Verify SWIFT Messages

The Verifier may not create messages using the SWIFT Message Entry Workstation, but may only verify and validate existing messages.

The following caveats apply to the Verifier role:

  • The Verifier uses the SWIFT Editor in read-only mode.
  • All groups and records in the message can be collapsed and expanded (as needed) so you can focus your viewing of specific parts of the message.
  • Clicking info in the Change Report (displayed on the left side of the SWIFT Editor page) displays the details of the changes made for reference.
    Note: When you view a change report in the Message Entry Workstation, if you select the error code link it may not direct you to the field with the error. If this occurs, select the field link instead of the error code link.

To search a message, the verifier performs the following actions:

Note: If you click Cancel in the SWIFT Document Editor, you will be asked for a confirmation. Click Yes on the Confirmation dialog box and a Cancel screen with a status bar is displayed. Once the status of the cancellation is complete, click Return to return to the main page
  1. From the Administration menu, select Business Process > Message Entry Workstation.
  2. The Verifier searches for a SWIFT message based on the search criteria described in Table 1.
  3. After searching for a SWIFT message (using the procedure for searching a message as described in the section Search for a SWIFT Message), select it and click Send. The SWIFT Editor is displayed in read-only mode.
  4. When you are finished auditing the entire message, click Next.
  5. In the Confirm page, specify how you want to handle this message by performing one of the following options:
    • Select the action Send to invoke a business process. The default business process is SWIFTMessageEntryOutbound). This business process looks up the envelope that is used to send the message.
      Note: If during the message creation process, the Sender ID and Receiver ID were specified for the message, the values for those parameters are automatically populated to these fields and you are unable to modify the values.
    • Select the action Reject (optionally, you can provide reason for rejection). The Reject action updates the message to Rejected status. For each Rejected message, the Creator must make the necessary edits prior to marking the document Ready for Resend. (Please note that this document must be updated if the feature of a mail being sent to the Creators’ mailbox when a message is rejected is introduced.)
      Note: By default, the business process used for Execute Business Process is SWIFTMessageEntryOutbound, which is specified in the messageentryworkstation.properties.in property file. If you want to specify a different business process, you must add the name of that business process to the customer_overrides.properties file in the following format: envelope.messageentry=NameOfBusinessProcess (where NameOfBusinessProcess is the name of the business process).
  6. Review the Confirm page and click Finish.
    Note: The Verifier can only access documents with Ready to Send status. The Verifier is not able to take any action on a message with any other status.
  7. An e-mail alert is sent when the status of the message is changed from READY TO SEND to REJECTED. The e-mail alert is sent to the user who last modified the message (not necessarily the user who created it). An e-mail address is specified for each user when the system administrator creates the user accounts.
    Note: If no e-mail address is specified for the user who last modified the message, the system checks for the e-mail address specified in the messageentryworkstation.properties.in property file. If neither e-mail address is specified, the system searches for the e-mail address specified in the entry messageentry.SWIFT.REJECT.default which is available in the messageentryworkstation.properties.in property file. By default, this is the e-mail address of the system administrator. You can change this e-mail address by editing the customer_overrides.properties file in the following format: messageentry.SWIFT.<username>.mailid = e-mail address of the Creator or the person who last edited the message, where username is the user who marks the message as REJECTED.
