The 2nd remittance advice has a different IssueDate so it just used to
trigger another reconciliation cycle at the Supplier side, which is what
you want (as the previous payment was failed).

You could use the "CopyIndicator" to state this is a copy (but this is
dependent af the implementation profile)
Also you could add a Note describing the reasons for resending the
remittance (for human readers).

Depending of where the issue has been raised on the banking channel you
could have different notifications.
The could be issues before or after settlement.
The banking notification to their customer (if agreed) is dependent of
many factors and use cases.

According ISO20022 a negative payment processing can be notified using a
negative CustomerPaymentStatusReport message, a
BankToCustomerDebitCreditNotification
message ('notification') or through a BankToCustomerAccountReport and/or
BankToCustomerStatement message.

My preferred choice is the Debtor/Payer should wait a positive
"CustomerPaymentStatusReport" (see ISO20022 payment initiation) before
issuing a remittance advice.
The above report notifies the payer if the payment has been successful or
not.

Of course all of these decisions and flows are not only dependent of
ISO20022 and UBL but it take to have a clear implementation profile.

Automatic reconciliation is possible and facilitated by the external
remittance practice (UBL Remittance Advice), but it takes there are
banking notifications in place (hopefully using electronic messages like
ISO20022 provides)

Hope this helps,

Roberto
