Red = Rejected, declined, voided are items that have not been processed. Reference number is a hyperlink to a detailed information screen. Note: When processing in the BankServ system V3, a chargeback will result in the creation of a new separate transaction with TYPE = CHARGEBACK.

The ORIGINAL CHARGEBACKED item is a placeholder for the status change of the original item. The CHARGEBACK CHARGEBACKED item is the one that will debit the client’s account. See Check Detail for cross referencing. Note: Scrolling to the bottom of any Query Results screen will bring you to the Export Button (See page 16 for functionality), and to item count and dollar amount totals.

Unlike the Transaction Query, the Return Query can have up to three entries for a particular item, one for each time it returned. Both records will display identical data, except that the return date and return code will change. See items (1) and (2) as an example. 1 2 The Return Code column contains some of the following most commonly used return codes (See Appendix A for a complete listing of return codes): Return Reason Insufficient Funds Closed Account Invalid Account Number Uncollected Funds Customer Advises not Authorized Account Frozen Amount Field Error NetCheck User Guide 3.0 ACH return Code R01 R02 R04 R09 R10 R16 R19 25 ICL Return Code A D E B Q F W March 15th, 2005 The Return Detail screen is displayed by clicking on the reference number in the Return Query Results screen.
