ASoftCMSOnline Description
ASoft OnLine Authorization CMS, is main responsible to provide transaction authorization based on account balance. There are two possibilities:
- This module stores and knows account balance,
- Other system in the surrounding stores and manages account to which card is linked. In that case ASoftOnline asks that system for the balance. If that system is not available, ASoftOnline gives an authorization on its own.
This feature is available per IIN, meaning that accounts linked to different card products, can be managed in different IS subsystems, still ASoftOnline is the unique authoriyation point. ASoftOnline makes hold on accounts for each given positive authorization, and can forward it to other subsystem. Daily financial processing based on financial messages, confirms holds, recreates new account balances and removes holds, preparing the system for the new day. For those transactions that do not receive their financial counterpart, after n days, defined by the Bank, an automatic procedure remove holds.
ASoftOnline receives authorization requests via ISO8583 protocol. It consists of two components, or layers. First one is the module ROFF that manages the connection with the Host, at communication level. It recognizes communication loss or exception events at sides, processor’s Host and Online module.
GUI interface is available to provide insight and monitoring of the authorized transactions.
