About Urbis

The usage of the product name Urbis is due to be phased out as part of the Unisys re-branding

exercise. The replacement will be the generic term "Banking Back-Office Processing" solution or

"Banking Back-Office" for short. To provide continuity with existing product documentation, the

name Urbis is used within this document, but is synonymous with Banking Back-Office

Processing.

Screen Flow

The data entry screens used to set up and maintain access security are illustrated below:

Define the printers in the network Terminal Printer Address (PRNTR)

Define the user of terminals (stations) in the network Stations (STNS) Define access groups and operations allowed to members of each access group Access Group Parameters (ACGRP) Access Groups (ACCES) Define attributes for users of the

system (see "Setting Up Users") for more

information Users (USERS) Users Maintenance/ Authorisation (USERM) Dealers and Officers (DEALR)

Update the user

passwords Passwords

(PWORD)

Figure 1-1. Flow of Access Security Screens

Note

: Usage of access security screens shown in the above diagram should be restricted so that

changes may only be performed by authorised users.

(18)

Access Security

Prerequisites

There are no prerequisites to setting up printers or stations.

To set up access groups, operations and reports are supplied as standard. For systems that are

customized, they must be set up, see the Setting Up Operations (OPERS) screen and the Reports

Maintenance (REPS) screen.

To set up usercodes, accounting centres must be set up. Accounting centres are set up on the

Accounting Centres Maintenance (ACNTM) screen.

User Codes and Passwords

To use the system, each user must enter a User Code and password to log on to the system.

Passwords should be regarded as highly confidential. They should be recorded in documents that

are housed in a secure location and should be known only to supervisory staff and the user

concerned. Usercodes and passwords are held on the Users (USERS) table. Specific rules for

password expiry can be defined using the Users (USERS) screen. For example, these rules allow

temporary users of the system to be set up by entering a password expiry date and preventing

password update on expiry.

General rules regarding password maintenance can be controlled using the following blueprint

parameters:

BP-PWRD-DAYS: The number of days for which a password is valid before the user must

update it

BP-PWRD-REMIND: The number of days prior to password expiry that the user will be

prompted to update it

BP-PWRD-MAX: The maximum number of characters allowed in a password

BP-PWRD-MIN: The minimum number of characters allowed in a password

BP-PWRD-MAXA: The maximum number of alphabetic characters that are allowed in a

password

BP-PWRD-MINA: The minimum number of alphabetic characters that are allowed in a

password

BP-PWRD-MAXN: The maximum number of numeric characters that are allowed in a

password

BP-PWRD-MINN: The minimum number of numeric characters that are allowed in a

password

BP-PWRD-CONCR: Indicates whether groups of three characters (such as abc) can be

repeated in a password

BP-PWRD-USRCON: Indicates whether the first three characters of the usercode can be

used in a password

BP-PWRD-READS: The amount of the user's previous passwords that will be stored so that

they cannot be used again

BP-PWRD-DEF: The password that must be used for a new user if you want the user to be

prompted to enter a new password when they first attempt to logon to Urbis

(19)

3937 0879-930

1–3

Note

: If BP-PWRD-MAXA, BP-PWRD-MINA, BP-PWRD-MAXN and BP-PWRD-MINN are all

set to zero, then the number of alphabetic and numeric characters that make up the password is

not controlled.

User access can also be restricted to specific terminals through the use of “station passwords”.

The user must enter this password to log on to the system at the station. A record must be set up

on the Stations (STNS) table to enable a terminal to access the system.

Access Groups

Every user is assigned to an access group. Each access group defines a set of operations (or

screens) and reports that users in the group can access (see “Setting up Access Groups” later in

this section).

A single access group code can be assigned to any number of users. Consequently, it is only

necessary to define the scope of a particular access group once. When you add new users

requiring the same access capabilities, they can be entered as members of an existing access

group.

(20)

Setting up Printers and Stations

Terminal Printer Address (PRNTR)

Each terminal used by the system can be linked to a printer for printing of, for example,

confirmations and payments. The name (address) of each printer must be entered before the

facility can be used.

The Terminal Printer Address (PRNTR) screen is used to add, delete or inquire on the names of

the printers.

To delete a printer, leave the “Starting Terminal Printer Address” field blank, select the "Delete"

field next to the 'Terminal Printer Address' you want to delete and click Delete

The following figure shows an example of the Terminal Printer Address screen.

(21)

3937 0879-930

1–5

Stations Maintenance (STNS)

You must make an entry on the Stations table for each station (terminal) on which the system is

used. Details of stations are entered and maintained on the Stations Maintenance (STNS) screen.

For each station, the following items are defined on this table:

The station name

The name of an associated printer

The names of the default printers used for confirmations and payments

The station status

The address

The station password

When users log on, they must enter the station password. It is, therefore, important that you keep

a record of the station password for each station. Stations can also be enabled and disabled using

this screen.

Note

: The printer names must have been set up on the Terminal Printer Address (PRNTR) screen.

The following figure shows an example of the Stations Maintenance screen.

(22)

Setting up Access Groups

It is important that you prepare details of the access security you want before you enter them into

the system. The following procedures give one method of doing this:

1. Draw up a matrix for each department. List members of staff who will be using the system

along the top of the matrix and list the operations and reports on the left hand side (see

Table 1-1).

2. Place a cross against the operations and reports each member of staff can access (see

Table 1-1).

Table 1–1. The Access Matrix

Operation or Report A. Smith B. Brown C. Jones D. Evans

Add Client X X X X

Change Client X X

Add Client Account X Client Balance Report X X Create Product Template X

3. Compare the access requirements of each user and group those with the same requirements.

These groups form the access groups you require for the department.

The example in Table 1-1 suggests three access groups, one for A Smith, one for B Brown,

and one for C. Jones and D. Evans.

4. Assign a usercode and password to each user.

5. Assign a station password to each terminal to be used to access the system.

6. Enter

the

information.

Note

: Before you begin entry of access groups you must ensure that all reports and all the

operations (for example Add, Change) for each screen are defined. See Section 5 "Operational

Data" for full details.

Before inquiring on a report or operation number, you must identify the correct operation on the

Setting Up Operations (OPERS) screen.

There are two screens that you must complete to set up an access group:

Access Groups Maintenance (ACGRP)

(23)

3937 0879-930

1–7

Access Groups Maintenance (ACGRP)

Each user is assigned to an access group. The access group defines the operations and reports that

members of the group can use.

The Access Groups Maintenance (ACGRP) screen is used to select the access group that you

want to create or change. Enter the access group name, indicate whether the group is for

“Operations” or “Reports” and enter the operation or report number from which you want the

display to start. Click either the Add, Change, or Inquire button. The Access Group

Authorisation (ACCES) screen is displayed.

To delete an access group, you must first delete all users still associated with that access group.

The following figure shows an example of the Access Groups Maintenance screen.

(24)

Access Group Authorisation (ACCES)

The Access Group Authorisation screen is used to define the operations or reports that users

linked to a particular access group can use. You link users to a group on the Users Maintenance

(USERS) screen. This screen can only be accessed from the Access Groups Maintenance

(ACGRP) screen.

Each report and operation is assigned a number, during installation. All valid operations or

reports are listed on the Access Group Authorisation screen (ACCES) in numerical order. Against

each one is an authorisation indicator.

To authorise a report or operation for a user group switch 'On' the “New Authorised” field

adjacent to the report or operation and click the OK button. To stop a user group from using a

report or operation, switch 'Off' the "New Authorised Field" adjacent to the report or operation

and click the Ok button.

The following figure shows an example of the Access Group Authorisation screen.

(25)

3937 0879-930

1–9

Setting up Users

There are two separate methods in Urbis that can be used to set-up and maintain user information.

Only one of these methods can be in use at any given time. The following two methods are

available:

User Entry and Maintenance Without Authorisation. A user can add, change, or delete user

details; the changes made are applied straight away, and do not have to be authorised. All

changes are made on the Users Maintenance (USERS) screen.

User Entry and Maintenance With Authorisation. A user can add, change, or delete user

details; the changes made are not applied until authorised. All changes are made on the Users

Maintenance and Authorisation (USERM) screen. When the information is transmitted from

this screen, the change is sent to the users authorisation queue, where a user can authorise the

changes. The users authorisation queue can be seen on the User Authorisation Queue

(USERA) screen.

The following blueprints control user authorisation:

Blueprint BP-ATH-REQ-USERM – if set to Y, makes the authorisation queue mandatory.

The user cannot be used in the system unless authorised and cleared from the queue.

Blueprint BP-SAME-USER-ATH – if set to Y, enables the same user who

entered/changed/deleted the user details to authorise the same. If set to N, another staff

member who has been given authorisation permission in the system must authorise the client

details.

(26)

User Details

For each person who is to use the system, a single user must be entered which assigns a user

name and the core information that defines a user. This includes the following:

The usercode and password. To make the user change the password at initial logon, the

password must be left blank

The accounting centre to which the user belongs

The number of minutes after which the user is logged off if the terminal is not used

The access group to which the user belongs

Audit Inquiries

The audit features contained in Urbis allow you to record details of how Urbis is being used.

Every time a screen is used, Urbis will record what was done on the screen and by which user.

The audit record also shows the machine time and date, not the on-line time and date. These

records can then be accessed and displayed on various audit inquiry screens. The audit inquiry

screens are shown below:

Audit Inquiry by Screen (AUDSQ)

Audit Inquiry by User (AUDUQ)

Audit Details Inquiry (AUDIQ)

Error Message Audit Inquiry (AUEMQ)

Auditing in Urbis is controlled by the blueprint parameter BP-AUDIT-REQD, described in

Appendix A, Retail Blueprint Parameters. This determines whether auditing takes place in your

system. It can be set to:

Yes (Y) - Allow all the auditing facilities to work in your system. This is the default value.

No (N) - Do not allow any of the auditing facilities to work in your system

(34)

Audit Inquiry by Screen (AUDSQ)

Use this screen to display audit records for a screen. Inquiring on a particular screen will recall all

the records of the usage of that screen. To inquire enter the date and time you want to start your

inquiry from in the Next Date and Next Time fields. Alternatively, you can enter the audit

number you want to search from using the Next Number field.

The following information is displayed for each screen:

Error: An asterix will be shown in this field if the particular record of usage relates to an

error. You can then link to the Error Message Audit Inquiry (AUEMQ) screen to see what the

error was.

Date and Time: This is the date and time the screen was called.

Audit Number: The number given to the record.

Currencies (CCYS)

Details of the currencies in which your bank deals are held in the Currencies (CCYS) table. On

this table you define the following for each currency:

The mnemonic used for data entry and the full name of the currency

The country of the currency

The truncation factor determining how amounts will appear on summary reports

The number of decimal places for the currency

The type of rounding to be used for this currency. This will apply to all calculations for this

currency, and can either be rounding to the nearest amount, or rounding down. The type of

rounding suitable will depend on the currency. For example, for Japanese Yen, rounding

down is required. (Currency rounding does not apply to the Loans Administration module).

Note:

Once installation is complete you cannot delete a currency from the system.

You may also define a composite currency on this screen. To indicate a composite currency,

switch 'On' the “Group Currency” field.

You now enter the mnemonics of the currencies that form the components of the composite

currency, together with the percentage each currency contributes towards the composite currency.

Currencies forming part of the composite currency must first be defined themselves within the

system.

The EMU Phase field relates to those currencies participating in Economic and Monetary Union

(EMU). It shows what phase of conversion the currency has reached. The phase of conversion

that a currency has reached should be updated, even if you're institution is in a country not

participating in the EMU. There is more information on the EMU in Appendix D, Euro Related

Information.

(56)

The following figure shows an example of the Currencies screen.

Figure 2–9. Currencies screen

Currency Shift Factors

The currency shift factor functionality is designed to help entry of currencies with large exchange

rates compared to the base currency. Amount entry fields only allow entry of 14 figures and 3

decimal places. When a currency has an exchange rate thousands of times more than the system

base currency, then the largest enterable amount is restricted. The currency shift factor provides a

method of reducing the size of currencies with large exchange rates, by removing three

(57)

3937 0879-930

2–15

When activated the currency shift factor removes the last three figures from an amount, and shifts

the decimal point three places to the left. For example 1200300.400 would be stored as 1200.300.

This means a number a thousand time larger can be stored. As the number of figures in the

amount is reduced, information about the final three figures is lost, making it important to account

for this when entering amounts into the system. On inquiry screens and reports, amounts in

shifted currencies are displayed as unshifted amounts.

The shift factor also has an impact on exchange rate figures. With no shift factor set, the

maximum size of an exchange rate is 9999.99999999 and the minimum value is

-9999.99999999. The shift factor affects the exchange rate maximum and minimum values in the

following way:

Shift Factor Minimum Rate Maximum Rate

Accounting Centre and Dates

Maintenance

Introduction to Accounting Centres and Dates

Maintenance

Before attempting to set up accounting centre or date information, you must be familiar with

'How to Enter and Change Data' as described in the

Starters Guide to Retail.

This section describes how to configure the Urbis system to represent the structure of your

institution. Also described is how to set basic parameters for the entire system, and for individual

branches.

(60)

System Structure

Urbis is structured according to a four tier hierarchy that can be used to represent a multi-branch

or multi-company environment. The following diagram shows the relationships between elements

in the structure. Each element represents a level within your organisation.

Figure 3-1. Structure of Urbis

The structure of an organisation forms one operating unit. The basic operating unit is the

accounting centre, comprising of a sector, sub-sector and profit centre. Each accounting centre is

connected to one location that can be any location. This means that sectors and sub-sectors can be

related to various locations, however each profit centre is only related to one location.

Most activities in Urbis are undertaken at accounting centre level, and even though this also

defines a location for the activity, the location is not seen. Every transaction is attributable to an

accounting centre. Every user belongs to an accounting centre and all their transactions

automatically contribute to it (this can be overridden at transaction level). In turn each accounting

centre and each user also belong to a location and all their transactions automatically contribute to

it.

Information on the activities in a system is drawn together to make reports and calculate total

balances across your institution. These calculations involve the consolidation of figures either

vertically through the system, via the accounting centre, or horizontally across the system via the

location.

(61)

3937 0879-930

An example of how these four definitions can interact to define an institution:

Sector - Could define the head office (for example, in France)

Sub Sector - Could define branches in different countries (for example, in China, Japan,

America and Germany)

Profit Centre - Could define dealers in the branches.

Location - Could define geographical regions for consolidation of information (for example,

Europe, Asia, North America). However, dealers from the China branch, working in Britain

could come under either the Europe or Asia location.

System Parameters

Once the structure of the Urbis system has been established, various system parameters can be set

up that cover all of or parts of that structure. For system parameters, there is a three level

hierarchy:

System level. This covers the entire system, any parameter set here will apply to all parts of

Urbis. Set on the System Parameters (SPMTR) screen.

Location Level. This covers all accounting centres linked to that location, and all parameters

applied to that location will apply to all these accounting centres. Set on the Location

Maintenance (LOCTM) screen.

Accounting Centre Level. This covers individual accounting centres, and all parameters

applied to an accounting centre only affect that accounting centre. Set on the Accounting

Centres Maintenance (ACNTM) screen.

While many of the parameters on these three screens only appear on one of the screens (and

therefore affect everything at that level and below), there are two that appear on more than one.

These parameters are: Currency and Exchange Rate Group.

The following screens are described in this section:

System Dates (DATES)

Location Maintenance (LOCTM)

Accounting Centres Maintenance (ACNTM)

Profit Period Dates (PPDAT)

Cross Accounting Centre Rules (ACRLM)

System Parameters (SPMTR)

(64)

System Dates (DATES)

When you first install the software and the static database, skeleton data is set up in the System

Dates table (DATES) and the System Parameters (SPMTR) table. You can add additional data,

such as the profit period dates, to the Dates table at any stage during this phase of installation, but

not thereafter.

After installation, when the installation complete indicator has been set, the System Dates table

cannot be changed. The dates are maintained automatically and you can only inquire on them.

Caution

Extreme care should be exercised when setting up or amending dates. This

will have a significant impact on the way in which the system reflects your

business.

If you manually set the “Current Profit Period Number” you must ensure that

this value is consistent with the “Period Number” on the Profit Period Dates

(PPDAT) screen.

Two entries are held on this table, one for on-line processing and one for off-line processing.

Only the change option is available with this screen.

Location Maintenance (LOCTM)

Use this screen to define location codes. The Location Code groups together accounting centres

into geographical regions, such as country, region or continent. Defining a default value for a

location will affect all the accounting centres associated with it. For example, setting the base

currency here will define this for all accounting centres attached to the location.

You must enter the following information on this screen:

Location: A mnemonic used to represent the location

Location Long Name: The name of the region

Base Currency: The currency you want to represent the location

Base Country: For a group of countries, this field will define the base country

Language: The primary language of the location

Exchange Rate Group: This is the exchange rate group used when reports are run at location

level (see
