Technical Information Regarding The Safe®

We are glad you are here!

The Safe® was designed to put the SYSTEM OWNER, not the SYSTEM, in control of the environment !!

The Safe® is written in COBOL II and is designed to run in an IBM mainframe environment using CICS.

The Safe® uses both on-line and off- line functions.

System maintenance and daily box maintenance are performed on-line ; update of financial information is perform in the off-line cycle.
Information on the Customer and Box files will be updated through online entry (maintenance, renting boxes, etc.) during normal system operation. Data may also be updated through programmatic functions (application of Control File parameters, calculation of days past due, etc.) during the daily batch cycle.

The Control file contains user-defined codes and operating parameters. This file eliminates the need for hard coded parameters in programs.

The Safe® takes advantage of universal function key definitions in compliance with IBM's SAA, or Systems Application Architecture standard.

The Safe's ® data is carried in VSAM files.

The Control File holds all of the procedural definitions. This minimizes the need for programming changes when policy, regulations or procedures change as frequently occur with acquisitions and mergers.
The Control File may be updated through online entry and maintenance of the parameters. This is, of course, a highly secure function. The only programmatic update of the Control File is maintenance of the application date.

The Customer file carries all of the demographic information, discount product information, mailing address, etc. for the box holders.

The Box file carries the inventory of safe deposit boxes and rental records identifying the rented and unrented boxes, billing type, etc. for each box.

The Transaction file records all of the financial activity associated with each rental.

The Safe® is designed with a multi-level hierarchical structure. This design allows management to assign prices, discounts, fees, etc. at any hierarchical level. This capability makes it possible to define the way individual branches within a bank or, banks within a corporation, do business.
