Information System in Allied Bank Limited

Allied Bank Limited is using information system since 2005-2006. Previously they was using core banking solution UNION BANKING SYSTEM (UNI), and almost about one year ago bank starts another banking solution named TEMENOS (T24). Old Management Information System in Allied Bank Previously management information system which allied bank used was UNI BANKING SYSTEM. Language of that information system was UNIX, and in banking terminology this language was called COBAL. This information system was MS DOS biased. With the help of this information technology allied bank record the daily transactions that was of only one branch. It was decentralized database. Decentralized means all transactions and processes are record in one place. All daily transactions were recorded and saved into one server; every branch of allied bank had its own server which was not linked to any other branch of allied bank. This information system was only being operated on LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM. Benefits of UNI Banking System: Easy to use: It was easy to use because people are expert they were using this operating system from many years. It was most familiar to operators because it was user friendly and also not complicated. Safety: This operating system was safe because its programming (coding) was very difficult, thats why hackers cant hack information from this operating system. This information system was can only used on LINUX operating system for that it was free of virus, so data was very safe. Low cost: This system was low cost, because LINUX operating system was almost free of cost and easily available.

Draw backs of UNI Banking System: Problem in system: It was logical error, means missing numeric values; this operating system was full of problem in online system. Sometimes during online working it was missing transactions and banker had no knowledge of that missing transaction. Decentralized: It was decentralized database system not centralized; mean had not relation with other branches. Difficult installation: This information system was difficult to install, because it can only operated on LINUX. Difficult in troubleshoot: When ever there was a problem in line code, then it cannot be resolved by any one. For solution of that problem, bank always called to special application developer from head office. DOS biased: DOS is only biased on commands, and this operating system was DOS biased. So it was difficult to operate.

Present Information System in Allied bank:

Almost one year ago Allied Bank replaces UNI BANKING to TEMENOSE (T24). T24 is the latest information system which is now a day mandatory from State Bank of Pakistan for every new bank. With the help of new information technology Allied Bank Limited records the daily transactions, and that took place from all over the Pakistan into a centralized database in real time and now there is no batch processing is taking place in Allied Bank all over the Pakistan. Every bank branch is an online branch and is directly connected to the centralized server to keep the data up to date to avoid any problems.

Organizational transaction processing system in T24:

TPS is a type of information system. It collects, store, modify, and save the transactions of organization. One transaction is an event that generates and modifies data that is eventually stored in information system. TPS monitors transaction programs. Basic purpose of TPS program is that must be left in a consistent state. TPS that Allied Bank is using is effective, that systems process is fast and rapidly, to ensure the smooth flow of data and the progression of processes. Payroll Transaction Process System: TPS in Allied Bank is for to get information and record of the employee payroll and calculate his/her annual earning. It get information about the employee from the employees department and also from general ledger and send it to payroll TPS. From where it links that information with the previous record and prepare a report which is forwarded to management. Management takes notice of the record of the employees efficiency to work and may declare bonus or incentive or demote him/her. This report is checked and approved by the branch manager after which check is issued to the employee. And at the time of salary or any incentive or benefits, when that check is cashed, the record is update in the general ledger as well as the master payroll (HUB).

Real time Banking: When a customer withdraws a sum of money from his or her account the transactions are processed and the account balance updated as soon as possible, allowing both the bank and customer to keep track of funds. When a customer goes to bank for withdraw or deposit the cash through cheque or cash then there are certain steps. We will just describe withdraw transaction. First step on the time of withdraw through cheque is, first cashier made entry of that cheque into information system (put cheque number, name of a/c holder) and then cheque is scanned into FLATBED PRINTER. And after that information system configure instrument number, amount in words & digits, and signature etc. If entered and scanned information will be same then system will proceed to next step. If transaction is of less than Rs.25, 000 then it needs the verification of just one person. And if cheque is of more than Rs.25, 000 then it needs the supervision of two supervisors. In case of more than twenty five thousand rupees transaction, system of Allied Bank generates one supervision code. One person made transaction and second supervises. And after configuration transaction is done. TEMENOS system of Allied Bank shows option of debit and credit at the time of transaction. And when transaction is made then the new transaction is send to Lane. Date and time of transaction automatically entered when ever transaction made. The Lane enters the HUB where the specified file is accessed. The updates are made entered there and finally the adjustment is done.
