Solution Overview

Problem

International financial transactions often fail due to incomplete information, leading to repeated submissions and additional costs, as originators may not be aware of the required information for transactions across different countries with varying regulations.

Innovation Solution

A global transaction processing system that dynamically generates a transaction information request form based on transaction parameters, validates the data, and automatically corrects errors by accessing the originator's profile to ensure all necessary information is provided, thereby facilitating successful transactions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If a standardized transaction processing system is used, then processing speed is improved, but transaction failure rate increases due to varying country-specific information requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransaction processing speedVSAvoidtransaction success rate
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The transaction processing system dynamically adapts its information requirements based on the specific transaction parameters (originator country, recipient country, transaction type). The system generates customized transaction information request forms rather than using a static standardized form, allowing it to adjust to varying country-specific regulatory requirements while maintaining efficient processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Reliability

If comprehensive validation is performed to ensure complete information, then transaction reliability is improved, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransaction completenessVSAvoidtransaction processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary validation by analyzing transaction parameters and pre-determining the specific information requirements for the originator and recipient countries before the actual transaction processing begins. This allows comprehensive validation to be conducted efficiently without adding significant time to the core transaction processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where the transaction processing system communicates missing information requirements back to the originator through customized request forms. This allows for targeted collection of only the specific information needed, rather than requiring comprehensive validation of all possible data elements, thus reducing processing time while ensuring completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Manufacturing precision

If country-specific information requirements are enforced, then transaction accuracy is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransaction data accuracyVSAvoidprocessing system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The transaction processing system serves multiple functions: it processes standard transaction data, determines country-specific information requirements, generates customized request forms, and validates complete information. By consolidating these diverse functions into a single multi-functional system, the complexity is managed centrally rather than requiring separate systems for each function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary component that acts as a bridge between the standardized processing framework and country-specific requirements. This intermediary analyzes transaction parameters, determines applicable regulatory requirements, and translates them into specific information requests, thereby managing complexity while ensuring accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

4Measurement precision

If manual review of transaction information is performed, then error detection is improved, but productivity decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveerror detection capabilityVSAvoidtransaction throughput
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The transaction processing system performs automated validation and error detection by analyzing transaction parameters and comparing them against country-specific requirements. The system generates customized request forms that clearly indicate missing information, enabling self-correction without manual review, thus maintaining high error detection capability while preserving productivity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

A computer implemented method performed by a global transaction processing system includes receiving a transaction request from an originator, the transaction request includes transactional data. The method includes validating the transactional data to determine one or more parameters associated with the requested transaction. The method includes dynamically generating a transaction information request form, the transaction request form including one or more requests for specific transactional data from the originator based on the one or more parameters associated with the requested transaction. The method includes transmitting the transaction information form to the originator and receiving the requested specific transactional data from the originator. The method also includes validating the transaction request based on the received transaction request and the received specific transactional data to determine if the transaction request is valid, as well as processing the transactional request based on the transaction request being determined to be a valid transaction request.
