Oracle FLEXCUBE interacts with the bank users and customers based on certain predefined parameters. The interactions help the customers track the information related to their accounts. They also help the bank users identify the tasks that require their attention.
Oracle FLEXCUBE supports the following interactions:
Interaction |
Description |
Conversation |
Conversation is the flow of information between you and the end user. It helps you to track and address the request of the end users. |
Reminder |
Oracle FLEXCUBE allows configuring reminders to remind about important activities like making a payment, attending meetings and so on. |
Instruction |
An instruction is a piece of information that is conveyed to you and the end user simultaneously on the dashboard. You can provide different messages to different users of the same account. |
Alert |
A business alert is a message that conveys such information by email, sms or as a message on the user dashboard. The alerts can be generated to the customers and bank staff at a regular interval defined in the system. |
Spend Analysis |
Based on the type of expenditure from the account, Oracle FLEXCUBE will classify the debit transactions under different spend classes. This classification helps the customer get the details of the money spend from the account under each spend class. |
