Create or Edit a Transaction Model

To create or edit a transaction model, you select business objects, which provide data for the model to evaluate. You define filters that select risky records from that data. And you define the results that the model returns.

A Models page lists the models you're authorized to work with. To reach this page, open the Risk Management springboard and, in it, select Advanced Controls. Then select a Models tab.

To create a transaction model, you may :

  • Select Actions > Create Transaction Model in the Models page.
  • Select the Create Transaction Model quick action from the Risk Management springboard. (Depending on the number of quick actions available to you, you may need to select a Show More option on the springboard.)

Either action opens a Create Transaction Model page. Begin by naming and describing the model.

When you create a model, you're automatically its owner. After you save the model for the first time, you can add other users as owners, editors, or viewers.

To edit a model, select its row in the Models page, then select Edit. As an alternative, click the model name to open a read-only page that provides details of the model's configuration. In that page, click the Edit button. Either action opens an Edit page, a replica of the Create page populated by values for the model you want to edit.

Note: Although every transaction model must include a selection of business objects, initially no delivered, user-defined, or imported business objects are available to you. An administrator must use a Business Object Security feature to assign you business objects you can use. As you create a model, you can select only among the objects you've been assigned. Even if you're authorized to work with a model, you can open it for viewing or editing only if you're assigned all the objects it uses. If you're not, then a Missing Business Objects Access icon appears next to the model name. When you click on the name, a message identifies the objects you lack.
