DELIVERY MESSAGES

How delivery system works in T24?

• In T24 delivery system provides the ability for user defined routines
for mapping
• messages, control of disposition, processing SWIFT interfaces, and for
formatting inward
• and outward Swift messages.
• The process of sending advices is achieved through a module in T24
called ‘DELIVERY’
• The Delivery System manages the flow of all messages from T24, such
as
• confirmations,
• payments and
• advices
For example:
When a Funds Transfer transaction is entered
and approved
It usually requires sending of a credit advice to
one address and a debit advice to another,
together with one or more payment messages.

used for running the Close of Business processes (COB).

SWIFT.OUT/IN,PRINT.OUT/IN, on TSA.SERVICE
• Each service can be run separately and given the
appropriate number of agents to deal with the volume for
that carrier

• It is a file containing a single record that holds a
number of parameters for controlling the
processing of messages.
• Parameters that allow the operator to shut down
the carrier control modules, and the inward and
outward formatting modules.
• Shut-down can be:
– Urgent (after the message currently being processed.)
– Normal (when all queues have been processed.)

advice, specify headings (if any), the
indentation, the position of fields etc.
DE.FORMAT.PRINT
