This specification provides the definition of the Justified payment request message (JUPREQ) to be used in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in administration, commerce and transport.

This message may be sent by an accounts payable service or equivalent to a payment service or equivalent to request the payment of a sum to one or several creditors. The message may provide all the details required for auditability purposes to justify the requested payment sum(s) in order to enable the payment to be made automatically after the necessary automatic validation (i.e., to ensure that all required information is present and is correct).

The Justified payment request message may be used for both national and international applications. It is based on universal practice related to administration, commerce and transport, and is not dependent on the type of business or industry.

A Justified payment request message is sent by an accounts payable service or equivalent to a payment service or equivalent in order to request that payment be made to one or several creditors.

The message may also include a reference to all the documents (electronic and paper) which justify the sum being requested to be paid thus providing the possibility to trace back to specific documents and consequently identify the originator (electronic messages being signed electronically) and the level of debt engaged.

See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.3 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 1.

See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.3 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 2.
