Movement object

The Movement object

A Movement represents a single transaction in a bank account, such as a transfer, a check, or another debit or credit. It is retrieved from an institution for an account under a Link and is returned when you list or fetch movements.

Attribute	Type	Description
`id`	`string`	Unique identifier for the Movement
`object`	`string`	Identifier for the type of object. Its value for `Movements` will always correspond to `movement`
`amount`	`integer`	Movement amount in the smallest currency unit. Positive values increase the account balance, and negative values decrease it.
`comment`	`string`	If the movement is a transfer, this attribute indicates the transfer comment. It can be `null`
`currency`	`string`	Currency ISO code
`description`	`string`	Description for the movement, retrieved from the institution
`pending`	`boolean`	If the movement is a check, this field indicates whether confirmation by the bank is pending. If the movement isn’t a check, this attribute is `false`
`post_date`	`string`	Movement’s accounting date, using ISO 8601
`recipient_account`	`object`	Account that received the transfer. This field is `null` when the movement is not a transfer. See the Transfer Account object table below for details.
`reference_id`	`string`	Identifier retrieved from the institution. For transfers, this value is the operation number or transaction `id`. If the bank does not provide a transaction `id`, Fintoc uses the document number. For checks, this value is the document number. It can be `null`.
`sender_account`	`object`	Account that made the transfer. This field is `null` when the movement is not a transfer. See the Transfer Account object table below for details.
`status`	`string`	Shows the status of the movement. Its values can be `confirmed`, `processing`, `reversed` and `duplicated`. The `processing` status is transitory until a movement is defined with other status.
`transaction_date`	`string`	Date and time in which the Movement was made, using ISO 8601. It can be `null`when the movement is not a transfer
`type`	`string`	Type of movement. Its values can be `transfer`, `check` or `other`

Post date and transaction dateEach movement includes post_date and transaction_date because banks use accounting dates internally. A transaction made on a Saturday can appear with Monday as its post_date. In that case, Saturday is the transaction_date, and Monday is the post_date.

Pending checksChecks take some time to be confirmed by the bank. This can take as long as 48 business hours. Pending checks can be reversed for several reasons (for example, lack of funds). Fintoc marks pending checks with the pending flag so you know that the movement isn’t yet confirmed by the bank.

Movement Status

The status field indicates the current state of a movement. Movements are initially confirmed, but may transition to other statuses as bank data is processed and validated.

Status	Description
`confirmed`	The movement has been confirmed and is considered final. This is the default status for all movements.
`processing`	The movement is being evaluated and may change to `confirmed` or `reversed`. This is a transitory status that typically resolves within 12 hours.
`reversed`	The movement was reversed by the bank. The original transaction has been undone.

The Transfer Account object (within the Movement object)

The Transfer Account object identifies the account on the other side of a transfer, and it appears in the sender_account and recipient_account fields of a Movement.

Attribute	Type	Description
`holder_id`	`string`	Account owner’s tax ID. In Chile, this value is a Chilean tax ID (RUT).
`holder_name`	`string`	Name of the owner of the account
`institution`	`object`	Institution to which the account belongs. It can be `null`
`number`	`string`	Account number. Does not include hyphens nor prefixed zeros. It can be `null`

Transfer data problemsTransfer data can sometimes be null or wrong. This can be due to the movement not being a transfer or because of matching problems with the banks statements. Always double check the transfer data before reconciliating your movements. On the other hand, movement data is always reliable. The transfer data can change up to 5 days after the movement was created.
