The Payment Consolidation Template Engine

The Payment Consolidation Integration module provides a generic template processing mechanism based on Java reflection. The templates specify rules for reading data elements from the input file into members of certain Java objects or write values of Java object members to certain data elements in the output file.

Preconfigured templates containing business logic are provided for use with the Oracle Self-Service E-Billing jobs to parse the input data files and generate output files. You must customize the preconfigured templates for the data file requirements of your particular payment consolidator.
