Centralised Database:The data of all the branches covered under the project will
bestored at one place called Data Centre. In effect, it means that all the operations at
the connected branches shall take place at one place i.e., Data Centre.
Back Office functions: The branches which will be called Service Outlets
(SOLs),Finacle Software will not need to take backup as the same will be done at Data
Centre. Many of the back office functions will be handled at Data Centre only.

Centralisedlocation, the MIS information can be extracted without the same being
provided by branches. The branches can be spared the burden of providing information
by way of returns/reports etc.

the salient features of the Software are as follows:
Every customer of the branch is now a customer of the bank, as all the
customers will have unique customer ID across the bank.
The Software encompasses all the retail functionalities like Savings, Current,
Cash Credit, Overdraft, Term Deposits, Term Loans, and Safe Deposit Vault etc.
The security features include Maker-Checker Concept, Audit Trail etc.

Single sign on framework enables the application users to access multiple applications
through a single login id and password. All the login related validations happen in SSO.
Single Sign on (SSO) framework enables application users of Finacle suite of products
(Finacle Core and CRM) to log in once and get authenticated to each application for
which the user has the valid user id and access permissions.
SSO being an authentication framework that works with unique user ID, would use only
one schema and database even when each Finacle solution integrated in SSO could
work with multiple schemas. Entity ID‟s would be stored in SSO database by the
Finacle Installer as seed data. In SSO database, User would be mapped to an entity ID.

Finacle is a customer centric solution. All products and services offered in Finacle are
built around the customer. The Customer Information File where all the information
about the customer is stored. The information can be customer‟sbasic data,
segmentation, products & services offered to customer, customer preferences, financial
details, related parties, assets and liabilities, interests, hobbies and so on. The data
relating to these should have access through various backend. So, instead of capturing
the information in multiple back end systems, it is maintained at a common CIF
database in Customer Relationship Management module and linkage is provided to all
the required back end systems.
Every individual (retail) and business (corporate) customer bears a unique identity
signified as CIF ID. This gives a global flavour to conduct business transactions across
geographies, systems, channels, products, at all times. This ID is created for the
customer in the bank's database. This CIF ID is subsequently used by the Bank to
provide all types of products and services to the customer. On creation of the CIF ID,
the customers can perform banking transactions such as depositing money, availing
loan, credit or debit card or any other product of the bank. The CIF system helps the
bank to know the details of the individuals with whom they maintain certain relationship.
CIF creation is about capturing the details of the individual / corporates, doing the
required validations and storing it in the Bank‟s database for future reference. The
whole bundle of customer- related information thus captured is available in the CIF
module of the CRM.
The customers, based on whether they are individuals or business are referred to as
either Retail or Corporates.
CIF ID: Customer Information File system, in FINACLE, stores all the customer related
information, account information, preferences, segment, and profitability. Every

8. TRANSACTION MAINTENANCE
Terminologies:
Entered transaction: Status given when a transaction is created with no effect of
thetransaction any balance.
Posted transaction: Status given when the actual account balances get affected. It

account. It does not affect the Sub GL balances. The person who posts the transaction
must have necessary permission or access to carry out the process.
Verified transaction: Status given when another person ensures the correctness of
thetransaction and also authorises it. The person who authorises the transaction must
have the necessary permission or access to carry out the process.
A transaction can be modified by any number of persons. The Core Banking Solution
keeps track of the last person who has modified the transaction. Once the modification
is done by a person, the Core Banking Solution overwrites the information of the first
person who has created the transaction. This is for the simple reason that the person
who is modifying the transaction might be doing with the wrong intention. The Core
Banking Solution does not keep track of person who has deletes the transaction also.
Only the status of the transaction is updated to Deleted.
Backdated transaction
This is a transaction that is initiated on an account where transaction date which is less
than BOD dates. At the end of day, the Core Banking Solution updates the Sub GL
Balances for all the previous days. You must print all statutory reports as there is a
change in the previous day's balances.

This transaction occurs for an account where the transaction date is greater than the
current date (Core Banking Solution date or BOD date). In this scenario you cannot
process the transaction till the date of transaction matches with the BOD date.
GL Date in a transaction
When the branches work in different time zones, SOLs need not necessarily do the
EOD / BOD operations to proceed with next day's transactions. Instead they can just
change the GL date and go ahead with their next business date transactions.

Lien is nothing but linking of deposit type of account with an advance account for the
purpose of security and freezing the amount for further transaction. Once a valid lien is
placed on a bank account, it is frozen. The bank holds the money there for some period
of time without giving any to the owner or to the lien holder. Also the bank will turn the
money over to the lien holder when the time period expires. A lien will put a hold only on
the money that is in the account at the time the lien is given to the bank. Deposits made
after the lien has been filed may be given to the owner; these deposits are not subject to
the lien.
Create lien on account and make lien related inquiry. The placing of lien manually is
irrespective of balance in that account. The user cannot modify the system created

pooldescription, pool type, mode of regularisation and clicks on“Go”, the system picks up the
primary customer ID the accounts which matches the relationship of the account indicated as
under:
Auto regularisation: When the value is set to“M‟, then automatic regularization ofunregularized
pool will be disabled and the user will have to make a manual fund transfer to the account in
pool having deficit balance to bring it to a regularized state. However no manual interference is
allowed for FFDs. However, the operative accounts linked to the FFDs can participate in the
manual fund transfer.
Eg: If a pool has multiple operative accounts and one or more of these accounts have linked
FFDs, then system behaviour for FFD-linked operative accounts and non-FFD-linked operative
account will differ. For a non-FFD-linked account, no automatic regularization will take place.
However, for FFD-linked operative accounts, regularization funding from FFDs will take place
automatically by the existing FFD regularization.
When the value of Mode of Sweep is set as “S‟for a pool, the System will trigger regularization
by itself.
(a) Modification from “S‟to “M‟: Modification of the Mode of Sweep from System to Manual is
allowed only for a regularized pool. If the pool is in an un-regularized state, then this
modification will not be allowed.
(b) Modification from “M” to “S”: Modification of Mode of Sweep from Manual to System will be
allowed without any restrictions. However, this modification should always be done
onlyafter due regularization of un-regularized pools by manually transferring funds from
funding accounts to the deficit accounts. System will display an information message
statingthe same during such modification. However, there will be no system restrictions if an un-
regularized pool is modified from Manual to System. The probable results of such a modification

no restriction that the user should enter the order in the same way. He can just go on giving
whatever number he likes. But finally when the order is to be arrived, system will simply put it in
ascending order within the scheme type.

17. LOAN
In a loan, initially the borrower receives or borrows an amount of money from
lender, called principle and is obligated to pay back or repay an equal
amount of money to thelender at a later time. Depending on nature of
advances, loan types can be Secured, Unsecured, Demand, Term and
Subsidized.
Rephasement of Loan
Many a times, the borrower/customer may not be able to adhere to the repayment
schedule stipulated by the Bank for various reasons. This results in overdues in that
account. After a thorough review of the account, considering the various issues
associated with it, Bank may come out with a different repayment schedule to mitigate
the hardships faced by the borrower/guarantor. This reconsideration of the repayment
schedule is known as Rephasement of the Account.
AOD/AOS
AOD means acknowledgement of Debt. AOS means Acknowledgement of Security.
Before legal proceedings are initiated against the borrower for recovery of the advance,
the Banks take care to ensure that the securities and the documents obtained for the
purpose of loan are in force. In order to ensure this at periodical intervals the Banks
would be obtaining these two documents to keep the original documents/securities
obtained in force.
Prepayment
Whenever the Bank makes advances, it expects the borrower to pay the same in pre-
defined period that may be equal instalments or staggered instalments. It is possible
that the borrower who takes the loan can make repayment of the loan amount much
ahead of the schedule and close the account. In many cases, especially in case of long
term loans like housing loan, the Banks does not want the customer to make early
payment because of cash management and investment management. In those cases
the Banks may even charge penalty for making early payment. Such early payment
made in front of the schedule is known as pre-payment or unscheduled payment.
Asset classification
Each advance account in a Bank is an asset to the Bank. The Bank monitors the assets
closely to ensure that it recovers the advance amount along with interest and related
charges promptly. As a part of monitoring the accounts, accounts are classified into
various categories depending upon the status of each account as to whether all the
instalments are recovered, all the interest and various charges applied are recovered,
whether the payment has come as per the schedule etc. If there is any discrepancy,
depending upon the period for which dues are not recovered, the percentage of amount
that could not be recovered etc., accounts are classified into various categories. As and
68
Indian Overseas Bank – Finacle 10.x
End User Training Manual
when the accounts goes from bad to worse conditions, more and more follow up will be
required for recovery. This classification of accounts is known as Asset classification
Asset provisioning
As a step further to asset classification, Banks will have to keep a certain percentage of
the outstanding in loan accounts wherever they feel difficulty in recovering. This amount
which is kept from its income is known as provision amount for Bad and Doubtful debts.
The Central Bank of the country would be defining norms and procedure for making
such provisions depending upon the status of each account. This provision may vary
from any percentage up to a maximum of 100 percent provision.
Writing off
The accounts which have been classified as worst asset and where 100 percent
provision is done, will be written off from the books of accounts, if the Bank feels that
there is nochances of recovering the amount at all. This will be done by adjusting the
amount from the provision made. This process of making the adjustment from the
provision amount is known as Charge off/Writing off. Banks continue to put efforts for
recovering the amount subsequent to writing off also.
FLOWS
Flow is a code. Every Transaction either a Debit or a credit to a Loan account is
associated with a flow code/ID. Based on the flow, the system has to do some internal
storing of information, processes, validations etc. This is required to arrive at the
Demand, Collection and Balance position of an account thus reflecting the overdue
position of an account. This is also useful for classification of assets into performing and
non-performing assets.
The flows are categorised into following categories:
C – Collection
D – Demand
P – Disbursement
T – Transfer
E – Equated Instalments
DISBURSEMENT:
Represents loan amount released to the account holder based on the sanction limit.
Normally disbursement flows will happen while opening. There can be a single or
multiple disbursements in a loan account. In case of multiple flows disbursement will
happen subsequent to account opening. Disbursement flow is associated with debit
transactions except in case of reversals of disbursement.
69
Indian Overseas Bank – Finacle 10.x
End User Training Manual
demand. Demands are raised periodically during the life cycle of the loan account. As
and when an instalment becomes due, system automatically raises a demand for the
principal amount. Whenever interest is applied/capitalised (debit to account) interest
demand is raised. Whenever any other debits like payment of insurance, payment of tax
etc. are done it can be a Bank charge demand or Other Demand.
COLLECTION:
This is a transaction for recovery of amount to a loan account. Collection flows can
happen during the lifecycle of the loan account, when the customer makes a repayment.
For collection flows, it is possible to specify the offset sequence (the sequence in which
the demands raised are to be offset or adjusted (such as principal first, interest next,
charges etc.)). It is also possible to specify that the collections should be set off in the
chronological order in which the demands have been raised or in a specific way. It is
also possible to adjust various demands in the loan account over riding the definition.
Collection is associated with credit transactions to loan a/c.
TRANSFER:
A loan account can also go into credit balance in some cases. When the loan account
goes to credit balance, it needs to be debited to transfer the credit balance. This debit
cannot be treated as a disbursement, Interest or any other Charge. In such cases, the
transaction will be Classified/Identified as Transfer “flow”. “Transferflow”ispossible
onlyiftheliability of the account is nil and the interest calculation is up-to-date.
Equated instalments:
The repayment to a loan account could be done in equated instalments. The equated
instalments can be monthly, quarterly or any other specified period. If the instalments
are of equated in nature, then the amount repaid will be adjusted towards both principal
and interest.

Lending is one of the main activities of the Bank. Through lending activity, Bank earns
major income that is referred to as Interest. Banks also earn by way of charges
collected for various activities that they carry out in relation to loans.
When Banks finance the activities of corporate houses, the loans are called Corporate
Loans. Depending upon the type of the product, quantum of loan amount, the nature,
handling and behaviour of the advances differ. Processing of the advance also differ.
Banks some time appoint individuals or an organisation to promote its product. In turn
they will be compensated with different types of commission, incentive etc. for having
brought in business to the Bank. These individuals or organisation is known as Direct
Selling Agents.
TERMINOLOGY EXPLAINED
Draw Down: The process of the customer drawing the amount of the loan sanctioned.
Inother words, it is the bank disbursing the loan sanctioned.
Crystallisation: Conversion of overdue liability denominated in a Foreign Currency
intohome currency or to a designated third currency
Draw down notice: The notice given by the customer indicating that he wants money
tobe disbursed to him as per the schedule
Annualised Percentage Rate (APR): The APR is the relative cost of credit
expressedin percentage terms on the basis of one year.
Banks quote rates of interest in different ways. In addition to interest, banks also levy
certain other charges. Often the customer does not get a clear picture about the total
cost he is incurring on his loan account in a year. This clarity is all the more important
when he is trying to compare his cost of borrowing from different banks.
Therefore the customer would like to know his total cost taking into account all his
interest costs and other charges per year, as a percentage vis-à-vis his loan amount.
This would easily be able to compare cost of borrowing from different banks. This single
rate quoted for total cost is called the Annualised Percentage Rate.

DELINQUENCY CYCLE
Any loan sanctioned will have a repayment schedule and the borrower has to adhere to
the repayment schedule. It is a common thing that the instalment does not get paid on
due date and the Banks wants to follow it up. Apart from just following it for recovery
purposes they also want some statistical data on what was the due date for an
instalment and when it actually got paid/recovered, Depending upon how many days of
delay was there; the account would be passing through various cycles. This updation is
done with respect to each of the instalments.
Delinquency details means, the time buckets under which overdue instalments will be
classified. That means for how many days each of the instalment was pending and into
how many cycles it moved before it was paid. This information is required to know how
the customer has repaid his instalments. The user can decide the period of each cycle.
When dues in a loan account are not recovered on due dates, the account is said to be
delinquent. In some countries, the words „Out of Order‟ or „Overdue‟ accounts are also
used for delinquent accounts. Accounts becoming delinquent have a lot of significance
forbanks because they will have to pay more attention to these accounts to see that
dues are recovered. The longer an account remains delinquent, the more the concern
for the bank. To monitor this, banks resort to what are called delinquency cycles. Each
delinquency cycle corresponds to a certain number of days that the account remained
delinquent. Finacle supports creation of up to 15 Delinquency Cycles. The concept of
delinquency cycles works on the way bank defines it at scheme level. For example the
bank may define at scheme level that all the accounts that are delinquent for a period of
15 days must be categorised under Cycle 1, all the accounts that are delinquent for a
period of 45 days must be categorised under Cycle 2, all the accounts that are
delinquent for a period of 90 days must be categorised under Cycle 3 etc.. Based
onthislogicbanks categorise accounts into various Delinquency Cycles. Suppose an
account was delinquent for 60 days. It would have been categorised in Cycle 3, by the
system. If he clears all the dues on the 60th day, his account is no more a delinquent
account. In this case, the categorisation is removed. Thus an account can be a
delinquent account at one point in time and can be a good account subsequently.

The penal interest for a loan account is handled separately for a loan account for the
recall period. Now the recall would be handled from a menu, HLARECAL. Also if an
account is recalled, the outstanding principal amount will be raised as a demand. Then
the penal interest calculation will be handled normally as any other case, but off course
depending on the penal interest parameters.
The menu, HLARECAL, also handles the reversal of recall also. In reversal of the recall,
the outstanding amount which got raised during the recall will be reverted back to the
previous stage. But if any payments happened on the loan after the recall, it will not be
possible to do the reversal of the recall.
This menu would raise a principal demand for the remaining outstanding principal (not
raised portion only). Hence, in combination with the existing principal demands, entire
loan principal amount becomes overdue immediately.
After the recall of the account, the system would calculate the penal interest based on
the penal parameters only. If an account is recalled, and customer is trying to
reschedule the account, then the recalled flag will be changed to no. The reversal of
recall will not be allowed if any payments are done in between.

Borrowing by way of a loan facility can provide a borrower with a flexible and efficient
source of funding. If a borrower requires a large or sophisticated facility or multiple
types of facility this is commonly provided by a group of lenders known as a syndicate
under a syndicated loan agreement. A syndicated loan agreement simplifies the
borrowing process as the borrower uses one agreement covering the whole group of
banks
2.1 Term Loan Facility: Under a term loan facility the lenders provide a
specifiedcapital sum over a set period of time, known as the "term". Typically, the
borrower is allowed a short period after executing the loan (“commitment" period),
during which time it can draw loans up to a specified maximum facility limit. Repayment
may be in instalments (facility is commonly described as "amortizing") or there may be
one payment at the end of the facility (facility is commonly described as "bullet"
repayment terms). Once a term loan has been repaid by the borrower, it cannot be re-
drawn.
2.2 Revolving Loan Facility: A revolving loan facility provides a borrower with
amaximum aggregate amount of capital, available over a specified period of time.
However, unlike a term loan, the revolving loan facility allows the borrower to
drawdown, repay and re-draw loans advanced to it of the available capital during the
term of the facility. Each loan is borrowed for a set period of time, after which time it is
technically repayable. Repayment of a revolving loan is achieved either by scheduled
reductions in the total amount of the facility over time, or by all outstanding loans being
repaid on the date of termination.
A revolving loan facility is a particularly flexible financing tool as it may be drawn by a
borrower by way of straight forward loans, but it is also possible to incorporate different
101
Indian Overseas Bank – Finacle 10.x

2.3 General: Syndicated loan agreements may contain only a term or revolving facility
orthey can contain a combination of. There can be one borrower or a group of
borrowers with provision allowing for the accession of new borrowers The facility may
include a guarantor or guarantors and again provisions may be incorporated allowing for
additional guarantors to accede to the agreement.
The syndication process is initiated by the borrower, who appoints a lender through the
grant of a mandate to act as the Arranger (also often called a Mandated Lead Arranger)
on the deal. There is often more than one Arranger on any transaction. The Arranger is
responsible for advising the borrower as to the type of facilities it requires and then
negotiating the broad terms of those facilities. By the very nature of this appointment, it
is likely that the Arranger will be a lender with which the borrower already has an
established relationship, although it does not have to be. Arrangers appointed by the
Borrower to act as Book runner also starts to put together a syndicate of banks to
provide that facility.
Syndication is often done in stages, with an initial group of lenders agreeing to provide a
share of the facility. This group of lenders is often referred to as Co-Arranger. The Co-
Arrangers then find more lenders to participate in the facility, who agree to take a share
of the Co- Arrangers' commitment.
Agent:To facilitate the process of administering the loan on a daily basis, one bank
fromthe syndicate is appointed as Agent. The Agent who is appointed acts as the agent
of the lenders not of the borrower and has a number of important functions:
Point of Contact: (maintaining contact with the borrower and representing the views
ofthe syndicate)
Monitor:(monitoring the compliance of the borrower with certain terms of the facility)
Paying Agent: (the borrower makes all payments of interest and repayments
ofprincipal and any other payments required under the Loan Agreement to the Agent.
The Agent passes these monies back to the banks to whom they are due. Similarly the
banks advance funds to the borrower through the Agent)
The terms of a syndicated loan agreement empower the Agent to undertake the roles
described above in return for a fee. Any decisions of a material nature (for example, the
granting of a waiver) must usually be taken by a majority, if not by the whole syndicate.
102
Indian Overseas Bank – Finacle 10.x
End User Training Manual
If the syndicated loan is to be secured, a lender from the syndicate is usually appointed
to act as Security Trustee to hold the security on trust for the benefit of all the lenders.
The duties imposed upon the Security Trustee are typically more extensive than those
of an agent.
In large syndicates, it is sometimes decided that some decision making power should
be delegated to the majority from time to time (often referred to as the 'majority lenders'
or 'instructing group'). This group usually consists of members of the syndicate at the
relevant time that holds a specified larger percentage of the total commitments under
the facility. By delegating some of the decision-making, the mechanics of the loan are
able to work more effectively than if each and every member of the syndicate had to be
consulted and subsequently reach unanimous agreement on every request from the
borrower.

Finacle 10x has the following features/provision to sanction and maintain temporary
Overdrafts, which is outlined below.
Terminology Explained
TOD: TOD means Temporary Over Draft. A TOD is a limit/facility granted by the bank to
its customers to draw in excess of available balance in their operative accounts, for a
short period which is generally not backed by a formal sanction. In order to tide over the
financial crisis period/delay in getting formal sanctions and meet immediate working
capital requirements, the bank either gives clean or secured overdrafts to them.
Secured overdrafts: Secured overdrafts are those that are generally backed by
110
Indian Overseas Bank – Finacle 10.x
End User Training Manual
securities like government bonds, NSCs, life insurance policies, and banks own term
deposits & shares and debentures of limited companies (in case of overdraft accounts)
or by stocks-in trade (in case of cash credit accounts), Clean TOD: Clean TODs are
granted without any security and are generally for a very short period (normally between
7 days to 15 days).
Single TOD: –A TOD granted for a specific purpose and for use only once. Once the
TOD is used, it is not available again, even if the funds are replenished.
Ex. A TOD granted for Rs.1, 00,000.00 as a single TOD on 01.01.1998 and is valid up
to 10.01.1998. The customer utilises it on 01.01.1998. On 05.01.1998 he remits a sum
of Rs.50, 000/- to the account. The user cannot reuse the amount of Rs.50, 000/-
remitted by him even though the TOD is valid up to 10.01.1998. It only allows him to
avail the balance Rs.50, 000/- on or before 10.01.1998.
GRANTING OF TOD
Granting of TOD is done through HACTODM menu option. It is also possible to grant
TOD for a future date.
HACTODM:
The user has to always go in the “M” –Modifymodefor creatingthe TOD. The Account ID
for which the TOD is being granted is to be entered and then click on <GO>. The user
has to click on „ADD NEW REC‟. The user has to enter thefollowing fields:
Grant Date –Effective date of TOD. The date from which the TOD is available for use by
the account. This date can be BOD date or can be future dated.
Advance amount –The amount of TOD that is being granted now. Interest: One of the
radio Buttons, i.e., A/C Level or TOD Level must be selected.
Account Level Interest –If A/C Level Int is selected, system will calculate the interest as

23. CLEARING
Banks receive instruments such as cheques, drafts, and pay cheques issued by
customers. These instruments are exchanged at the Clearing House. The process of
settlement of these instruments is known as Clearing.
Inward clearing is a process whereby the Bank receives various types of negotiable
instruments that are drawn on it by its customers and parts the resultant proceeds to the
presenter of the instruments.
In case of Outward clearing, the Bank gets the proceeds since it acts as a collecting
agent on behalf of its customers who have tendered the instruments for credit of their
accounts.
Each bank or branch receives the list of cleared instruments payable to account
holders. The process of lodging this information and regularizing the credit is called
outward clearing. Both inward and outward clearing instruments are specified in zones
to facilitate processing.
A zone is opened for each meeting that takes place for exchange of instruments
between banks in a Clearing House. Each zone is associated with a zone code and the
date on which the meeting takes place. Thus a zone code identifies a particular days
clearing meeting.
114
Indian Overseas Bank – Finacle 10.x
End User Training Manual
Opening of a zone can be done through HOZO menu option or using function (O) of
HMCLZOH and then click on <submit> button
An outward clearing zone can be opened for processing for a given day as well for the
days greater than the BOD date.
LODGING OF INSTRUMENTS

Indian Overseas Bank – Finacle 10.x
End User Training Manual
The verification of instruments that are lodged through HOCTM can be done
through HOCTM itself or using the HOCIV menu option. The HOCTM menu option
facilitatesthe verification set by set whereas the HOCIV menu option facilitates bulk
verification. You can also use batch verification. This can be done by using the
HOCTV menu option. Here you have to just indicate the zone code, zone date and
the set numbers to be verified. The details of the instruments lodged are not
displayed. This is a Blind verification which can be done only after suspension of
the zone.
MASS VERIFICATION OF LODGED INSTRUMENTS
The mass verification of lodged instruments can be done using the HOCTV menu
option. However, using this menu option you can view all the instruments lodged but not
verified. At one stroke all such instruments can be verified. The following screens
details should be entered.
Zone Date Code: Select or type the zone date and the zone code for which sets are to
be verified.
Start Set No.: Type the range of set numbers starting from which the sets are to be
selected for verification.
End Set No.: Type the end set number must match with the last set number specified
for that zone.
SUSPENSION OF ZONE
A zone has to be suspended once all the instruments are lodged and verified for further
processing on the zone. The zone is suspended to avoid any further entry/lodging of
instruments. i.e., after suspending a zone, no instruments can be lodged, modified, etc.
Verification can be done even after zone is suspended. A zone has to be suspended to
ensure that no more changes are done to the

will be shownas “Fundsin clearing”. Bank/branch can restrict using thebalance for
withdrawal by the customer.
This process will move all the balances which are in unclear balance (Funds in
Clearing) to clear balance and will be available to the customer for withdrawal without
any restrictions. This happens when at the zone level, Shadow bal is enabled. If the
Shadow Bal flag is unchecked, then this process will debit the intermediary account
(credited during the release to shadow balances) and credit the customer‟s accounts
with clear balance.
Regularization of zone in this scenario is done by invoking HMCLZOH menu option with
function “G”orbyinvoking HRZFSBO menuoption. The regularization in this case
happens based on each zone for which the process is initiated. If there are any
instruments which are marked for pending then, regularization to that extent will not
happen i.e., the zone would have been partially regularized. The user has to revoke the
instruments which are marked for pending and then initiate the process again for
complete regularization of the zone.
Note: If there are no instruments which are marked for pending, then the zone is
closedautomatically as a part of the regularization process itself.
REPORT GENERATION
This menu is used to generate a report for outward clearing instrument details for any
given zone and date for a SOL or SOL set id. The screen interface is as under:
REVOKE SUSPENSION
The zone is suspended to avoid any further entry/lodging of instruments and is used just

before further processes on the zone. If the branch wants to lodge some instruments in
a suspended zone, it should revoke the suspension. Suspension of zone is also done
during the end of day to avoid unauthorized entry of instruments. Next day in order to
enable the users to lodge instruments, the suspension has to be revoked and is done
using the above option.
MARK PENDING
MENU: HMARKPEN
In the normal course, any inward clearing instruments received at the branch have to be
returned in the next day‟s outward clearing or same day depending upon the practice
prevailing at the centre. Sometimes, the Bank may not be able to adhere to this
practice. In such circumstances, the Bank informs the presenting branch about the
delay in return of instruments and requests them not to part with the money.

REVOKE PENDING
MENU: HREVPEND
The instruments which are marked pending can be revoked, if required by using the
above menu option. This is generally used when the user has wrongly marked an
instrument as pending. The instruments marked as pending should also be revoked so
that the partially regularized zone can be regularized fully.
An inquiry into the components of available balance for any account is available through
any of the above menu options.
Funds in clearing: This is the sum of un clear balance and Funds in clearing.
Float balance: This is sum of all instruments lodged for BOD date zones
Similar to outward clearing, opening of a zone is the first step in inward clearing
process. The user has to open the zone to enable entry of instruments for the zone. At
the time of opening the zone, the user has to indicate the BAR number,BAR date, BAR
amount and number of instruments. As a part of opening the zone, system populates all
the values defined for that zone defined in HICZCM and if the user wants to make any
changes to the default populated values, he can do so.
The changes could be with regard to Rate code and Rate if it is a multi-currency zone,
change in account numbers, charge event Ids for charge calculations etc. A zone could
be opened for a particular service outlet or for a number of service outlets. If it is to be

NOTE
When Bank„A‟ opens an account with Bank „B‟ (which is located in another country),
then that account is called (from A‟s point of view) a NOSTRO account. The same
account will be called a VOSTRO account (from B‟s point of view). The account will be
generally in B Bank's country currency (In case of ACU countries, the Bank, through
situated in one of ACU countries may hold NOSTRO in USD a/c). This can be set up
through HCBAM option in Finacle.
In export bills, documents go out of the bank and proceeds come into the bank. So the
bill is referred to as Export Bill. In import bills, documents come into the bank and
proceeds go out of the bank. So the bill is referred to as Import bill.
Similarly in case of domestic bills, the bill is referred to as Inland /outward Bill.

As a part of the process of classification, provisioning is the first step for classification of
the asset. Each asset, which is classified, will have two classifications viz.
The classification of an asset is mainly done depending upon the overdue position of
the account, overdue period, and security available to the account. Classification is
based on individual Banks practices and procedure and differs from Bank to Bank and
Country to Country. However the basic principle of classifying the asset remains the
same.
Menu - HSASCL
For each asset, the script name is obtained from the menu option „Scheme /
Register General Parameter Maintenance (HSRGPM)‟ menu option and the asset will
get classified according to the conditions given in the script.
HSASCL menu option can be run in Trial or Update mode. If the „Trial mode‟ field in the
screen is „Y‟ then only report gets generated and the database changes will not occur.
Past due movement of all accounts including Transaction Accounts is enabled in the
existing menu options of HSASCL and HMAPD.
As a part of marking the account as “PastDue” system will transfer the uncollected
interest which is lying in the interest (P&L) account and de-recognise the income. The

incomebooking done for the non performing accounts would be reversed by the Bank.
In some cases, Bank wants to override the classification for various reasons. For this
there is a facility to modify the default/system classification. This can be done by
invoking menu option MEAC - Modify Effective Asset Classification. Any modification
done is stored along with the system classification for future inquiry/information.
User has to give the criteria and <accept> to get the following screen where he will be
able to modify the classification of all the selected records
The cursor is placed in the field “main user classification” of the first record which is
selected (indicated by “*” mark). The user can go to any of the records using the keys
<arrow Down>, <arrow up>, <page up> or <page down>and modify the classification
codes for both main and sub classification. Once the modification is over he can
<commit> for writing it to database.
Using this menu the user can change the classification code for either customer or
Accounts/bills.
ASSET PROVISIONING
Provisioning is a process where in Bank set aside a portion of its profit on a periodical
basis (quarterly, half yearly, yearly etc.) for the purpose of writing off a loan which
cannot be recovered. Provisioning of amount is based on status of the account. Status
here means the classification of the account. As such provisioning is done after an
asset is classified. As there is a feature of default classification based on DPD, there is
a feature of default provisioning also based on a set up.

AMORTIZATION OF CHARGES
MENU OPTION –HCAM
As the charges collected on a DC event for future period, banks may like to treat the
charges as “ADVANCE INCOME” at the time of collection and may like to amortise the
same over the period of the DC. Facility is available in the system to do the same.
Chargescan be amortized in charge collection currency only. Charges are amortized
from the issuedate of the DC. Charges are amortized up to the Expiry date of the DC.
Income account will not be credited at time of issue of DC, but will be credited only at
the end of each amortization period (depending on amortization frequency), after
amortization process is run.
Let us assume that a bank has earned an income of INR 1000 on issuance of a DC.
The tenor of the DC spans for 1 year and the bank recognizes all income falling due in a
quarter as income earned into its P&L account. Based on this, INR 750 / - needs to be
credited to the Income earned in Advance account and INR 250/- to be credited to P&L
for charges pertaining to the running quarter, on the last day of that quarter. At the end
of one year, the entire amount would have been transferred to the credit of the P&L
account.
An example for the above process can be Let us assume that a DC with a tenor of one
year opened for USD 100000. Charges collected are INR 12000, amortized over a
period of 12 months.

System to calculate the “Per Day” charge levied by the bank to the customer,
i.e. INR 12000 / 365 = INR 32.87 / Day
Step 2
On the date of Amortization, (derived based on the frequency specified by the user) the
amount to be transferred to the P&L account, i.e. On 31st Jan in above example,
amount to be transferred to P&L would be INR 32.87 X 30days = INR 1019.178. This
process should be continued till the expiry date. On the last day of amortization, the
remaining balance in the advance account will be completely reversed, as the entire
commission would have been transferred to the P&L.
Step 3
Amendment to the Instrument where the period can be extended/new charge can be
collected during the lifetime of the DC.
The menu option to be invoked for amortizing the charges manually/online mode is
HCAM. The Screen interface is given below:
Collect Today flag -It is default populated as „N‟. If theHCAMisrun with valuesetto “Y‟,
then the entire un amortised amount will be amortised immediately. User would resort to
this, when he does not want to wait till the next amortisationfrequency for amortising the
charges collected. Ideally this may be the case when
The amortisation process can be also automated i.e., can be set as a batch job through

It is also possible to set the amortisation process of a batch job, to ensure that the
amortisation happens at a pre-determined frequency. However, Bank may want to
amortise the entire commission collected in some cases, without following the frequency
defined, e.g., where a BG/DC is pre-closed or when the commission amount is equal to
minimum commission.
One job for regular amortization, (with frequency set as per the bank‟s policy).The other
job is to be set with frequency as daily and “Collect TodayFlag” = Y. Itwill pickup all the

Charge amount is less than the minimum amount for amortization (set up in
HPTTM).

OVERVIEW
Finacle stores signatures and photographs of customers and its employees through
Signature Verification System. This system can be used to scan the image of the
customer and store in the database and later use the signature for verification at the
time of doing atransaction. This also helps in automating the process of verification of
the signatures during normal business operations thus reducing the effort and time.
SVS stores photographs and signatures of banking customers in its database and
fetches them quickly when required.
SVS has multiple menus like User Group, Admin, User, Rule, Signature, Photograph,
Verify, Audit Info, Change Password and Logout in the main screen. Most of the menus
have common options like add for adding a new record, update to update an existing
record and delete for deleting a record.
Steps to create a new user in SVS for viewing and administrating signatures: -

access tomultiple options in SVS. Under the user group management bank can perform
operations like add, update, delete, purge, recover and upload.
Enter a unique name for the user group and a description. You can attach Image
Access Codes to the User Groups and unless an image access code is assigned to a
user group no user who belongs to that User Group will be able to access the images
which have the same image access code. Each User Group can have more than one
Image Access Codes. Images access codes are the codes which are created in order to
restrict a user from viewing a specific signature or photograph.
In the User Group menu, click Update. All the existing user groups along with ids and
description are displayed. User is allowed to change the name as well as description of
the user group. To update a user group, edit the name/description, check the Update
checkbox next to the user group, and click on SUBMIT.
Administrative operations can be carried out using the Admin menu. User can assign
roles and maintain Application parameter, Session, Users and Account Status. Also

MAINTAIN ROLES
Assign Role
This option can be used to assign or remove permissions to the various user groups.
The roles are basically the permissions/access rights assigned to various user groups
based on their operations. For example a Teller is responsible only to view the signature
and he is not associated with creation of users and user groups. So he needs access to
menu related to signature like add, update, delete, etc.
In order to assign permissions or define roles select Role under the Admin menu. In the
Assign Role screen all the user groups are listed. Select the user group for which
youwant to assign permissions.
MAINTAIN USERS
Under Administration Action, through the maintain User option, we can do the routine
user management operations like add, update, delete, purge, recover and upload. The
User ID has to be entered along with the UserGroup.
MAINTAIN RULE
Rules are basically conditions defined by an account holder for performing a banking
transaction. These rules generally refer to the conditions required for verifying
signatures and photographs. For each banking transaction, whenever a signature
comes for verification, the operator applies these rules for verifying the signatures
and/or photographs
