  • Publication number: 20140207664
    Abstract: An automated process for processing application data related to agent on-boarding in a money transfer system includes proforma subprocessing to pre-qualify the application data, analysis subprocessing to analyze the application data, set-up subprocessing to set up agents on the money transfer system and training subprocessing to train the agents on services provided by the money transfer system. Each of the subprocesses accepts an administrator input in response to the application data. In response to the administrator input, each of the subprocesses has an outcome that is one of forwarding the data, denying the data, notifying an originator of the application data and requesting additional data.
