PIX examination: records, chronology and authentication.

A contested PIX transaction needs to be understood from its records, sequence of events and information provided by parties and institutions.

Transaction elements

The examination organises operation data and their temporal relationship.

  • Date, time and amount
  • Recipient and institution
  • Available identifiers
  • Receipts and statements

Authentication and context

Access, device, channel, alert and procedure records may inform the analysis when obtained from an identified source.

Scope

The examination does not presume fraud from a dispute or promise a refund; it assesses available technical elements and their limits.

System reading

The transaction in its technical context.

The sequence helps locate which records exist, where they came from and what questions they actually allow to be answered.
