For Example:

• Token entered is invalid. Please try again: This means you have entered the wrong value from the token or are using the wrong token, please try again.
  
• This batch is a duplicate of one you have recently uploaded. Please select a different batch or modify the batch you are attempting to upload: This means you have already uploaded this batch
• Mismatch on sum of credits compared to batch total provided: This error can relate to an issue with the footer line in the batch, however please check your email for more details.
• Institution ID (Header line: Character positions _ - _) is not for Heritage Finance Holdings line 1: This means that the required code of HBL has not been input in these text boxes.
• Line = 1 DE User number for current member does not match with what is in batch header (6 characters from character position _): This means that the 6 digit Direct Entry User number that was supplied to you by Heritage Finance Holdings has not been input correctly.
