Abstract: A system, method and carrier medium for modeling a Financial Service Organization (FSO) business in a computer software program and for storing the model of the FSO business in a database. An object-oriented business model representing the FSO may be created and stored in a business model database. The one or more business objects included in the business model may be configured to describe various products, methods, functions and properties associated with an FSO. A process map business object may describe a process workflow. The process workflow may identify a sequence of tasks to be performed by an FSO production system to process an FSO transaction. The sequence of tasks associated with an FSO transaction may be consistent with pre-defined business logic for the transaction. Selecting a task object from a plurality of task objects and transferring the task object to a process map display representing the process map business object may create the process workflow.

Abstract: A system, method and carrier medium for communicating between a Financial Service Organization (FSO) computer system and a computer system external to the FSO in a generic fashion. For each direction of a message (i.e., outbound from the FSO computer system or inbound to the FSO computer system), two templates are constructed and subsequently stored in a database. The first type of template is the message template; the second type of template is the message layout template. The outbound message template represents outbound messages; the inbound message template represents inbound messages. The outbound message layout template represents outbound message layouts; the inbound message layout template represents inbound message layouts. An outbound message represents a request for FSO data from an external computer system to be used in a FSO computer system for processing a FSO transaction between a FSO and a FSO customer.
