What it means in practice
In a pacs.002 or pain.002 status report, a status reason code explains why a payment instruction was rejected (RJCT) or why it has another status. It sits in TxInfAndSts/StsRsnInf/Rsn/Cd.
The funds are returned after an investigation found they cannot be applied and nothing can be fixed.
What to do
- Reconcile the return and arrange a new payment with correct data if one is still due.
