A4SWIFT
A complete FIN application integration platform, based on Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004, for rapid connection of existing systems with SWIFT Alliance products. A4SWIFT provides a SWIFT-specific development environment for the implementation of front-end processing tasks to facilitate communication among SWIFT counterparties, internal systems, trading partners, correspondents, customers, and infrastructures. Features include the use of business rules to implement network/usage rules and business practices, support for the full SWIFT MT and MX message library as well as legacy messages. In addition to the connectivity to FIN through SAA, FileAct and InterAct are supported using the standard BizTalk File and MQ Series Adapters.

CB.Net
The Bureau’s middleware applications can improve STP for all customers. This could be basic field re-formatting or more complex payment reference data lookups. Microsoft’s BizTalk Accelerator A4SWIFT is typically used for standard middleware implementations, and CB.Net reference data for lookups.

Reporting
SIDE’s suite of reporting products are available on the Bureau to produce any statistical, traffic, history and audit reports. Bespoke reports can be developed to present any transaction data in any format required.

Duplicate Detection
Another SIDE Product, DDA, runs on the bureau to identify and optionally block the processing of duplicate transactions or files.
