Abstract: A Unique Transaction Identifier Generator (UTIG) is used to centralize and standardize the Unique Transaction Identifier (UTI) process by either (a) generating and creating, (b) assigning, (c) matching, (d) enriching or (e) distributing one or more unique identifier(s) for one or more transactions by and between one or more parties. The generator creates, assigns, matches, enriches and/or distributes one or more unique trade identifiers based on rules applied and is capable of using prefix, mathematics or simple linear count which will ensure the generation of unique data. This methodology allows the parties, their counterparts, third-party service providers and also internal hierarchy structures to maintain uniqueness.
