The PTM documentary record (dossier) serves as a buffer between various in-house documents (such as orders, for example) and communication messages that are broadcast or received in the system.
This role of the dossier is essential in the automation of business processes as the reasons for changing the dossier are mainly due to internal documents or automatically when receiving a certain MT message. The dossier contains the latest verified information as a result of the business processes.
On the other hand, when generating MT messages, the documentary record has the role of a template from which the necessary fields are copied and valid SWIFT messages are generated according to the MT 2017 standard. These messages can be copied and edited multiple times. There are a number of situations where it is necessary to keep previous versions for reference or old messages to be used as templates for generating new messages.
Because of the applied application needs and exceptions, PTM does not restrict users in generating SWIFT messages by number or type. It is the responsibility of the user to determine whether or not he wants to generate a message, but the system does not restrict him from repeating this request many times.
