What pacs.028 is for

The FinancialInstitutionToFinancialInstitutionPaymentStatusRequest message is sent by the debtor agent to the creditor agent, directly or through other agents and/or a payment clearing and settlement system. It is used to request a FIToFIPaymentStatusReport message containing information on the status of a previously sent instruction.
The FIToFIPaymentStatusRequest message is exchanged between agents to request status information about instructions previously sent. Its usage will always be governed by a bilateral agreement between the agents.
The FIToFIPaymentStatusRequest message can be used to request information about the status (such as rejection, acceptance) of a credit transfer instruction, a direct debit instruction, as well as other intra-agent instructions (for example FIToFIPaymentCancellationRequest).
The FIToFIPaymentStatusRequest message refers to the original instruction(s) by means of references only or by means of references and a set of elements from the original instruction.
The FIToFIPaymentStatusRequest message can be used in domestic and cross-border scenarios.
