Once data is ingested into the transaction history by the TMS API, the Channel Router and Setup Processor (CRSP) performs an initial “triage” step to determine if the transaction should be inspected by the platform, and in what way. At the moment this is a very simple decision based on the transaction type only (i.e. pain.001, pain.013, pacs.008 and pacs.002), though we envisage that the decision-making here can be more complex in the future by inspecting attributes contained in the message. For now, the CRSP uses the transaction type¹ to select the typologies that are to be evaluated and triggers the rules required by the typologies. The CRSP routing is configured via a network map that defines the hierarchy of typologies and rules. While not directly influenced by a calibration process at present, the behavior of existing rules and typologies may result in changes to the scope of the evaluation defined in the network map. Some rules or typologies may be deemed to be ineffective in the current configuration and removed or recomposed, and new rules or typologies may be added as new behaviors emerge.

The typology processor assigns a weighting to each rule outcome as it is received based on the rule’s parent typologies’ configurations. Once all the rule results for a specific typology has been received, the typology adds all the weighted scores together into the typology score. The typology score can be evaluated against an “interdiction” threshold to determine if the client system should be instructed to block a transaction “in flight” and also an investigation threshold to trigger a review process at the end of the transaction evaluation.²

1. In its current configuration, the platform only evaluates the pacs.002 as the trigger payload for the rule processors and typologies have only been defined with the final status of a payment transaction in mind.

2. The typology processor is not currently configured to interdict the transaction when the threshold is breached; only investigations are commissioned once the evaluation of all the typologies are complete.
