SWIFT Sequence
A Sequence is a group of related information, delimited in most of SWIFT message
formats. However, there are a few formats, which have sequences without
delimiters. The Designer provides for creating sequences with or without delimiters.
Furthermore, the sequences with delimiters either have only the start delimiter, or
both the start and end delimiters, depending on the format’s specification. An
example of each of the three cases is as follows.
