AMS Connector

---

Siebel Financial Services eAI provides connectors to help create integrations between Siebel Financial Services applications and external applications. This section describes the set up required to integrate Siebel eFinance with AMS's Automated Credit Application Processing System (ACAPS) using the AMS Connector. The AMS Connector allows users to enter account loan information directly into the Application screen and then pass the information to AMS ACAPS for processing. The AMS Connector was designed and implemented to be a point-to-point connection between Siebel eFinance and AMS ACAPS.

AMS Connector Overview

Siebel eFinance and AMS ACAPS are integrated using the Siebel Financial Services eAI infrastructure. Integration objects represent data exchanges and the entire process is coordinated by workflows. Key concepts of the integration process include:

• Integration Objects. The common data exchanged between Siebel eFinance and AMS ACAPS is depicted by integration objects. AMS ACAPS data is represented by an external integration object while Siebel eFinance data is represented by an internal integration object. For more information, see Siebel Financial Services eBusiness Application Integration Guide and Overview: Siebel eBusiness Application Integration Volume I.
• Siebel Data Mapper. The Siebel Data Mapper maps one integration object source to another integration object target. For more information on integration objects, see Integration Platform Technologies: Siebel eBusiness Application Integration Volume II.
• Siebel Integration Workflows. Siebel workflows coordinate the processing steps involved in exchanging data between Siebel eFinance and AMS ACAPS. These workflow definitions include exception handlers to manage error conditions that make sure of a reliable data exchange.
