Matchcode Validation Service
The bank account validation service performs modulus checking of bank account numbers against sort codes. This service can be used to check that an account number matches to a sortcode. Modulus checking can be applied to various activities, including allowing originators of transactions for the Bacs clearing service to write and use software that checks the possible validity of the account details quoted in their payment instructions before submission. Validating the sorting code and account details of these transactions has many benefits including helping to reduce the number of transactions that may be returned. The Matchcode Validation Service products are available via the Identity Management ExecuteCapture web service method.Global Bank Validation - Input Criteria
Method: ExecuteCapture The ExecuteCapture method is used to access the Bank Account Validation product and services by specifying the corresponding profile.Input Details

Bank Output Format
The results of the GB Bank Account Web Service search are returned in a ProfileResponseDetails structure with a ProfileResponseDetails → responseType of ‘VALIDATE’. The ProfileResponseDetails structure contains a single ValidateResponse data structure which holds an array of ValidateResponseData records containing the returned validation data per input bank account details. ExecuteCaptureResponse → ProfileResponse [0] → ProfileResponseDetails [0] → ValidateResponse → ValidateResponseData The returned ValidateResponseData data structure is detailed below: Type: ValidateResponseData| Field Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| input | String | The input Bank Account and Sortcode |
| status | Enumeration | SUCCESS if the validation has taken place, FAILURE otherwise |
| validityFlag | Enumeration | Overall validation result of the number (VALID, INVALID, UNKNOWN, UNSUPPORTED) |
| validationCodes | IdmDataArrayAdditionalData | Array of key value pairs containing the validation response codes for the input |
Sample Output XML
The following output XML demonstrates the ProfileResponse for the bank component. The component name is Bank Account Validation and the response type is VALIDATE. The validation results for each bank account will be returned in the same order as input. The array of ValidateResponse data structures contain the individual response details. The primary response value is validityFlag which dictates whether or not the account has been deemed to be valid or not. In addition a series of key value pair response codes are returned for each number, which contain data supplier specific summaries of the input.<!-- Bank Account Component Response -->
