To create an FI Reimbursement Authorization Amendment

An amendment to an FI reimbursement authorization allows you to modify the terms of a Letter of Credit reimbursement.  Information about the reimbursement amendment is entered on two tabs.  Each tab is used to enter a specific type of data.  Click the name of the tabs below for a description of the fields on those tabs.  In the CitiDirect application, a red asterisk ( * ) indicates required fields.

1. Click the Main Tab to enter information about the Letter of Credit being authorized.

   The following fields appear on this form.  Where possible, use the Library Look-Up button and drop-down arrows to fill in fields.  A red asterisk ( * )indicates required fields.

   To submit the current transaction and save it as a Pre Format, select the Save as Pre Format check box and enter a Pre Format Code and Description in the appropriate fields.  Selecting this check box creates a new Pre Format Library profile that can be retrieved in the future to create a new transaction.  You can also select the Add Counter Party to FI Counter Party Library and/or the Add Bank Information to FI Trade Bank Library check boxes to add the counter party and trade bank information that you have entered into their respective libraries.  Once all selections have been made click OK.  The library profiles proceed to the next step as defined by your flow control requirements for each library and the transaction is subject to flow controls for transactions.

   –OR–

   Click Save to save all the entered information, whether complete or not, and return to the Input/Modify Tab.  A saved transaction can be viewed from the Input/Modify Tab, and it carries an "Input" status.
