ACCORD^® SmartFile Transfer

The ACCORD^® SmartFile Transfer distribution channel is designed to operate in a very automated manner from the Bank’s Perspective. Files targeted to be delivered to the Commercial Customer can be copied to the Solution’s landing zone as soon as the files becomes available. This will alert the Customer that a file is available from the Bank (through a File Availability Email generated by the Solution and sent to the Customer). The Customer will sign on and download the file for further handling.

For Files to be sent to the Bank from the Customer, the Customer will sign on and upload the file to the Bank as soon as it is ready to be sent. Based on the employed File Naming Conventions for different types of uploads from the Customer, the SmartFile Transfer Solution will receive the file and send it to the targeted Bank Treasury Service Operation landing zone for processing.

Optionally, SmartFile Transfer can be deployed with ACCORD OneView Encryption which will encrypt the files targeted to be sent by the Bank to the Customer at a file-level using an AES 256-bit encryption algorithm.  The encrypted file would be packaged with the Ad-Hoc Decryptor Application through which the Customer will enter the Encryption Key provided by the Bank to decrypt the content.

The SmartFile Transfer distribution channel option utilizes a modular and scalable platform using industry standard components to create a robust content delivery infrastructure.
