Alder Books Reconciliation: MT940 whose :62F: closing balance is out by 100.00
MT940 whose :62F: closing balance is out by 100.00 for Alder Books Reconciliation. Identical to bank-statement-mt940.txt in every tag except :62F: and :64:, which state C260824USD10336,00 where the 24 :61: movements applied to the :60F: opening balance give C260824USD10236,00. The file is out by exactly 100.00 and nothing inside the statement explains the difference.

Expected to fail- Scenario
- Parse the MT940 and verify the closing balance by replaying the statement lines.
- Expected result
- Replaying the 24 :61: lines from the :60F: opening balance 5000,00 yields 10236,00, but :62F: declares 10336,00, a 100.00 overstatement that :64: repeats. A parser that reads :62F: as authoritative imports a bank balance the transactions do not support.
What is a .txt file?
TXT is a plain-text file containing unformatted character data with no styling or structure beyond line breaks. Its interpretation depends on character encoding, most commonly UTF-8, and on line-ending convention. It is the most universal and portable text container.
How to use this file
Use an example TXT to test encoding detection, line-ending (LF versus CRLF) handling, and any tool that reads or streams raw text input.
How to use this file for testing
“Alder Books Reconciliation: MT940 whose :62F: closing balance is out by 100.00” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Data import, Error handling. Realistic faker-generated datasets with documented schemas for testing import and ETL flows.
Documented properties for this file: CRLF. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.
Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such, expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.
Data fixtures document their exact quirks (delimiters, encodings, null handling, schema, and row counts) in the spec table. Point your parser or importer at the file and assert it handles the documented edge cases; clean and deliberately-messy siblings make before/after diffs straightforward.

Well-formed XML with the same header, balances and TxsSummry as bank-statement-camt053.xml, but the final Ntry, TXN-024 for 206.00 on 2026-08-24, has been dropped. NbOfNtries still declares 24 while only 23 Ntry elements are present, and the entries now sum to 10442.00 against a CLBD balance of 10236.00.
- txtAlder Books Reconciliation: Fixed-width GL feed with one record a byte shortFixed-width GL feed with one record a byte short for Alder Books Reconciliation. The same 66 records as gl-feed-fixed-width.txt except that record 5 is 119 characters instead of 120: the final character of the 4-character currency field has been lost. Every other record is correct, so a reader that splits on newlines and slices by position reads USD as US on that one record and carries on silently.
- csvAlder Books Reconciliation: Journal batch with one entry out by 45.00Journal batch with one entry out by 45.00 for Alder Books Reconciliation. The same 3 journals as journal-batch.csv except that line 2 of JB-2026-08-02 credits 19.50 where its debit line is 64.50. That one journal is out by 45.00; the other two balance exactly, which is what makes this the realistic case: a batch-level check catches it only because nothing else offsets it.
- csvAlder Books Reconciliation: Trial balance out by 1250.00Trial balance out by 1250.00 for Alder Books Reconciliation. Identical to trial-balance.csv except that account 5200 Services expense is stated as 1923.00 instead of 673.00. Debits therefore come to 14350.00 against credits of 13100.00, a difference of exactly 1250.00. The TOTAL row is recalculated and agrees with the account rows, so the file is internally consistent and only the double-entry rule is broken.
