  • If the exception code is A1, the return code will be the return code from New Return Item window.
  • If the exception code is A2 or A5, the return code will be 81.
  • If the exception code is A3, the return code will be the code in the Return Code field in the Share Draft section on the Credit Union Profile - Shares tab.
  • If the exception code is CP, CO, CU, or CA, the return code will be 83.
  • If the exception code is everything else, the return code will be the code in the Return Code field in the Share Draft section on the Credit Union Profile - Shares tab.
