ASx Management Information

Management information is provided by ASx to report upon the availability of the complete installation and to analyze the transaction processing from a business perspective.

ASx is supplied with a standard set of reports that are formatted from data extracted from the ASx database using ASx's standard data extraction utilities. Consequently, the standard reports can be modified to suit individual customer requirement very simply. Therefore, additional information can be made available when, for example, managers wish to review the success of a marketing campaign.

The standard reports include transaction statistics broken down by issuer, network, interchange, merchant, bin range and device. The statistics can show transactions authorized, declined and rerouted.

Service availability reports show the number of hours that connected networks and devices have been available for use. This is particularly useful to analyze potential lost business due to failure in accessing a network over which transactions should be routed or to establish how effectively your connected devices are being managed.

Alerts

ASx can raise alerts when system abnormalities or security conditions are detected and when business conditions or events are identified, for example, when a potential fraud is detected.

These alerts can be passed to other industry-standard third-party alert management solutions, for example, HP OpenView or IBM Tivoli. Alternatively, ASx can send email and SMS text alerts to a predefined number of recipients.

All alerts are logged to the ASx database at the time they are raised and can be reported upon if required.
