    19.12.2023 Update of ‘session base data’ The EBICS order types ZZ3, ZZ4 and ZZ9 (data with TIFF) for PostFinance are not any more supported, because they are not any more used / allowed by PostFinance.

    01.07.2024 Bug fixed: When sending pain.008 files  In some cases, FTX reported the QR-IID of the ordering party bank instead of the IID. This could cause in an error, that the file could not be transferred to the bank because there was no contract with the incorrect QR-IID found. 
    16.07.2024 Big fixed: FTX Return Codes and EBICS Order Types Fixed the following two bugs:FTX and FTX.API reported Code 1 when no camt documents where available trying a fetch command for a UBS E-Banking contract. Therefore also the parameter RetCode_NoData of swox.ini was ignored.For some (new) Swisscom EBICS banks, FTX executed the wrong C52, C53 and C54 order types for EBICS version 2.x contracts to fetch camt data.
