Stakeholder testing: delivery report 24 May 2023

Corrections to the previous implementation

Lenders – reporting data on loan contracts

  • The deviating technical rules for required/optional data elements in transferred loans can be tested in the stakeholder testing environment.

Lenders – checking loan data

  • The BatchReference data field has been deleted from the API for checking loan data as unnecessary.

Known defects

Lenders – reporting data on loan contracts

  • The error messages returned by the system do not quite match the error messages described in the document ‘API processing rules and error codes’. The error codes, however, are the same as in the document.
  • In the API for changing loan data, certain information relating to the time of grant can be reported in the loan-specific data or, alternatively, in the Unchanged data fields list element. The list element has not been implemented yet in the way it is described in the API description.
  • In the batch reference, the allowed characters are a-z A-Z 0-9 /\-|( ){ }[ ]/%'_?!=,*+. ':;&@$# and space. According to the API description, characters å, ä and ö are also allowed. The API description will be changed.
  • In leasing contracts, the monthly instalment must be greater than 0. According to the API description, 0 is also an allowed value. The API description will be changed.

Test IDs

  • Some of the artificial personal IDs provided for stakeholders are currently not working in the stakeholder testing environment. If you receive an error message about a test ID, try another artificial personal ID.
