R-transactions Definition.

The family of SEPA transactions that are sent back, each identified by an ISO reason code: reject (before settlement), return (after settlement), refund (requested by the debtor), and recall (by the originator’s bank). Their rate is the key indicator of a direct debit flow’s quality, since returned SDDs (insufficient funds, disputes) each incur a fee. R-transaction files feed collections and mandate updates.
