Table 1-1 Enhancements in Framework

Enhancements Description
Corporate Features Support for New Frequencies in Reports and Statements

The Reports Framework is enhanced to support two more frequencies at which reports can be generated- Previous Calendar Month and Previous Calendar Quarter. Using the "Previous Calendar Quarter" frequency option, the Corporate User/System Administrator can generate or schedule reports for the previous calendar quarter. Report will be generated on selected date for previous calendar quarter. For e.g., if run date is 20th February 2023, then report will be generated for 1st October to 31st December 2022. For the "Previous Calendar Month" frequency option, the Corporate User/ System Administrator can generate or schedule reports for the previous calendar month. Report will be generated on scheduled date for previous calendar month. For e.g., if run date is 20th August 2023, then report will be generated for 1st to 31st July 2023.

Platform-Framework Features System Configuration Migration

System configuration has been architecturally revamped as a completely standalone microservice serving configurations to all other modules. As part of this activity, we have moved the existing configurations for all modules from the existing design to the revamped configuration design.

Introduction of Persona

A new option has been introduced to add predefined personas in the application. These personas are used to determine the access level of users based on their assigned roles. These personas are used to restrict or allow access to specific transactions and user types. Two personas- System Administrator and Bank Administrator have been added on the Role Maintenance screen. Persona defines the user’s responsibility in the system. User with persona as System Administrator can create only Bank Administrators as well as other System Administrators while a user with persona as Bank Administrator persona can create only Retail and Corporate users but not other Bank Administrators.

Entity Maintenance Screen A new Entity Maintenance screen has been introduced to streamline entity configuration within the system. It displays a complete list of available entities and allows users to easily:
  • View detailed entity information
  • Add new entities
  • Edit existing entities
Group Corporate Maintenance Enhancement Enhancement of Modify User Details API

The OBDX API earlier mandated providing all users for any user group modification. The new PATCH API enhancement allows incremental updates, enabling addition or deletion of specific users without impacting existing group configurations.

First Name and Last Name display in User Group

As part of this enhancement, First Name and Last Name are now displayed as a part of User Group.

Alert/Notification Message upon Login A new feature has been introduced to enhance timely communication with the bank customers regarding upcoming key events or disruptions that may impact their experience or system availability. The primary reason for the messages are (but not limited to):
  • Planned Outages
  • Notification of production issues
  • Upcoming system enhancements

To achieve this, the existing Mailer Maintenance functionality available to the Bank Administrator is enhanced. A new flag is introduced within the mailer setup to allow administrators to specify whether a message should be displayed to users upon login to the OBDX portal or not. If this flag is enabled, the message will appear as a banner or pop-up window each time the user performs a fresh login to the application. If the flag is disabled, the message will function as a standard mailer and will be delivered only to the user’s secured mailbox, without being displayed on the login screen.
