Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a re-enter transmission transaction system for currency exchange data within a terminal control device.

[Conventional technology]

For example, as shown in FIG. 3, a data processing system of a financial institution such as a bank includes a center 10 equipped with a large computer, a terminal controller (TC) 12,
The configuration includes modems 14 and 16, a modem adapter 18, a switch box 20, and terminal devices 22 and 24. For financial transactions such as deposits and withdrawals, data is entered by operating the keyboard of the terminal device, a response is requested from the center that holds each customer's account, and cash is transferred to and received from the customer and bankbook entries are made. Such normal financial transactions are conducted online, and as soon as data is entered from the terminal (however, a busy check is performed on the communication line, etc.), it is sent to the center, and a reply is received from the center.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

On the other hand, in exchange transactions where cash is paid or a certain amount is debited from one account and transferred to another account,
There are transactions that are dated in the past, such as transfers to the account on the date of the month and day, and there is no need to process these types of transactions online. Conventionally, exchange transaction data is punched and recorded (stored) on a paper tape in the terminal control device, and a transmission request is made from the terminal on the day of the transfer at a time when there are few running jobs and the calculator is idle, such as in the morning. (transaction of re-entering exchange data). In this case as well, if there is a transmission request, the exchange reserve data of the terminal control device is immediately sent to the center, and the job running state of the center is not taken into account. Therefore, if the center is busy when a transmission request is made, the response will be low.

The present invention is an attempt to improve the above-mentioned problem, and to perform re-entrant transmission transactions in consideration of the transaction processing status on the center side.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention stores exchange transaction data from a terminal device in a storage device of a terminal control device, and when there is a re-enter transmission transaction from the terminal device, the terminal control device transmits specified collection data to a center. In the data reentrant transmission transaction method, when there is a reentrant transmission transaction, the terminal control device sends a message to the center inquiring whether the transaction can be accepted, and the center determines whether the transaction can be accepted based on predetermined criteria. /A message indicating that the data is not accepted is sent to the terminal control device, and if the data is allowed, the terminal control device starts transmitting the collection data to the center.

[Effect]

When a re-enter transmission transaction is notified from the terminal device to the terminal control device, the terminal control device sends a message to the center asking whether or not the center will be able to accept the transmission transaction of exchange rate data. The side checks the busy/quiet status of job processing and returns a response message indicating whether the job is acceptable or not, and when the job is acceptable, the terminal control device edits the collected data on the disk (storage device) and starts sending. This changes the conventional terminal-driven type to a center-driven type, and enables re-entrant transmission that fully takes into account the operational status of the center.

〔Example〕

To explain with the drawings, the exchange transaction data of the previous date inputted from the terminal devices 22 and 24 is stored in the storage device (disk) 12A of the terminal control device (TC) 12.
The funds are accumulated separately for each transfer date. Exchange transactions for the same day are processed online in the same way as regular transactions, and the terminal device is therefore capable of both regular (same-day) exchange transactions and separate exchange transactions (online exchange transaction codes and exchange transactions). (Prepare an exchange transaction code).

As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, when a re-enter transmission transaction of exchange deposit data is performed from the terminal device UBT, the TC directly notifies the center of the upstream message from the UBT, and the transmission transaction is sent to the center. Ask if it is possible. Upon receiving this, the center checks whether the transmission transaction is possible. Conditions (criteria) for not allowing outbound transactions include the following: If none of these apply, outbound transactions are allowed, and if any of them fall in, outbound transactions are prohibited.

The "sending date" data in the message requesting permission to send is out of permissible range, center failure, online not started, online completed, exchange operations not started,
Exchange business completed.

If the center is in a state where it can receive outgoing transactions (Figure 1), it will return a normal type response message, and if it is not in a state where it can receive them (Figure 2), it will return an abnormal type response message and permit the outgoing transaction. or not permitted. In the TC, if the message type of the response message is abnormal, it is output to the terminal that conducted the transaction with a transaction disapproval message from the center, and if the message type of the response message is normal, it is output to the TC's storage device 12A. Reads the batch file in the terminal and starts data transmission to the center one by one from the start number data to the end number data specified by the terminal, or from the beginning of the batch data for the current day (INQ/ANS format). in).

If the response message from the center indicates that the transaction is not permitted, the TC does not send the billing data to the host, and in this case, the terminal must perform a re-entrant transmission transaction for the exchange billing data. When the TC transmits batch data to the center, the terminal is notified of the number of data currently being transmitted, and this is displayed on the terminal's display.

The center checks the exchange settlement date sent from the TC, and if the data is correct, returns a normal type response message, and if there is an error in the data, returns an abnormal type response message. In the case of an error, the center also notifies the details of the error in a response message. This is sent from the TC to the terminal and printed on the terminal's passbook printer. Also write in electronic journals.

Regardless of whether the response message is normal or abnormal, the TC continues the transmission process up to the specified final data. It then checks whether there is any data left to send next, and if there is no data left, it outputs a message to the terminal indicating that the transaction has ended.
If there is any remaining data, transmit the next data. In addition, when the TC receives a transmission completion notification from the center for transmission data, it updates the flag of the data from unsent to sent, and even after sending the data to the center, the collected data is saved in the TC, and the data is sent from the terminal. transaction inquiry,
Deal with data queries.

Regarding the collection data for which an abnormality is notified in the response message, the terminal checks the data, corrects the error, and performs the transmission transaction again. The transaction at this time does not have to be a transaction, but may be an online transaction.

After all transaction data stored in the TC has been sent to the center, the transaction data stored in the TC can be deleted by performing a transaction to clear the stored data from the terminal.

If a terminal hardware failure, TC hardware failure, telegram error, or round failure occurs during the transmission of collection data, the transmission transaction will be immediately cancelled. It is also assumed that transmission transactions cannot be performed simultaneously from multiple terminals at the same store.
In addition, in order to perform a re-enter transmission transaction of exchange deposit data, the terminal, TC, and host must be online and must be in operation of exchange operations.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, when re-entering a transaction, the TC visits the host and sends a message, and the transaction is permitted/disallowed depending on the processing status of the host, so that the re-entering transaction is changed from terminal-driven to center-driven. This makes it possible to perform reentrant transmission taking into consideration the operational status of the center.
