Duplicate Detection Application (AEG-DDA)
AEG DDA is an application designed for the SWIFT Alliance system
to detect duplicate entered or received SWIFT messages.
The
detected message may be fully identical to the previously entered/received
message or may have only similar umid (User Message Identification).
The application is intelligent enough to detect the differences and
decide whether it is a full duplicate or just a similar message.
The application keeps track of the messages sent to SWIFT or received
by storing their information on its database system. When a new message
is created manually or read by the interface or received from SWIFT,
the application checks automatically for full or partial duplicate with
other message in the database. In case, duplicate is found, the message
will be separated and queued in a special queue for verification and
decision. A duplicate message can be rejected, returned to modification
or released for further processing.
The application maintains
a secure internal database. The user may choose to use MS SQL server
or Oracle Database.
The application runs on the Alliance Access
and requires the Application Development Toolkit (ADK).
Save
time and money by detecting duplicate SWIFT messages
Messages
are frequently entered twice into the SWIFT system interface and sent
to the correspondent. The entry can happen:
- Manually by mistake when creating the same message twice or
more
- Automatically due to an error or bug in the middleware systems
linking the SWIFT interface to the back-office applications. The
middleware delivers the messages generated by the back-office applications
interactively to the SWIFT interface or inserts them into files.
Resending the messages or the file will cause duplicate entries..
Such errors could cost the bank time, money, and the inconvenience
of having to remedy it. Also, most of the time it is quite difficult
to detect or it may become too late to cancel it.
Overview
AEG-DDA is an application
designed for the Alliance system in order to detect incoming and outgoing
possible duplicate messages and to allow the user to take the necessary
decision. A duplicate message can be rejected, returned to modification
or released for further processing.
Product Functionality
The application
keeps track of the messages sent to and received from SWIFT by storing
the information on its database system. When a new message is manually
created or read from the back-office, the application automatically
checks it for full or partial duplicates with similar messages in the
database. In case, a duplicate is detected, the message will be separated
and queued to a special queue for further checking and decision/resolution.
Authorized users can use a specially designed graphical interface
to check the message details and compare it to the contents of the DB
message already sent or received.
The interface indicates whether
it is a fully or a partially duplicated message and allows the authorized
user to view:
- The text of the message
- List of the UMID’s of similar messages detected in the DB The
text of the message in the DB by double clicking on its UMID in
the list detected messages.
Application Platform
AEG-DDA runs
on the Alliance Access system in real-time mode. It uses the SWIFT Application
Development Toolkit (ADK Runtime) component. The application can be
installed on the same machine as the Alliance system.
