5.1.1 Searching for Interest Rate Curve

A Search pane is provided to search for interest rate curves using Code, Name, Currency, Rate Format, or Curve Type parameters.

To search the Interest Rate, follow these steps:

  1. Enter the search criteria and click Search.
  2. Click Reset to remove any Code, Name, Currency, Rate Format, or Curve Type constraint specified and refresh the window.
    The search results are displayed in a table containing all of the interest rate curves that meet the search criteria. The Interest Rates Summary page offers several icons that allow you to perform different functions when an interest rate curve is selected.
    • Add: Click Add to build a new interest rate curve. The Add icon is disabled if any row in the pane is selected.
    • View: Select a single row in the table to enable the View icon. Click View to view the contents of an Interest rate curve in read-only format. The View icon is enabled only when a single Interest rate curve is selected in the table.
    • Edit: Select a single row in the table to enable the Edit icon. Clicking the Edit icon allows you to modify a previously saved Interest rate curve. The Edit icon is only enabled when a single row is selected. You can control the number of rows to display on the window by selecting the Pagination Options icon from the action bar.
    • Delete: Select one or more rows out of the table to enable the Delete icon. Clicking on the Delete deletes the Interest rate curve you have selected.
    • Copy: Selecting a single row in the table enables the Copy icon. Click the Copy icon to create a copy of an existing Interest rate curve. The Copy icon is only enabled when a single Interest rate curve is selected.
    • Check Dependencies: Select an interest rate curve and then click the Check Dependencies icon to generate a report on all rules that utilize your selected interest rate curve. The Check Dependencies icon is only enabled when a single interest rate curve is selected.
    • Execute the Historical Interest Rates Data Loader: This icon executes a function to import historical rates and parameters for all defined Interest rate curves. For more information on setting up the automated process, see the OFS Data Model Utilities User Guide.

      FusionApps.properties file must be present under Web Server <deployed path>/WEB-INF/props and $FIC_WEB_HOME/webroot/WEB-INF/props directories.

      Update the entry details of the source name. It must be infodom_SOURCE_NAME=Actual_Source_Name.

      For example, if Infodom Name is DEV6INFO and the source Name is DEVETLSRC, then the entry will be DEV6INFO_SOURCE_NAME=DEVETLSRC.

      Launch the Historical Interest Rates Data Loader from the Interest Rates Summary page after making this change.

      For more information, see Doc ID 2233513.1.

      To execute a historical Interest Rate data load, execute the Historical Interest Rates Data Loader. A warning message will appear Upload all available Interest Rates and Parameters? Click Ok to load all historical rates and parameters.

      Click Data Loader to execute all the interest rates and parameters.

  3. To select an Interest rate curve, select a check-box in the first column of the table. More than one Interest rate curve can be selected at a time, but this disables some of the icons.

    You can select or deselect all the Interest rate curves in the Summary page by selecting the check box in the upper left-hand corner of the Summary table directly to the left of the Code column header.

    The following list provides the Interest Rate details based on the search criteria.
