Using the Banque de France Custom-Functions

Overview

Axway Financial Exchange provides two add-on Custom-Functions that you use in Integrator to generate the BIC from the Banque de France repository rather than the SWIFT repository. This is useful for mapping CFONB messages to SEPA messages.

Integrating the Custom-Functions

General procedure

To make use of the Banque de France Custom-Functions inside your mappings, you need to:

  1. Create the Banque de France database.
  2. Import the Custom-Functions definition into Composer.
  3. Using the Banque de France Custom-Functions.
  4. Link the Integration-Task to a Channel referring to the Banque de France database.
  5. Implement the Custom-Function in Integrator.
  6. Check and send the Integration-Task to Integrator. The Integration-Task is then ready for use.

Creating the Banque de France database

Refer to Creating Banque de France database objects

Importing the Custom-Functions definition into Composer

This step defines the Custom-Function parameters (input and output).

  1. Start Axway Composer.

You can now use the Custom-Function in any DML part of an Integration-Process, for example:

Linking the Integration-Task to a Channel referring to the Banque de France database
