4 Maintain Advice Formats

This topic provides an overview of the Advices and its formats.

The advices that are generated from the bank will have a definite format. In the Advice Format Maintenance screen, the user can specify formats and indicate the messages and advices that should use the formats that are defined.

By maintaining message formats, the user can ensure consistency across the branches of the bank. The user can maintain advice formats either by:
  • Using the format editor on the screen to enter the format, or
  • Importing the format from an ASCII file which can be located either on the Server or Client

Note:

Message formats are maintained at the bank level and will apply to all the branches of the bank.

Automatic Printing of Advices Generated during EOD Processing

In addition to the generation of advices, Oracle FLEXCUBE Universal Banking automatically prints the advices that are scheduled to be generated during End Of Day (EOD) processing. Account Statements, Loan statements are examples of advices that is scheduled to be generated during EOD processing. This section contains the following topics:
  1. Start the Background Process
  2. Printing of Advices
    In Oracle FLEXCUBE Universal Banking , the advices are generated during batch processing. On starting the background process, the system will search for the messages that are not generated. The advices may be of two kinds:
    • The Advices that are not generated during contract authorization (If the message generation at the time of contract authorization is not opted.)
    • The Advices that are scheduled to be generated during End of Day operations.
    • As soon as the message is generated, the system will check whether the advice was scheduled to get generated during EOD. If so, the advice will be sent for spooling and printing.
    If the advice is not scheduled to be generated during EOD, the system will move on to generate the next advice without printing the advice.
