ACWC (AcceptedWithChange) is an ISO 20022 / pacs.002 status code that means: Accepted, but with a change (usually FX or charges).
Details
The bank applied a change — typically because charges were deducted or the currency was converted at the bank's rate.
ACWC appears in the status field of a SWIFT payment status query. Ohmyfin surfaces this status when you look up a payment by UETR.
If your payment shows ACWC, the next step depends on the code: ACCC means done; ACSP / ACWP means wait; PDNG means contact the bank holding it; RJCT means request a return and start over.

If you are the beneficiary

Next step: If you expected the full amount and only a partial credit appears, contact the beneficiary bank with the UETR.
