- The service should be called with an XML document as the primary document. This XML document should conform to a schema published by IBM® along with other ACH components. This message should contain information necessary to identify the entry detail records being returned and should also contain ACH specific reasons for rejection of those entry detail records.

- Testing Considerations
- The system needs to have processed some ACH Entries. Need a valid XML file referencing these entries as the input. Also need to have outbound envelopes configured so that the generated return entries can be packaged into an ACH interchange. For debug messages to be logged, the system log needs to be turned on.
