Restrict user(s) from authorize transaction having limit 10 M above.

HI,

My requirement is to restrict user(s) from authorize transaction having transaction Amount greater than 10 million, it will be authorised by Manager and above. How to perform this task by using routine ??

Hi
though the standard approach is to set up OVERRIDE, OVERRIDE.CLASS and DISPO, it might be a nightmare to setup and use, especially DISPO...

The quick way - with a routine - to create an INPUT routine (in non-manager VERSION) where you check transaction amount and raise an error if it exceeds the threshold.

.. actually AUTH routine might be a better place for it...

authorization routine is not working on FastPath enquiry, unable to raise Error and restrict transaction while authorization.

hi
you can add it to VERSION.CONTROL, setting NON.VERSION.RUN to Y.

The problem with authorization routines is that they are not designed to do any validations or block anything. Even if you raise an error in auth routine the transaction will most likely go through. If I have to limit at authorization using a version routine I would probably work with ID routine and block the user from opening the transaction in the first place (Like Temenos has implemented for same inputter/authorizer).

Another challenge with version routines is that you have to be sure the version either has the routine attached, or is linked to the version control.

I'm interested to know which solution worked. 

If still an open issue you could try global constraints to raise override for all txns over 10M then create an override class and assign it only to the users that are allowed to authorize above the limit.

Hi
Last time I checked setting E variable in AUTH routine stops the processing.
 

Oh, that's awesome. I'll try it
