Problem:
Pairing with multiple driving remittances.

Solution:
If both “When Pairing, always Use Remittances as the Driving Balances” and “Balance Pairing Group in Use” is selected then we must make sure it is NOT allowed to mix remittances and technical balance as included balances in the pairing process. When a balance pairing, where the driving balance is a remittance, is committed to the database, the system must check if such a mix exists, and if this is the case a new error message must occur e.g. with the following message to the user:

It is not allowed to include both technical and remittance balances in the pairing when system parameters “When Pairing, always Use Remittances as the Driving Balances” and “Balance Pairing Group in Use” both are activated.

A Bank Charge Remittance is special and will be accepted to include in combination with technical balances.

If only “When Pairing, always Use Remittances as the Driving Balances” is selected, and “Balance Pairing Group in Use” is NOT selected, then it IS allowed to mix remittances and technical balance as included balances in the pairing process when the driving balance is a remittance. But if a technical balance is the driving balance it is NOT allowed to include remittance balances (this is existing functionality).

Workaround:
Do not include remittances in the balance group.

Root Cause:
Extended flexibility implemented with new functionality, according to SICSR-14560 in 4.8.6
