- Repayments with a status of Risks Apply - Unauthorised. (Repayments with this status can be cancelled by the Repayment / Reallocation Authoriser using Function PRKR)

- Repayments created by Debt Management & Banking
The whole repayment will be stopped in cases where the repayment is
- For more than one AP which have been linked together
