Using purpose codes in SEPA Transfer

The purpose code of a booking is defined by clicking on the control element under the title "SEPA Purpose Code" in the main window.

A list of common purpose codes is displayed by clicking on the combo box. The codes displayed there differ depending on the type of booking (direct debits support a different set of purpose codes).

Using the "Other code" option, a free text field is displayed in which an individual code can be added. Please note that only entries in the "External Code Set" of the ISO 20022 standard are permitted.
