Bankmaster and BM+ solutions


Various projects providing solutions to Bankmaster / BM+ Client requirements

We have completed a wide range of projects around the Bankmaster / BM+ product, listed below are some examples

Integrated Solutions

Interest Realign

The interest realignment project solved the problem of splitting net interest without the Client Bank having to switch to the Bankmaster supported split interest methods in the midst of the financial year. The solution was a .Net application that had configuration, enquiry and processing options. The application is run during the start and end of day jobstreams, calculating and posting adjustments for credit/debit swings (accrual/application position accounts) and produces a processing report and log.

Periodic Customer Charges

Customer charging system with fixed-rate and transaction based charges applied at user defined periods. Different charge rates can be specified, applied based on account level tariffs. Charge rates can be fixed, volume or summation based. User can create letter templates which the application will use to generate customer notification letters prior to applying charges. The Clients previous solution was a combination of a 3rd-party database and supporting programs, IQ reporting and numerous manual processes, some of which had to be performed on specific times during the month - our solution removed the need for any manual processing and consolidated all configuration, processing and enquiry into one application, integrated with Bankmaster via jobstreaming.
