• Message class: 5G - HR: Messages for Britain

• Message number: 230

• Message text: Modulus 19 Checksum on &1 number failed

What causes this issue?

The entered &v1& number must conform to a module 19 check.
The MODULUS 19 Check is used to confirm the validity of the ECON/SCON
provided by the Employer. It cannot identify if any of the digits of the
reference number provided are incorrect therefore it shuld not be used
to amend the reference number in an attempt to provide the correct
SCON/ECON.
The calculation used to confirm the validity of the supplied SCON/ECON
is as follows .-
FIXED VALUE FOR A SCON = 51
FIXED VALUE FOR AN ECON = 37

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How can this happen?

To confirm the validity of SCON S1301234T, take the supplied digits of
the reference number and multipy as follows
1 x 8 = 8
3 x 7 = 21
0 x 6 = 0
1 x 5 = 5
2 x 4 = 8
3 x 3 = 9
4 x 2 = 8
Total = 59
Total + Fixed Value(51) = 110
DIVIDE 110 by 19 = 5 remainder 15
The remainder is then checked against a table of check letters to
confirm that the check letter is 'T'.
