The valid Record types are always indicated in the latest CWR standard specification, and indicated on CISAC’s Record Type table.
These are used on a Record prefix to identify it’s type.
This list is offered just to make it easier identifying each of them.
| Record Type | Record name |
|---|---|
| GRH | Group Header |
| GRT | Group Trailer |
| HDR | Transmission Header |
| TRL | Transmission Trailer |
Note that the Transaction type is actually the type of the header Record on the Transaction.
So for example an Acknowledgment Transaction starts with an Acknowledgment Record.
