Introduction
Pre-requisites
To get the most out of this manual, it is essential that you are familiar with the standard procedures regarding navigating
your way around Financial Inclusion / Accelerator, herein referred to as FI/ACL. This includes the ability to access menus,
data entry and editing, mandatory and multi‐level fields, committing details, and so on. All of these are described in
detail in the Navigation manual.

Overview
The TELLER module processes a wide variety of retail transactions. Teller is an account-based application for moving
funds. It incorporates the administration of Tills, processing of local and foreign currency transactions, cheques,
currency transfers, denomination control, passbook updates, advice production, automatic charges defaulting, rate
defaulting etc.
This manual, which assumes that most details have been setup and defined correctly, will describe more of the day-to-
day functions of the Teller as represented by the sub menus accessed via the Teller and Head Teller menu. We also
describe the set-up procedures and parameters in this document.

Teller

Parameter tables
Non-stop operation
With the NS (Non-Stop) Product installed, it is possible to process teller transactions even when the Close of Business
batch jobs are in progress. In Non-Stop mode the system operates in the following manner:

Transaction dates
When the Close of Business is initiated, the system immediately cycles the system processing date. Any transactions
entered after Close of Business is initiated will therefore carry the date defaulted based on the cycled system date.
Transactions input before the start of Close of Business, but authorised after the launch of Close of Business, will be
processed with the same transaction dates (e.g., value and exposure dates) allocated at the time of input. However, in
this scenario, transactions will not impact your institution’s books for the Close of Business running but will be included
in the following day.

Customer account balances


Customer account balances are updated and checked in the same way, whether or not the system is running the Close
of Business. In a nonstop environment, it is recommended that the Available Funds Balances be used.

Authorisation of transaction
When a transaction is authorised, a new field AUTH.DATE, records the actual system date when the authorisation took
place.

Unauthorised transactions in close of business


In a non-stop environment, the system no longer deletes, but places on hold (IHLD) unauthorised transactions.

Live records move to history


Since records may be input and/or authorised whilst the Close of Business is running, it is important that only those
transactions completed for the current Close of Business are moved into History. The system therefore only moves
transactions from the Live to History where the AUTH.DATE is less than or equal to the current system date of the Close
of Business process.
This means that under normal circumstances, the transaction file is empty at the start of each day.

Teller Parameters
Teller Parameter

Overview
The TELLER.PARAMETER file is a general parameter file for the TELLER application.
Here the category and transaction codes to be used for balancing tills, the category(s) to be used for cash, rounding
details for local currency and the vault ID are defined.

Access
AIO RBHP>>System Parameters>>General>>Teller Parameters>>Teller Parameters

Field Name Description

Over Category Specifies the category code which any cash surpluses/overages will be posted to.
When a till is in excess of the system balance the cash account of the till is
adjusted by transferring the amount from the surplus account.
The surplus account is defined using the currency, category, and teller ID, for
example USD-10200-0004.
The category must be in the range 10,000 to 19,999.

Short Category Specifies the category code which any cash shortages will be posted to.

7 Financial Inclusion Teller


Teller

When a till is short of the system balance the cash account of the till is adjusted
by transferring the amount to the shortage account.
The shortage account is defined using the currency, category, and teller ID, for
example USD-10200-0004.
The category must be in the range 10,000 to 19,999.

Tran Code Short Specifies the transaction code used for posting to the shortage account and for
debiting the cash accounts when there is an overage. This must be a valid entry
on the TRANSACTION file with the DR/CR marker set to DR

Tran Code Over Specifies the transaction code used for posting to the overage account and for
crediting the cash accounts when there is a shortage. This must be a valid entry
on the TRANSACTION file with the DR/CR mark set to CR

Tran Category Specifies the teller cash accounts category codes.


The teller cash accounts ae defined using the currency, category code and the
teller ID. Only these accounts will require reconciliation with the till balances
when the tills are closed.
The category code cannot be the same as the shortage and surplus (over)
categories.

Vault ID Specified the ID of the vault as defined on the TELLER.ID file.


The vault differs from normal teller operations in that it cannot be opened or
closed, and the only transactions allowed are transfers to and from the teller cash
accounts. Multiple vaults are allowed.

Vault Desc A description of the vault defined in Vault ID.

Autocash Category Used to identify transactions which require an interface to the autocash
dispenser.
Any transactions posted to this category will invoke the autocash interface if a
dispenser has been installed (see TELLER.ID AUTOCASH.DEVICE).

Mkt Exch Method Defined the method for calculating local equivalents and thereby deriving the
market exchange profit.
‘None’ or leaving this field blank implies that no market exchange profit will be
calculated during TELLER transactions.
The option ‘Middle’ implies that local equivalents will be calculated using middle
rates for corresponding currency markets.

Rounding Category Specifies the P&L category code where rounding differences will be posted to.
Differences caused by rounding the TELLER NET.AMOUNT to the
MIN.ROUND.AMOUNT held on the CURRENCY file will be debited or credited to
this P&L category code which must be in the range 50,000 to 69,999 and a valid
entry on the CATEGORY file.

Round Txn Code Cr Specifies the transaction code to be used when crediting the rounding difference
to the P&L.

Round Txn Code Dr Specifies the transaction code to be used when debiting the rounding difference
to the P&L.

Modify Charge Code This field contains the ID of a FT.CHARGE.TYPE or FT.COMMISSION.TYPE which
should be used when the Teller needs to modify the standard charges that are
applicable when entering multi-line deals.

Version Defines a valid VERSION record. This field together with the FINISH ROUTINE
facilitates local customisation and validation.
When the VERSION entered in this field is used in a multi-line deal and the ‘finish’
option is completed, the subroutine specified in FINISH.ROUTINE is run.

Finish Routine This field together with the VERSION field facilitates local customisation and
validation. It must be a valid record in the PGM.FILE and a subroutine type.

Auto Next For multiline teller deals it is possible to set a default so that when the Teller
finishes one leg of a multiline deal, the system automatically starts a new leg or
prompts each time to create a new or finish. Options are ‘Yes’, ‘No’ or blank. ‘No’
and blank will prompt the teller each time.

Rate Specifies whether there should be an option to specify the rate for same currency
deals, options are:
• Not allowed
• Allowed with override
• Allowed but with a variance override
Split Charge Entries This field is used to split the charges and tax amounts as separate entries. From
the credit or debit transaction amount of the account to which the charges and
tax are attached.
If ‘YES’ is selected in this field the system will generate separate accounting
entries for the charges and taxes attached to the credit or debit transaction,
instead of netting them.
If ‘YES’ is not selected and the field is left blank, the charge/tax amount will be
adjusted with the respective debit or credit transaction and accounting entry will
be raised for the net amount only.
NOTE: This feature is not available for transactions done through the Multi-line
Teller.

Multi Tills Options in this field are ‘Yes’ or blank.


If ‘Yes’ the Max Tills field is mandatory and multi-tills are permitted for all the
users.

Max Tills When multi-tills has been set to ‘Yes’ then the number of tills has to be entered,
for example 2 means that the user can have a maximum of 2 till open at any
point in time.

D Slip Finish This field determines when the deal slip is to be printed in a multiline teller
transaction, options are ‘Yes’ or null. ‘Yes’ will result in dealslips being produced
at the end of the multiline transactions, while ‘null’ will generate a dealslip after
each line.

Teller

Till Bal Auth Err When the till account goes into credit balance at the time of authorisation of a
TELLER transaction, an error message will be raised based on the setting in this
field. If set to ‘Yes’, an error message ‘CREDIT TILL CLOSING BALANCE’ is raised.

Check Stock Amt When side 1 of a Teller transaction is multi-valued, and ‘Yes’ has been selected,
then this field indicates which denomination has to be checked against the total
denomination units in the account for which the STOCK.CONTROL.TYPE has
been set.
When this field is ‘null’, the total denomination units in the Teller transaction will
be checked against the total transaction amount.

Stock Upd ‘Yes’ selected in this field indicates if denomination units entered in the TELLER.ID
during till closure are to be treated as final stock and overwrite the
TT.STOCK.CONTROL.
If the value is ‘null’ an override will be raised to the extent of shortages or
surpluses and the balancing entry will be generated, but the TT.STOCK.CONTROL
is not updated.

Reprint Mode Not currently supported.

TFS Parameter
The Teller Financial Services (TFS) application allows the user to enter multiple financial transactions on the same
screen and commit them all as one transaction.

Overview
The TFS application is the main transaction front end and captures user input data and creates a TELLER or FT or a DC
Batch in the back end.
TFS.PARAMETER is the main parameter file, where configuration of a number of features is done, namely:
• Interface parameters:
How to interface to TELLER or FT or DC allowing definitions of OFS Version to be used, the API that builds
the OFS body etc.
(Note: This is a technical parameter and unless there is any financial institution specific development on this
suite, the setup of these fields will need to adopt to standard configuration)
• Consolidation parameters:
If the user input transactions need to be consolidated to create one or fewer postings on the Customer
Account, and if so, necessary parameters for Consolidation
• Usability parameters:
To improve user friendliness depending on the preferences of the financial institution
• Currency conversion parameters:
Where the financial institution defines their preferences on how the rates should be arrived depending on
the type of transaction involved and, when market exchange profit should be calculated
• Security parameters:
To prevent fraud
• Transaction limit parameters:
To apply appropriate controls on users and their transaction limits.
Note: any change to the parameters requires a re-start of the Temenos Open Connectivity Framework

Access

Teller

Field Name Description

Exposure Method TFS supports cheques deposits in one of two methods:


1. Using the cheque collection process
2. Using the exposure ladder functionality – when the cheque collection is not
handled within IBS and the requirement is only to be able to apply a forward
date on the availability of the deposited amount
In the case of option 2 above, the exposure ladder can either be translated
into exposure ladder in TELLER or creating AC.LOCKED.EVENTS for each
exposure split dates in the ladder. This field allows the definition of how the
system should process the exposure ladder.

AML Details The transaction front end supports the capture of customer details:
1. For an existing customer (the customer number suffices)
2. For walk-in customers who do not have accounts on IBS, additional
details as defined by the local/regional regulatory requirements, for
example Legal ID, Legal Document Name, Issuing Authority, document
issue and expiry date can be recorded.
This field indicates whether the system should treat the data as information
purposes only or whether real validation is to be done.
If this field is set to VALIDATION, then the expiry date is validated and if the
document has expired, an override is generated.
It should be noted that this feature does not extend to automatically do black-list
checking or other real-time interface capability to an AML solution.

11 Financial Inclusion Teller


Teller

AML Lookup The same set of AML fields in CUSTOMER are used in TFS. There are a few lookup
tables used for attributes such as Legal Document, Issuing Authority and
Communication Type.
These EB.LOOKUP tables are already setup for use when capturing a CUSTOMER
record.
This field indicates whether TFS should use the same lookup tables defined for
customer creation or if there are local lookup tables set up.

These fields form part of the Consolidation Parameters. If this field is set to ENABLE, then TFS will
combine all the user input transactions on a single TFS screen and create that as a single transaction
to the account specified in the PRIMARY.ACCOUNT field.

Consolidation TFS achieves this by using a temporary Washthrough Account (a placeholder) on


the input legs and eventually when the user indicates that the transactions have
all been entered, it creates one or more consolidated legs between the
Washthrough Account and the account specified in the PRIMARY.ACCOUNT field.
The consolidated Leg is really just another TFS leg corresponding to a TELLER
transaction.

Consol Method This field is where we define if the combined transactions should be ‘NET’ –
consolidate all debits and credits or ‘GROSS’ – consolidate all debits and
consolidate all credits

Consol Level Addon The default consolidation level is the VALUE.DATE of the individual user input TFS
transactions. Should there be a need to combine transactions using additional
attributes, these can be set in this field.

Consol Washthru This field holds the CATEGORY code of the Washthrough Account used by TFS on
user input legs

Consol Sort Code When a cheque deposit with a float and a cash deposit are consolidated, a default
float (with same day availability) needs to be applied for the cash portion of the
consolidated amount.
This field holds the key to the BC.SORT.CODE and EXP.DATE.PRD should be left
blank.

Consol TFS Txn When multiple TFS transactions are combined to create a consolidated
transaction, the system needs a TFS.TRANSACTION type to effect that
consolidated transaction.
This field holds the key to the TFS.TRANSACTION that will be used in consolidated
transactions.

Consol Amt Zero When the Consolidation Method is set to ‘Net’, it is possible that the resultant
amount is 0. This field is used to specify the Financial Institution’s preference on
what the system should do on such cases.
Default value: FORCE GROSS, the system will force the consolidation method to
be Gross, all debits and all credits together.
Other options are:
IGNORE.CONSOL.LEG, the system will ignore the consolidated leg that has the
amount as 0 - In other words, there will not be any entry on the customer account
at all.

12 Financial Inclusion Teller


Teller

UNDO.CONSOLIDATION, then the consolidation will be undone and each user


input leg will be recorded on the customer account. For example,
if there are 4 credit transactions and 2 debit transactions, and the net amount
is 0, then
if set to FORCE.GROSS there will be 2 entries on the customer’s account
if set to IGNORE.CONSOL.LEG, there will be no entries on the customer’s account
if set to UNDO.CONSOLIDATION, there will be 6 entries on the customer’s
account.

Consol Chg TFS Txn If multiple transactions are combined to create one or more consolidated
transactions for the Primary Account, it may be necessary to calculate a charge
based on the combination of those transactions.
Using the information provided, the system builds a separate TFS transaction leg.
This field is used to define the TFS.TRANSACTION code that needs to be used for
this Charge Transaction.

Consol Chg API If multiple transactions are combined to create one or more consolidated
transactions for the Primary Account, it may be necessary to calculate a charge
based on the combination of those transactions.
In such cases, a local API can be written to meet the requirements and attach to
this field.
Whenever Consolidation of transactions takes place, TFS will invoke this API and
expect it to return the:
1. PL Category (optional if Charge Code is returned)
2. Charge code (Key to FT.CHARGE.TYPE, optional if PL Category is
returned)
3. Charge Account
4. Charge Currency
5. Charge Amount
This information is used to build a separate TFS transaction leg.

Consol Narr API TFS automatically populates the statement narrative for the consolidated
transaction based on the user input legs that were combined to create that
consolidated transaction.
If there is a need to build the narrative with a specific logic, a local API can be
written and attached to this field.
Whenever Consolidation is done, TFS will invoke this API and expect the narrative
to be populated for the consolidated transaction.

End of Consolidation parameter fields.

These fields form part of the Usability Parameters

Hotfields Depending on the preferred workflow and user preferences, the Financial
Institution may select to adopt one of two workflows:
1. Capture all information and finally submit the request. The system
will validate all information in one go, return any errors, overrides
and expand denomination fields as applicable and present the
screen to the user

13 Financial Inclusion Teller


Teller

2. Make certain fields as requiring validation on input – so any input


to these fields will immediately send a request for validation, for
example expansion of denomination fields.
Txn Lookup Typically, the lookups can be a Combobox or a drop-down enquiry. The
Combobox allows for easier input and facilitates better keyboard navigation
without the use of a mouse.
This field defines the preferences for the lookup for the TRANSACTION field in TFS.

Auto Expand Legs When launching TFS, the user will be required to expand the multi-value set to
record multiple transactions. To enable faster input, it is possible to auto-expand
the multi-value sets to a predefined number so that the user does not have to
waste time on the task.

Version This field and the and the associated INCLUDE.TXN allow filtering of the transaction
types that can be used in this version, which must be a valid VERSION and must
be for the TFS application.

Include Txn Transactions allowed in the TFS must be a valid record on TFS.TRANSACTION and
is mandatory when if the associated VERSION is defined.
In this example, the teller is able to process Deposits in local and foreign
currency, Cash withdrawals in local and foreign currency, Loan Repayments,
Account Transfers and Cheque Withdrawals all on the same (one) screen.

End of Usability Tables

These fields form part of the Currency Conversion Parameters.

Txn Ccy to Dr Ccy The CURRENCY field in TFS is the Currency of the transaction itself and need not be
either the Debit or Credit Currency.
A hypothetical example would be a customer wanting to transfer USD100 from
their GBP account to their EUR account. This means that there is a 3 rd currency
involved.
The rate preferences and how the Debit Currency equivalent should be arrived
at from the Transaction Currency is defined in this field.

Mkt Exch Profit When processing cross currency transaction, the TELLER application calculates
the market exchange profit. This field sets the marker on whether the market
exchange profit should be calculated.
The value in this field will be overridden by the setup in the corresponding field
in TFS.TRANSACTION. If not defined in TFS.TRANSACTION, then the value is taken
from this parameter.
End of Currency Conversion Parameters.

These fields form part of the Interface Parameters.

OFS Source This field holds the OFS.SOURCE that should be used to talk to the underlying
applications; FT, TT or DC

Interface To Define the underlying modules that TFS can interface to (FT, TT and DC).

Interface API TFS builds the OFS Body for the underlying module during run-time. Should there
be a need to customise the OFS Body, for example add some LRFs that are
attached to TFS that need to be passed along to TELLER, it is possible to develop
a local API and attach it here in TFS.PARAMETER.
TFS will invoke this API and respect the body returned by this local routine and
pass it along to OFS. The local routine must be a valid entry on EB.API

OFS Version This field holds the VERSION that needs to be used when interfacing with the
underlying application defined in the associated INTERFACE.TO field.
The value in this field will be overridden by the setup in the corresponding field
in TFS.TRANSACTION. If not setup at TFS.TRANSACTION level, then the value from
this parameter will be used.

Txn Rev Dc Cr When trying to reverse a TFS leg which has the underlying TELLER or
FUNDS.TRANSFER record in History, TFS would undo the entries by creating
offsetting DATA.CAPTURE transactions.
It will attempt to use the same TRANSACTION codes as in the accounting entries
used by the original underlying TELLER or FUNDS.TRANSFER albeit with the
REVERSAL.MARK in DC set to Y. However, if these transaction codes are not enabled
for use in DATA.CAPTURE (the DATA.CAPTURE field in the TRANSACTION table must
be set to Y), then it needs a default alternate code that it can use for the Credit
Reversal Entry.

Txn Rev Dc Dr When trying to reverse a TFS leg which has the underlying TELLER or
FUNDS.TRANSFER record in History, TFS would undo the entries by creating
offsetting DATA.CAPTURE transactions.
It will attempt to use the same TRANSACTION codes as in the accounting entries
used by the original underlying TELLER or FUNDS.TRANSFER albeit with the
REVERSAL.MARK in DC set to Y. However, if these transaction codes are not enabled
for use in DATA.CAPTURE (the DATA.CAPTURE field in the TRANSACTION table must
be set to Y), then it needs a default alternate code that it can use for the Debit
Reversal Entry.

Dc Rev On Rev Define whether the REVERSAL.MARKER field in DATA.CAPTURE should be retained or
not when trying to Reverse a DC Transaction which by itself was input to Reverse
another Underlying Transaction.
Assume that a TFS transaction corresponds to a TELLER or FT transaction as the
underlying. And that underlying transaction is now in History. If there is a need to
reverse that transaction, TFS automatically creates Offsetting DC transactions
because TELLER does not allow reversal of a transaction in History and only
partially allows reversal of a transaction in History.
In these offsetting DC transactions, the REVERSAL.MARK would be set to R.
Now, if this DC transaction needs to be reversed (may be because the reversal
was done by mistake and needs to be undone), the system will create a ‘Reverse
on Reverse DC’ transaction to offset the original DC transaction.

End of DATA.CAPTURE related parameters.

The fields form part of the Transaction Limit parameters.

Transaction Limit Using this feature, a Financial Institution can put in proper controls on large value
transactions and mandate a supervisor approval for transactions that breach the
pre-specified limit.
In TFS, where there may be multiple legs, it is possible to validate the transaction
amount for each of the User input legs or for the 'Consolidated' legs.

Lcy Limit A limit specified here will be treated as in Local Currency. Typically, the fields
LIMIT.CCY and CCY.LIMIT will be used to specify the transaction limits by Currency.

These fields form part of the Miscellaneous Parameters.

Reset Fields If, in a TFS Transaction, while inputting one of the Legs, the user changes the
TRANSACTION type after inputting other details of that Leg, this field allows us to
define which of the associated field in that Leg should be cleared.
Examples of this would be instead of selecting Cash Deposit, the user might have
selected the Cash withdrawal code and entered currency and amount. If this field
does not include AMOUNT and CURRENCY but other fields of the Leg, changing
this to Cash Withdrawal will clear out all fields of that Leg except for AMOUNT
and CURRENCY.

Teller Transaction

Overview
The system will already be set up with a number of TELLER.TRANSACTION records (cash/cheque deposit, foreign
currency buy/sell) but different types can be added using the TELLER.TRANSACTION file.
To add a new transaction type the system will require a definition of the defaults to apply when generating the entries
for the transaction. The defaults are TRANSACTION codes, CATEGORY & department codes, valid currencies, charges,
and so on.
Although the system processes many different types of transactions, the basic mechanism for balancing entries,
defaulting rates and charges is the same. Hence, all transactions are processed by the one application (TELLER) but the
screen prompts can be varied by tailored VERSION with specific defaults being controlled by a TELLER.TRANSACTION.
Each transaction prepares two balancing accounting entries (more when charges are present).
Invariably one side will be the 'customer' (side 1) and the balancing entry will be the teller cash account (side 2), that
is, a simple cash deposit will entail a credit to the CUSTOMER ACCOUNT and a debit to the teller cash ACCOUNT.
In the TELLER system the cash that is held at a teller's position is recorded in an internal ACCOUNT defined as:
CURRENCY-CASH CATEGORY- TELLER ID
For example USD-10000-0012
The cash CATEGORY is specified in the TELLER.PARAMETER file. It is the balance of these ACCOUNT records which will
be reconciled with the actual cash when the till is closed.
Cheques should be posted directly to collection accounts and not held by teller (defined in TELLER.TRANSACTION). This
allows for easy reconciliation of funds as each cheque is recorded as a separate entry to this ACCOUNT.
It is possible to specify an exposure date on the cheque deposit, which is used to decide when the funds credited will
be updated to the cleared balance on the ACCOUNT record. It is also possible to clear funds on a single teller transaction
on multiple dates. This information is entered in the exposure date ladder fields (EXP.SPLIT.DATE & EXP.SPLIT.AMT).
Although the splitting information can be entered manually, they may also be made to default using either the
TRANSACTION record or the BC.SORT.CODE record. Refer to Local Clearing & System Table for further information on
setting up exposure date splitting defaults.
It is also possible to default the value date on the credit side by specifying a sort code that points to a BC.SORT.CODE
record set up with a default value date period.

Split Chrg Entries This field is used to split the charges and tax amounts as separate entries. From
the credit or debit transaction amount of the account to which the charges and
tax are attached.
If ‘YES’ is selected in this field the system will generate separate accounting
entries for the charges and taxes attached to the credit or debit transaction,
instead of netting them.
If ‘YES’ is not selected and the field is left blank, the charge/tax amount will be
adjusted with the respective debit or credit transaction and accounting entry will
be raised for the net amount only.
This feature is not available for transactions done through the Multi-line Teller.

Print Advice Defines if the transaction should produce an advice by default. The advice itself
is defined in ADVICE.VERSION and is produced when the TELLER

Teller Transfer This specifies whether this transaction is a Teller Transfer, in which case both
accounts must be internal.

Cust Ac Transfer This specifies whether this transaction is a Customer Transfer, in which case both
accounts must be a customer account and the TELLER transaction will ask for an
override if the transaction is between different customers.

Verify Signature Specifies whether this transaction will display the customer’s signature on input
of the account number. If ‘YES’ is selected, the signature of the debit account is
displayed when the SIG.HOT.KEY is depressed. If the signature is not displayed
and VERIFY.SIGNATURE is ‘YES’ then an override is required. This is only applicable
when the SIGNATURE system is installed.
NOTE: this is only applicable to Desktop (old releases) and not Browser UI.

Charge Code This field defines the charge, commission or tax codes to apply to this transaction.
NOTE: charges should not be collected for child transactions of a TFS entry.
If charges, commissions and/or tax is to be applied to this teller transaction, then
the relevant codes should be entered here. The charge amounts, percentages,
etc. are defined in FT.CHARGE.TYPE, FT.COMMISSION.TYPE and TAX.
The code entered will be checked against each file consecutively.

NOTE: With the introduction of Multi Line Teller Transactions, it is


required that ACCOUNT.1 is always the CUSTOMER account.
Bear this in mind when creating VERSIONS.

Other Information
Other information pertaining to Teller configuration:

Accounts
The cash account is treated as an internal account and the CATEGORY codes are specified in TELLER.PARAMETER (cash
account and over/short categories) and in TELLER.TRANSACTION for the cheque collection accounts.

Once the CATEGORY codes have been entered, the internal accounts need to be opened (in each currency of the
organisation). The system will open the accounts if they are not created by the time a financial entry is posted, always
ensuring that both debit and credit entries are passed, balancing the books.

Refer to the Accounts User Guide for information on the opening of accounts.

Transaction Codes
The Transaction Table contains information about all the Transaction Codes which may be used within Transact. For
each Application a range of Transaction codes has been assigned to facilitate their recognition and identification
within Transact. The Transaction codes contain and identify important processing conditions which will be defaulted
by the Applications if no other input has been entered at the transaction level. The main identifying details of the
Transaction Code can be summarised as follows:
Reference number identification
In many cases, the System will be required to capture a reference number either to print or for verification against the
database. This will be the case, when cheques are issued by customers on their account with the Bank.
It will be important to verify these cheques, when presented for payment, against the "stop payment" list and to
receive a stop payment warning as soon as the transaction is processed. By defining the appropriate details in this
table, this control will be completely automated.
Transaction Charges
For each Transaction Code it is also possible to define, if required, different types of charges applicable to the specific
Transaction. Many banks, for example, charge their customers for services such as standing orders, use of cash
dispensers, issuance of cheques, etc. This table will allow identification of these charges at the Transaction Type level.
Any of these charges can then be processed by the Interest and Charge System, possibly depending on the minimum
balance in the account.
Default Value and Exposure date
As a further facility, this table will allow the definition of the default Value Date and Exposure Date conditions for
each Transaction Code. This will prevent the operator from having to key the Value Date and Exposure Date
repeatedly on transactions where a default can be applied.
MIS Information
A unit cost can also be associated with each Transaction Code. This will allow Customer and Account profitability to
be produced considering not only the earnings detained from the customer but also the cost included in providing
the services to customers.
The other facilities available in this table are detailed within the Field descriptions.
The TRANSACTION.CHARGE table (ref: ACCOUNT) must be set up before any charge can be defined in a Transaction
Code.
For each Transaction Code, the corresponding Narrative to be printed on the statement of the Account must be
defined in the DELIVERY TRANSLATION table (DE.TRANSLATION). A clear and precise Narrative will eliminate the
need to send additional advices to support statement entries.
Combining Entries.
The way that Transact combines accounting entries is defined in this table. It is possible to define rules for various
categories, products, and transaction code.
For example, it is possible to specify a transaction code that will be used as the combined transaction code for all
Loans contracts using a specific transaction code.

Data Capture Defines is this Transaction code may be used in the DATA.CAPTURE application,
or may only be used in entries generated automatically by other transaction
processing applications. If left blank, it cannot be used by the DATA.CAPTURE
application

Cheque Ind Specifies whether the cheque number is mandatory for entries entered via the
DATA.CAPTURE application, using this transaction code.
The purpose of this field is two-fold:
• For forcing the user to enter a cheque number, the system can then
verify the PAYMENT.STOP file (ref: Data Capture) and ascertain that
no stop has been placed on the cheque
• Entering ‘Y’ will ensure that the cheque number is available for
printing on the customer account statement which will allow easy
reconciliation
Mandatory Ref No Specifies whether the inclusion of a Reference Number is to be mandatory for
Transactions input via DATA.CAPTURE when using this Transaction code.

Debit Credit Ind Indicates if the Transaction code is to be used for Debit or Credit entries. The use
of this indicator will mainly be used by core applications such as DATA.CAPTURE.
This information is used by the system to verify the sign of the Transaction. Once
the Transaction code has been authorised, the value of this field cannot be
changed. For other applications it will be disregarded because all the
bookkeeping entries are generated automatically by each Transaction
Processing Application.

Default Value Date Identifies for the DATA.CAPTURE Application, the Default Value Date which will
be assigned to all transactions where this Transaction code has been defined.
This Default Value Date can always be overridden by entering the Value Date
directly at transaction level.

Turnover Charge Indicates whether the Transactions using this Transaction code are to be included
in the calculation of the Debit/Credit Turnover or Number of Debits/Credits
Charge
This field, at the Transaction code level, will allow the user to eliminate any
Transaction Code from the Turnover Charge calculation

Swift Narrative Specifies the SWIFT description of the Transaction.


This is the SWIFT narrative that corresponds with the Transaction code and must
conform to the rules specified in the SWIFT User Handbook. Since these rules
may be changed from time to time, it is the user’s responsibility to ensure valid
codes are entered
Please see the Help Text for Rules to be followed

Initiation Specifies who is responsible for initiating the Transaction.


This field specifies whether this Transaction is initiated automatically by the
System, by the Bank of by the Customer. This information is then used to
determine which Transaction details fields should be updated on the ACCOUNT
file, ensuring that exact details are maintained for all Transactions on the

generated Transaction Reference.

Passbooks
Updating Passbooks (Definition)
It is possible to issue passbooks instead of statements to accounts enabled for passbook printing (duly defined
ACCOUNT.CLASS as SAVINGS). For such accounts, passbook field should be set as YES in the respective account record.
The TELLER.PASSBOOK application is set up for designing the passbook and ATTRIBUTE field to link printer attribute. The
PASSBOOK.DEVICE field of the TELLER.ID application indicates which printer device is connected to this teller.

When an entry is passed across a passbook account from any application, the details are recorded and the system
updates the passbook when it is presented. The layout of the passbook must be defined in the TELLER.PASSBOOK file.
This describes the physical dimensions of the book in addition to 'header' type information, for example, customer
name and address, and positions of the debit/credit columns. In fact, the entire content of the passbook is user
definable through the TELLER.PASSBOOK application.

To set up the system for passbook printing, do the following:


1. Define the TELLER.PASSBOOK format.
2. Define the 'device' on the appropriate TELLER.ID record.
3. Ensure that the Terminal can support a local print function.
4. Sets up any printer attributes.

TELLER.PASSBOOK
The SYSTEM record definition has the client details printed when a new book is issued (NEW), the balance carried
forward as the first line of each page (FIRST) and the entries themselves on each detail line (LINE). It also defines the
dimensions of the passbook and any printer attributes that should be downloaded when the device is initiated.

Assigning a Passbook device to a specific Teller using TELLER.ID


To inform the system that the Teller has access to a passbook device, the device name is entered on the TELLER.ID
record. The device name is used to form the key to the PRINTER.ATTRIBUTES file, which is made up from
PASSBOOK.DEVICE and the attributes, defined on the TELLER.PASSBOOK record in the ATTRIBUTE field.

Updating Passbooks (Processing)


Once the Teller transaction is committed, the application TT.PASSBOOK.PRINT is launched. The ID of the record is the
Account Number that needs to be printed for. This application displays the page and line of the passbook to be printed
and the outstanding entries to print. The Teller can modify the page, line no, and instruct that a new passbook be
printed by using the fields on this application. If the teller does not wish to print the passbook at this time then they can
simply set the PRINT.PASSBOOK field to NO and commit. Print logic is not invoked this time.

Once the Teller agrees with the PAGE.NO, LINE.NO and NEW.PASSBOOK fields, they should commit the record. Also, note if
deal slip printing is configured, then this can also be launched in a separate window.

Once this is committed, two things happen:


1. A new window containing the Passbook Print data appears.
2. The TT.PASSBOOK.PRINT application displays a confirmation message.

27 Financial Inclusion Teller

Passbook Print Window


In order print this, it is required to right click this window and select print; then the passbook printer needs to be
selected. The system requests confirmation that the passbook printed correctly. The Teller must now reply YES or NO.
If NO, then the user is taken back to the initial TT.PASSBOOK.PRINT screen.

Updating Passbooks (Reprinting)


When the passbook is not available at the time when the transaction is processed, this option is used to print passbook
entries at any time for an account using the application TELLER.PASSBOOK.REPRINT. Besides, the account number the
period for which the passbook to be printed should be specified in the fields START DATE and END DATE as shown below.

Multi tills
The feature of Multi Tills (or Cash Box) enables a single user to have more than one TELLER.ID depending on the set up
enunciated in the application TELLER.PARAMETER. Further, Multi Tills contain a limited amount of cash transferred from
the vault. Whenever there is a shortage of cash, instead of drawing from the safe, cash is transferred from the MULTI
TILLS. In short, we can call the Multi Tills an intermediary between the vault and the till. The set up features of Multi
Tills in TELLER.PARAMETER are detailed below:

Option Description

Multi.Tills Permitted values are (1) Yes and (2) Null.


If Yes, the “Max. Tills” field is a mandatory input.

33 Financial Inclusion Teller


Teller

Multi Tills functionality – i.e. two or more tills for a user is made available only if
the flag is set to ‘YES’ in this field.
If NULL’, the usual teller validations will be carried out, i.e. one user can have only
one ‘TILL’ open at a time.

Max Tills Any numeric between 1 and 99 may be input.


When input, it represents the number of tills a user can keep open at any given
time when dealing with the Multi Tills facility.
The input in this field may be changed at any time.
Once changed, the new input will be effective and earlier validations will become
null and void. For example, if the value in this field is’3’ and then changed to’2’,
any intention to open more than 2 tills subsequently will be met with the error
message “Other tills must be closed.”

The TELLER.ID application is used to attach more than one till for the purposes of Multi Tills. Adequate logic has been
built to permit more than one teller ID per user only if the MULTI.TILLS is set to ’YES’ or raise an error in case this field is
set to ‘NULL’.

Concept of linked tills


Two fields are available in TELLER.ID application. These are:

Option Description

LINKED.TILLS This field accepts any valid TELLER.ID.


The ID that is entered here should belong to the same user or the system
will raise an error.
The concept of Linked Tills is introduced in Multi Tills to facilitate:
1. Linking two or more tills belonging to a particular user.
2. Automatic opening of the linked tills when the Master Till is
opened.

The closure of tills is done individually.

TILL.TRANSFER.ONLY This field accepts either ‘YES’ or ‘NULL’


If ‘YES’, the TELLER.ID can do only “till to till transfers”.
If a transaction other than “till to till transfers” is entered, the system will
raise an error.

Currency
Overview
This table contains all details of each individual CURRENCY, for example, name of the CURRENCY, number of decimal
places together with other information such as the Buy and Sell Rates
IBS caters for both Middle rate and Buy/Sell Rate environments therefore when installing the System the User must
specify, in the COMPANY record, which method is to be adopted. Regardless of which rates are entered, however, both
Middle and Buy/Sell Rates are used in calculations e.g.
Middle Rate is used for monitoring of rate variances.
Buy/Sell Rates are used (in conjunction with spreads) to calculate Treasury/Customer rates.
Automatically, when the Middle Rate and the Default Spread are entered, the Buy/Sell Rates are calculated and
when Buy/Sell Rates are input the Middle Rate and the Default spread will be calculated by the System.
A further rate - REVAL RATE - may be used to indicate the rate to be used for Asset and Liabilities revaluation. This field
is optional, and if present overrides the Middle Rate when calculating Asset and Liabilities.
The use of the ISO Currency Codes is recommended as a standard for the ID of this table although an additional numeric

This field defines the number of working days’ notice, in advance of the Value
Date, that a payment or a receive message must be sent by the DELIVERY
application.
‘0’ represents same day, while 1 to 10 represent the actual number of working
days’ notice.
It is used by applications to determine the latest date on which a remittance
instruction must be dispatched (i.e. passed to DELIVERY).

Days Forward Defines the number of working days forward, from the Run date, to commence
detailed Nostro reporting.
The Nostro cash position summaries (by Currency) project the balances for 5
consecutive working days.

Interest Day Basis Defines for each Currency the default calculation basis for interest calculation
purposes. It is possible to set the interest basis at contract or record level, the
absence of a valid user input will mean that the value from the appropriate
CURRENCY record will be used.

Currency Market Identifies to which market the following rates apply in those countries where
more than one market exists to determine the exchange rates of foreign
currencies.
All Transaction Processing Applications contain a data element Currency Market
and any input made in this field will be checked against this table to derive or
verify the appropriate exchange rate of the transaction. The exchange rates
applicable to the Market 1 will always be defaulted if no other input has been
done.
For the local currency, input in this FIELD will also be allowed to permit the user
to use, if required, the fields Quotation Suspense and Negotiable Amount. These
are the only 2 fields of the association which will be allowed for the local
currency. A typical example is Belgium where foreign currencies are quoted on
the Convertible/Regular market and also on the Financial/Free market. Different
sets of exchange rates will exist according to these two markets and this explains
the reason and the purpose of this field.
It is possible to define up to nine different markets in the CURRENCY table and
consequently for each foreign currency up to nine different sets of exchange
rates. The system will always require at least one set of rates, i.e. to define the
exchange rates applicable to Market 1 which will be the default currency Market
used by all Transaction processing applications.
NOTE: the CURRENCY.MARKET field can also be used within the concept of notional
market, i.e. to define different sets of exchange rates according to the type of
product handled. For example one set of rates for Notes transactions, another for
Travellers Cheques, another for transfer transactions, etc.

Mid Reval Rate Specifies the Market Middle Rate for this Currency market. In a Middle Rate
installation this rate must be input whereas in a Buy/Sell environment this rate is
calculated automatically and therefore cannot be input.
When installing IBS, the user must decide which Currency environment is to be
adopted locally. The COMPANY record contains a field which specifies whether a
MIDDLE RATE or a BUY/SELL RATE system is to be used.

This market middle rate will be the default rate used by the revaluation routine
to revalue the bank books and the SPOT foreign exchange contracts. All other
revaluation types may use the REVAL.RATE for revaluation calculations except for
rebate revaluations which continue to use this field.

Default Spread Indicates the amount to be added to/ subtracted from MID.REVAL.RATE to obtain
the Market Buy/Sell Rates.

Buy Rate Indicates the Market Buy Rate. Used as the base for calculating (default) rates for
Customer Transactions (amounts less than the negotiable amount). In a Buy/Sell
installation, this Rate must be entered, whereas in a Middle Rate environment,
this Rate is calculated automatically and therefore cannot be entered.
When installing IBS, the user must decide which Currency environment is to be
adopted locally. The COMPANY record contains a field which specifies whether a
MIDDLE RATE or a BUY/SELL RATE system is to be used.

Sell Rate Indicates the Market Sell Rate. Used as a base for calculating (default) rates for
Customer Transactions (amounts less than the negotiable amount). In a Buy/Sell
installation this Rate must be entered whereas in a Middle Rate environment this
Rate is calculated automatically and therefore cannot be entered.
When installing IBS, the user must decide which Currency environment is to be
adopted locally. The COMPANY record contains a field which specifies whether a
MIDDLE RATE or a BUY/SELL RATE system is to be used.

Negotiable Amt The purpose of this field is to define a maximum amount for which the Rates
specified in this record can be used without reference to the dealers/treasury.
The exchange rate on transactions, below the specified value, need not be
entered. Based on the applicable Rates, Spreads and Condition tables, the System
will apply the appropriate rate, and calculate the local currency equivalent.
Transactions which exceed the amount specified, should be booked with the
dealers/treasury, and the rate obtained should be entered. Any rate input will be
treated as the Treasury rate, and for this reason only the Customer Medium
Spread will be added/subtracted to/from it to determine the Customer Buy/Sell
rate.
When transactions exceed the negotiable amount, the system still allows the
defaulting of the rates applicable to smaller transactions but in this case an
override will be required to force the transaction with the existing rates.

Min Round Type The type of rounding to be applied to non-cash transactions in this currency.

Cash Round Type The type of rounding to be applied to cash transactions in this currency.

Precious Metal Identifies whether this currency is a precious metal.

Command Line>>CURRENCY.PARAM

Overview
This table contains the common details for each individual CURRENCY. These details are the Numeric Currency Code,
Currency Name, Number of Decimal Places and the Interest Basis.
This table is used to ensure that the same numeric code and number of decimals are used each CURRENCY file. In a
multi company environment there can be more than one CURRENCY file.
The CURRENCY name and Interest basis maybe changed at an individual CURRENCY file level. The numeric CURRENCY
code can only be changed on the CURRENCY.PARAM file.

NOTE: Once a record has been authorised the number of decimal places cannot be changed

Field Name Description

Numeric Ccy Code Specifies the numeric code which corresponds to the alpha ID. This code must
be unique and provides an alternative means of referencing the Currency details
in Transact Applications.

Ccy Name Identifies the name of the Currency and will be used for on-line enrichments in
any field where the Currency alpha or numeric code has been input.

No of Decimals Defines the Number of Decimal places of the Currency.

Interest Day Basis Defines for each Currency the default calculation basis for interest calculation
purposes. It is possible to set the interest basis at contract or record level, the
absence of a valid user input will mean that the value from the appropriate
CURRENCY record will be used.

Precious Metal Identifies whether this currency is a precious metal.

Equivalent Ccys Specifies a currency that is equivalent to the currency defined in the
CURRENCY.CODE field.

A relationship must be established to enable currencies to be used as interest or


charge currencies on any accounts set-up for the main currency.
This field will be used as a default on the CURRENCY table.

Country Code Identifies the country to which the currency defined in field CURRENCY.CODE
belongs to.

Base Ccy Rank Indicates whether a currency should always be the base currency for currency
conversions in the event that a base currency has not been supplied.

Commission
Overview
This table defines the conditions relating to all types of commission used by financial transactions within the FI/ACL.
Commission can be defined as a flat amount or as one that varies according to the amount transferred. In this latter
case different percentages can be defined for different LEVELS or BANDS of transfer amounts. Minimum and
maximum commissions can be specified for each BAND or LEVEL together with overall minimum and/or maximum
commission charges. Commissions in local currency must be entered and special foreign currency commissions can
also be defined if required.
The currency codes specified in this table in association with the percentage or the amount of charges will always refer
to the currency of the transfer, i.e. the debit currency for the inward payments and the credit currency for all other types
of payment. As a minimum, the local currency must be specified and any currency which has not been defined will then
default to these conditions and create the equivalent amount based on the appropriate rate as held on the CURRENCY
file.
It is also possible to enter future dated FT.COMMISSION.TYPE allowing changes to parameters to be input in advance
of the effective date being reached. To do this a new record must be input with an ID of an existing commission type
with a suffix of the date when the new record will become effective, separated by a '-'. On the effective date a start-of-
day routine will replace the existing record with the dated record. For example, a future PCOMM commission would
have a record ID of PCOMM-20190805. On 5th August 2019 the PCOMM-20190805 record would overwrite the old
PCOMM record, so that the new parameters are present on the new PCOMM record. The NEXT.DATE field holds all future
dated record keys for the commission type.
Your institution may pay various commissions on business acquired. Each type must be fully described with its
calculation basis and calculation type.

Calculation Basis
This specifies whether the commission amount is to be calculated on a percentage basis, or as a unit.
Unit (U) - You can only specify this when using LEVEL or BAND calculation types. The amount entered in the
UNIT.CHARGE field, will be applied for the corresponding amount in accordance with the BAND/LEVEL calculation type.
Percentage (P) - This is the percentage on the loan amount. You can only specify this when using LEVEL or BAND
calculation types. The amount entered in the UNIT.CHARGE field, will be applied for the corresponding amount in
accordance with the BAND/LEVEL calculation type.
Blank - If blank, then you must specify the amount and specify Flat calculation type

Calculation Type
This specifies whether separate calculations are to be made for each band of the base amount, whether only one is
calculated which is dependent on the level of the base amount, or whether a FLAT amount is to be applied.
Example:
Assume a deal of Principal 100,000 USD where commission is calculated based on the Principal. The commission type
record specifies an applicable rate of 2 per cent up to 10,000 and 1.5 percent over 10,000.
If Band (B) is specified for all sub value groups, 2 calculations will be performed, that is 2% on 10,000 and 1.5% on
90,000.
If Level (L) is specified for all sub value groups, 1 calculation will be performed, that is 1.5% on 100,000.
If Flat (F) is specified, the basic Flat Amount will be applied.

Charges
Overview
This table defines the conditions relating to various types of standard flat charges used by financial transactions within
the FI/ACL. Each type of charge with related amount(s) must be set up.
Charges may be taken on the basis of “credit less charges” or “debit plus charges” or they may be waived. Charges in
local currency must be entered and foreign currency charges can optionally be specified. The currency of the account
bearing the charge determines the charge currency applied. Where no charges exist in the account currency the default
local currency charges will apply and the system will take the currency equivalent using the appropriate rates held on
the CURRENCY file.
In all cases the charge amount will be a FLAT amount, regardless of the monetary value of the transaction but they may
be varied according to the country and zone of the relevant customer and by currency.
It is also possible to enter future dated FT.CHARGE.TYPE allowing changes to parameters to be input in advance of the
effective date being reached. To do this a new record must be input with an ID of an existing charge type with a suffix
of the date when the new record will become effective, separated by a '-'. On the effective date a start-of-day routine
will replace the existing record with the dated record.
For example, a future TLX charge would have a record ID of TLX-20190805. On 5th August 2019 the TLX-20190805
record would overwrite the old TLX record, so that the new parameters are present on the new TLX record. The NEXT.DATE

Lodgement Payment
Overview
This application was developed specifically to the requirements of our Credit Union clients, where one member may
come into the branch to lodge (deposit) cash, cheques and/or a payment from a card to various members’ accounts,
and even receive cash back, all on one input screen.
The balancing entry is not processed to a member’s account, but rather to a ‘wash account’ to reflect only the
lodgements (credits) that are intended on the members’ accounts. (As opposed to Multiline Operations in the section
following in this chapter.)
Access
Teller RBHP>> Transactions>> Lodgement Payment

Field Name Description

Lodgement/Payment The system generates the transaction ID, the application indicator is TFS
(TELLER.FINANCIAL.SERVICES)

Main Member The application requires the system ID of at least one of the members to
launch the functionality. This could be the member who is in the branch,
presenting the transactions to be processed.

Cheque Secure If a cheque is being deposited, an account is required to be held as ‘security’


Account should the cheque not be honoured. In this application it is possible to
transfer the value of a cheque to multiple accounts.

Transaction Type The only available transaction type currently is Lodgement. Select this for
each entry line.
When the record is validated/committed, the system generates and displays
the balancing transaction types, depending on the Payment Type provided.

drop-down list is provided, and you may use the search option to filter the

Deposits into Written Off Loans


It may happen that defaulting borrowers wish to settle their debt that was written off to clear their name with the
financial institution (and credit bureau). As we support the creation of contingent accounts when loans are written off,
we also provide the capability for tellers to record deposits made (recoveries) against written off loans. These recovery
payments can be made in Cash, Cheque or Account transfers. See more about Written Off Loans and the processing in

Set up the Vault


The vault is viewed as a special till by the system, in that it is not opened/closed or balanced like the other tills, but
transfers to and from the vault can still take place. The vault id is entered first in the TELLER.PARAMETER file (this gives
it these special characteristics) and then defined on the TELLER.ID file.

Close Till:
At the close of every business day, each till needs to be balanced and money obtained from or transferred to the vault
(via the Head Teller) to maintain the Teller’s float. The closing of a till allows the Teller to balance the actual contents
of the Till against the balance held by the system. On closure, the Teller is prompted for the Till balance (in each
currency) and this is compared to the current system balance.

If a difference is found, then an override is required. Accepting the override automatically adjusts the system balance
to the Till balance and posts the balancing entries to the over and short internal account defined in the
TELLER.PARAMETER file (CCY10200 and CCY10300).
