JP Morgan – ACCESS Treasuries Platform

 

J.P. Morgan Chase has created the global cash management tool ACCESS that serves 25,000 of the most sophisticated global corporate and sovereign treasuries departments for the multi trillion dollar a day cash market. ACCESS consolidates critical information for management of cash balances, daily transactions and information, allowing Treasurers to perform all functions of financial transactions in a single location.

I was contracted to design the Service Requests module for transaction exception handling. Service Requests could be generated for any transaction such as Wires, ACH and FX, multiple transactions, reversals, authorizations and inquiries.
