This chapter provides overviews of financial accounts, integration with legacy systems, and discusses how to:

Click to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Financial Accounts

A financial account represents a holding by a customer of a product or service provided by financial services industries, including insurance, wealth management, and banks. The financial account function presents information from various legacy systems in a consistent interface. The financial account maps to the product, inheriting the terms and conditions from the product purchased by the customer.

The Financial Account record and its sub-records are created by the legacy administration systems. The Product order process functionality sends the completed application to the legacy system, the legacy system creates the account in their own area and then sends a message to CRM. The CRM system reads the inbound message and creates the account header record and the associated sub records inside its own system.

A financial account is held by a business contact. The business contact may be a person, company, partnership or an alternate capacity.

Each financial account record represents one financial services account. If a business contact has two checking accounts, there is one financial account instance in the financial services database for each.

A financial account is associated with the terms and conditions related to the product. Additional terms and conditions can be applicable to specific accounts.

PeopleSoft delivers customer, agent, account manager, and application administrator permission groups for PeopleSoft Enterprise Banking Transactions, PeopleSoft Enterprise Bill Presentment and Account Management, PeopleSoft Enterprise Policy and Claims Presentment, and PeopleSoft Enterprise Client Management.

Customer

The self-service customer navigates to account detail records by way of the My Accounts pagelet.

My Accounts contains a listing of accounts for which the customer is the owner, authorized user, or beneficiary, or, in other words, has security matrix entry in his or her name. The account detail is read-only for the customer. No information can be changed on this page.

Agent

The financial services agent does not have permission to search the listing of account records held by customers. Agent access is strictly controlled. An agent can only view the details of an account held by a customer who is explicitly identified. Agents can view an account only when they identify the customer and navigate to the customer's 360-Degree View. Every entry of the agent to a particular customer's 360-Degree View is traced by access trace mechanism.

Account Manager and Administrator

The financial services account manager and the administrator has more authority to search for an existing account record.

There is a search page available to find an existing account record. The account detail is read-only. In addition, they can also see the accounts by navigating through the 360-Degree View as the agent does.

Financial account information is provided for a number of contract types that correspond to product types.

As PeopleSoft CRM applications are delivered, the following financial accounts are available:

Click to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Integration with Legacy Systems

This section discusses integration requirements.

Two components must be configured for the integration to function correctly:

  1. Integration Broker setup.

  2. A legacy system can post the appropriate XML file to the uniform resource locator of the application messaging gateway. The PeopleSoft system then asynchronously subscribes to this data and loads it into the production tables. A legacy system can also choose to use a flat file to represent its data. An application engine process converts the flat file into an XML document that is in turn published to the application messaging gateway. The process run to perform this function automates the conversion of a flat file to an XML document and also the publishing process. For XML post, inbound data is validated during subscription. For flat files, data validation occurs during the publishing phase and again during the subscription phase.

The goal is to provide an integration framework to subscribe to inbound data from any legacy system. The two delivered methods of integration (XML and flat file) still go through the same enterprise integration point (EIP), which is the application messaging gateway.

PeopleSoft CRM delivers the flat file process—RBF_FIN_ITG—which runs to load a flat file depending on the configuration.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicAssumptions for XML Integration

Review the following assumptions for XML integration:

Note. PROD_SETID, PRODUCT_ID, AND OWNER_BO_TYPE must be either valid prompt values or valid translate values that exist in the PeopleSoft system. Therefore, any legacy system would need to synchronize the list of possible values for these fields with the PeopleSoft system.

Financial account address message: CUST_ACCT_NBR and SYSTEM_SOURCE_CD has to be associated with the message.

Relationships message:

Security message:

This process employs a mapping of fields in the flat file. Column headings are specified on the first line of the flat file. These column headings are mapped to actual PeopleSoft field names on the setup page. This mapping is saved and used when loading a flat file. In this way, order of the fields is irrelevant. Headings are used to determine which values correspond to which fields.

To run the file upload process:

The log file generated by this process is dumped into the root directory of the process scheduler (ps_cfg_home\appserv\prcs\dbname\files).
