Pentagrid's riskless-pain tool helps you to review and diff pain.001 files, especially pain001 files for reoccuring monthly salary payments. Diff-like QT-GUI approach for pain.001.001 files of ISO 20022.

Short introduction

There is a lack of tools for reviewing pain.001 files. You may receive them from a payroll accounting service and upload them into your e-banking, where most of them do not support a review of the individual transactions. Pentagrid's riskless-pain tool helps you to review pain.001 files and supports you in highlighting differences between payment files, for example for salary payments for different months.
