    Field Description
    Safe Keeping location Identification

    Every safe keeping location that you define needs to be assigned a unique identification code. This ID is in turn linked to a single or to multiple accounts depending on the number of accounts you want to link, to a specific safe keeping location.

    Description

    In addition to the SK Location ID, specify a title or a short description of the SK location you are defining. This will enable you to identify the SK location quickly.

    The short description that you specify is for information purposes only and will not be printed on any customer correspondence.

    Customer Identification

    You might be holding securities on behalf of your customer therefore it becomes necessary to maintain a customer profile concerning the securities held.

    This information can be maintained in the Customer Information Maintenance (CIF) screen, which is part of the Core Entities module of Oracle Banking Treasury Management.

    The Customer Ids available in the pick list are defaulted from the CIF maintenance screen. By linking a Credit Line to a Liability Number, you assign a limit, to the customer linked to the line. Every credit-seeking customer is linked to a liability number and the credit facilities granted to him are tracked against this liability number.

    Note:

    In the Customer Information Maintenance screen, you need to link customers to specific SK Locations. For this purpose you can create a customer category called Safe Keeping Locations. This can be created through the Customer Category detail screen. All the SK Locations that you have maintained can come under this category.

    After defining the category, you only need to associate the liability number of the customer with the customer category. The customers thus defined can be linked to a credit line through the Limits maintenance screen.
