Please note: “XXX” each time will be replaced with the FI code of your institution and ddmmyyyy

In the FTP folder the errors files will be grouped in a .zip file with the following name convention:
XXX_ddmmyyyy_dd_MM_yyyy_HH_mm_ss where:
XXX is the FI code
ddmmyyyy is the Accounting Date of the file
dd_MM_yyyy_HH_mm_ss is the timestamp that indicates when the file has been put in
FTP folder
There are many clients available on the market (some for free). Our users have had success with
specific versions of Filezilla. CIB will communicate the suggested FTP transfer client after tests in
production determine the best performing one.
4.2.2 CD ROM
If the FTPS channel is unavailable to the FI, the monthly contribution files can be transmitted
encrypted via CD Rom.
The filenames must follow the same format as the FTPS submission.
PLEASE NOTE: after sending the CD ROM, you must also send an email to
mehedi.hasan@bangladeshbank.org to indicate that the file was sent.

The input file type must be a space delimited .txt file, and must have UTF-8 encoding.
The output file type is a space delimited .txt file where the first row shows the name of the

for Numeric Fields: left padded with ZEROs to fill the length of the field. For example, if a
Numeric Field has size “8”, and we want to show the number “1,000” we will need to fill it
