And BZW was implementing TAURUS on VMS, and the IPE, LME, ICCH, Deutsche
BANK, Bankers Trust, Credit Agricole, . . . .

Oh, yeah, I very well remember my contract with BTCo...
6/97-4/98 Bankers Trust ................................ DEC VAX/VMS/C
Consultant: Enhanced BTCo's money transfer system, SPS, to provide
multicurrency capabilities, primarily for Swift MT102 "bulk file"
messages. SPS (Single Pay Stream) is a front end that accepts payment
instructions in many different formats, and then translates, validates,
and reroutes them to appropriate application(s). The MT102-component
of SPS converts an incoming MT102 to a sequence of outbound payment
MT100's and funding MT202's, along with reversals as necessary.
The multicurrency project required enhancements to the
debit/credit/beneficiary account information in these messages,
to their value dates, their routing, etc. New functionality
emitting outbound MT102's to multicurrency Partner Banks, and/or
files containing Commercial Check payment instructions, was also
required.
o Wrote application-level code (and accompanying RdB tables) to
calculate transaction fees, adjust value dates, etc., and to
build all required outbound messages and files.
o Modified code generating envelopes for messages submitted to
BTCo's inhouse communication facility, CNS, to implement
new routing requirements.
o Developed subsystem that automatically builds IFT parameter
files required to transmit outbound MT102's, and then submits
them to IFT. Modified SPS processing (and recovery procedures)
to checkpoint state information, to wait for ACK from
Partner Bank before funding payments, etc.
