They are now supplied as `<<...>>` placeholders sourced from `application-live` Helm values at deploy time, allowing deployers to inject environment-specific credentials without modifying the connector.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
  | Payments       | `gc-obpm-payment-inbound-connector`        | 1.3.0   | Added support for ingesting standing instruction payment notifications from OBPM                     | The `gc-obpm-payment-inbound-connector` now supports ingesting standing instruction (recurring) payment notifications from OBPM and publishing them as Grand Central payment instruction events. The connector uses a single multi-queue JMS receiver to route different OBPM notification queues to separate processing pipelines.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
  | Payments       | `gc-obpm-payment-inbound-connector`        | 1.3.0   | Added support for the `jms.health.check.enabled` toggle for JMS health-check monitoring              | The `gc-obpm-payment-inbound-connector` now supports the SDK-standard `jms.health.check.enabled` property to enable or disable JMS health-check monitoring. The previous `jms.local.healthcheck.enable` property is no longer supported.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
  | Payments       | `gc-obpm-batch-payment-connector`          | 1.1.0   | Added configurable payment method code and UUID format normalization for OBPM batch payment messages | The `gc-obpm-batch-payment-connector` now supports a configurable `obpm.batch.payment.method` property to set the payment method code (`TRF`, `CHK`, or `TRA`) in `pain.001.001.03` batch payment messages sent to OBPM. Payment IDs and references containing standard UUIDs are now automatically stripped of hyphens before being sent to OBPM, ensuring compatibility with OBPM's required format.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
  | Payments       | `gc-obpm-batch-payment-connector`          | 1.1.0   | Externalized vendor-specific Azure Service Bus cloud event metadata properties to Helm values        | Azure Service Bus cloud event metadata properties (`asb.event.type`, `asb.event.source`, `asb.event.version`) are no longer hardcoded in `application.properties`. They are now supplied as `<<...>>` placeholders sourced from `application-live` Helm values at deploy time, allowing deployers to inject environment-specific values without modifying the connector.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |

Enum values of `PRIMARY` and `SECONDARY` are set deterministically and sent downstream to FIS.                                                                                                                                                                                                  |

  | Payments      | `gc-obpm-payment-inbound-connector`       | 1.3.0   | Fixed `paymentReference` not being populated in recurring payment status updates            | When an OBPM payment status update includes an instruction ID, the connector now maps both the instruction ID to `paymentTransaction.id` and the transaction reference number to `paymentTransaction.paymentReference`. Previously only one ID was populated, making it impossible to distinguish the recurring setup reference from the individual payment instance reference.                                 |
  | Payments      | `gc-obpm-batch-payment-connector`         | 1.1.0   | Fixed metadata file not being deleted after `pain.001` file creation                        | Removed the explicit logic that attempted to delete the event folder after `pain.001` file creation. Azure Blob Storage automatically removes the prefix (virtual folder) once all blobs within it are deleted, so the manual deletion step was both redundant and ineffective for the metadata blob. Both event and metadata files now get cleaned up correctly.                                               |
  | Payments      | `gc-obpm-batch-payment-inbound-connector` | 1.1.0   | Restored UUID format in batch status events before publishing to Azure Service Bus          | OBPM returns batch and payment IDs as 32-character hex strings (without hyphens). The `gc-obpm-batch-payment-inbound-connector` now restores standard UUID format in batch status update events before publishing to Azure Service Bus. The `batchReference` and `endToEndIdentification` fields in published events now reflect canonical UUID format. Non-UUID OBPM-native references pass through unchanged. |
