Order Of.
Currently, your addresses are captured in an unstructured format.
To comply with hybrid address standards, reformat your address details according to the updated labels.
User recommendations
- Enter the City/Town in its dedicated field.
- Move State/Province and Zip/Postal Code information to the end of Address Line 2, where applicable.
- Fields Address 1 and Address 2 will allow up to 51 characters each, giving you more space to include all necessary address details. If Address 2 exceeds the limit, move the overflow from the beginning of Address 2 to the end of Address Line 1 to maintain the correct order.
