#PySepaDD - Generate SEPA Direct Debit XML

PySepaDD is a python class to generate SEPA PAIN.008.001.02 compliant Direct Debit XML files.

##Configuring

####Parameters When intializing PySepaDD you MUST supply a config dictionary, the dictionary requires the following parameters:

  • (String) name : The name of the creditor.
  • (String) IBAN : The International Bank Account Number of the creditor.
  • (String) BIC : The Bank Identifier Code of the creditor.
  • (Boolean) batch : Whether to process in batch or non-batch mode. (Likely True).
  • (String) creditor_id: The creditor identification. (Supplied by your bank).
  • (String) currency : The creditors currency. (ISO 4217)

####Errors The initialization will throw an Exception when the config does not validate. The Exception contains a concatenated string (prepended by Config file did not validate. with the (capitalized) items that are missing. For example:

Config file did not validate. NAME_MISSING BATCH_MISSING

####Example

config = {"name": "Test von Testenstein",
          "IBAN": "NL50BANK1234567890",
          "BIC": "BANKNL2A",
          "batch": True,
          "creditor_id": "000000",
          "currency": "EUR"
          }
sepa = PySepaDD(config)

##Adding Payments After initializing with a config, you can add payments with the add_payment(payment_dict) function, for which you will have to supply a payment dictionary.

####Parameters The payment dictionary requires the following parameters:

  • (String) name : The name of the debtor.
  • (String) IBAN : The International Bank Account Number of the debtor.
  • (String) BIC : The Bank Identifier Code of the debtor.
  • (Integer) amount : The amount to debit in cents.
  • (String) type : The transaction/batch type. (FRST,RCUR,OOFF,FNAL).
  • (datetime.date) collection_date: The creditors currency. (ISO 4217).
  • (String) mandate_id : The alphanumeric mandate identifier.
  • (datetime.date) mandate_date : The signing date of the mandate.
  • (String) description : The description for the debtor. (Max 140 char alphanumeric).

####Errors The add_payments(payment_dict) method will throw an Exception when the payment does not validate. The Exception contains a concatenated string with the following (combined) possibilities:

  • AMOUNT_NOT_INTEGER

    The amount supplied is not an integer (perhaps it is a string or float?).

  • MANDATE_DATE_INVALID_OR_NOT_DATETIME_INSTANCE

    The mandate date is not a proper datetime.date instance (perhaps it is a string?).

  • COLLECTION_DATE_INVALID_OR_NOT_DATETIME_INSTANCE

    The collection date is not a proper datetime.date instance (perhaps it is a string?).

####Example

payment = {"name": "Test von Testenstein",
            "IBAN": "NL50BANK1234567890",
            "BIC": "BANKNL2A",
            "amount": 5000,
            "type": "RCUR",
            "collection_date": datetime.date.today(),
            "mandate_id": "1234",
            "mandate_date": datetime.date.today(),
            "description": "Test transaction"
           }
sepa.add_payment(payment)

##Exporting To create the direct debit XML file, use the export() function. This will return a string containing the file contents.

####Example

contents = sepa.export()
print contents

##Helpers

####int_to_decimal_str(int) This will convert your integers (cents) back to a decimal string (full currency, for example Euro's) with full stop separator and no thousand separators. It will not use divisions, so there will never be floating point errors.

####decimal_str_to_int(str) This will convert your decimal strings (full currency, for example Euro's) with full stop separator and no thousand separators to an integer. (cents) It will not use divisions, so there will never be floating point errors.

####check_payment(payment_dict) This will check your payment dictionary, but will not throw an exception when invalid. It will return either True indicating that your payment is valid, or it will return a string containing error messages as mentioned in the Adding Payments section.
