Overview
head.001 (BusinessApplicationHeader) is the ISO 20022 envelope that travels in front of every Fedwire message, naming the sender, the receiver and the exact message definition that follows.
When it is used
A Fedwire message is always a pair: one AppHdr plus one Document. The header's MsgDefIdr must match the message actually carried — a mismatch makes the pair inconsistent.
