| UN/ECE - P4. Finance Business Process Modelling |
Project leader: Mike Adcock ( Michael.Adcock@apacs.org.uk)
1. Objectives
1.1 Purpose
The purpose of the project is to create Business Process Models as a means
for documenting the business processes in the complete cycle of financial
payment, advice and statement.
1.2 Scope
The scope for this project assumes the adoption of UML (the Unified Modelling
Language)
The area of financial processes and messaging to be covered is the complete
cycle of payment, advice and statement creation and handling between customers
of financial institutions, the financial institutions and their agents. It
includes domestic and international environments, payments (credit transfers and
direct debits), covering all means/types of payment
2. Deliverables
The deliverables from the project are:
- A catalogue of Business Process Models covering the Financial Payment
functional area
- A guide for users which enables them to select the model appropriate to
their need
- Scope definition of each business scenario necessary to establish a
comprehensive range of different business scenarios that occur within the
payment cycle and all its manifestations.
3. Functional Expertise of Membership
The project team is a group of experts with broad knowledge in the areas of
e-Business and most particularly in FINANCIAL PAYMENT CYCLE BUSINESS SYSTEMS,
from the perspective of both the bank customers and banks.
Note: The project team already exists and is in operation. It has been drawn
from SWG D6 Finance resources. Each UN/CEFACT head of delegation may designate
one or more additional experts to the group. In doing so, they may
delegate this task to one or more organizations, which may be national, regional
or international. Experts are expected to contribute to the work based solely on
their expertise.
4. Focus
The focus is global and cross-sectorial within the functional area of the
financial payment cycle.
5. Initial Contributions
The following contributions are submitted as part of this proposal.:
- Domestic Payment Use Case 1 version 0.2
- Domestic Pre-authorised DD Use Case 1 version 0.1
- SWIFT Repository of models and database from Statements, Advice,
e-payments, & Query/Response work
- SWG D6 Finance Business Information Guide (BIG)
Note: These are for consideration by the project team. Other participants are
expected to submit their own contributions in order to ensure the gathering of
as much information as possible from those with expertise and a material
interest in the project but at the same time allow diverse voices to comment on
the details of the projects and ensures that no single organization can dominate
the process.
Statement of resource requirements
Resources required are business user experts with a broad knowledge in the
area of e-Business and FINANCIAL BUSINESS SYSTEMS, from both the bank customers’
and banks’ perspectives. Modelling expertise is also required within the
group.
Note: The project does not require any additional resources from the UN/ECE
secretariat. Modelling expertise and project management are available and have
already been assigned from within the functional area as follows:
- Existing Task Force Leader: Mike Adcock, APACS
- Modellers: SWIFT Standards Unit + APACS Standards Unit
