This article describes how the ISO8583 Converter creates an XML, SQL and CSV object from an incoming TCP/IP ISO8583 binary message, and then sends it to a HTTp host as a POST, and a Mysql database, and a flat file on disk respectively. Go to ISO8583 converter to JSON for more details and download links.
Analysis of a sample ISO8583 to JSON conversion, from the Converter.

The way the ISO8583 Converter works is to immediately convert the binary ISO8583 message to a JSON
Usually customers want that neapay handles all ISO8583-related data.
That is why, by default, the converter pre-builds the response message to the acquirer (POS, ATM, mobile app, e-commerce, bank, switch).
Also, by default, the converter declines the transaction
Action code 99 (to be changed according to the functional specification)
Therefore, we compose the decline reponse transaction, convert it and and send it to the Issuer.

The converter by default uses the same names of the ISO8583 fields for the database table columns.
But it also has the capability to define custom names, within the ISO8583 definition.
Example: MessageType:{name:"MessageType",length_type:"fixed 4",data_type:"binary",base:"10",fill:"zeros",value:"",db_column:"msg_type"},
A sample conversion to SQL, with default table column names:
BIN List & Range for MasterCard, Visa, Amex, Diners, Discover, JCB, CUP
