What is your approach to Implementing TRIs?

  •  Accept payload with TRI fields – Process all fields
  •  Accept payload with TRI fields – Ignore all fields
  •  Reject payload with TRI fields – Error back to TPP
  •  Accept payload with TRI fields – Process few fields (Provide list of accepted fields)
