Connection and
Message Reformat in Bank System
|
 |
 |
Problem
Description:
The Bank is
connected to a SWIFT network through Mainframe (AS400). It receives
incoming MERVA messages and saves them in files in folder A. Also, it
sends any file messages found in folder B to the SWIFT network.
But the Bank System
is running on Sun machine (Unix). Also, it receives and sends
messages in folders C&D.
So, they need a link
between the Mainframe and the Bank system.

Our Solution
We
have made
a connection software running on PC server (Win NT) that does the
following:
1-By Ftp
protocol, it continues checking for incoming MERVA files (in folder A).
Finding something, it does some validations, translates them into
PSP format, and sends them
to Sun machine (folder C).
2-It
does the
same for outgoing messages from folder D to folder B.
3- During that, each step result (corrupted file, format error,
validation error, receive date, send date, process success ...) is
recorded in a log file.
4-It gives alarms
in case of connection failure. Also, it gives reports for all handled
messages especially, the daily reports for failed and successful messages.
