DSU/Database Configuration

To use the Exceptions & Investigations (E&I) functions, you need to configure the database or update the DSU file YourCommonConfiguration.xlsx. Several tabs are related to this configuration:

  • Error Codes tabs (For example, Verification Error Codes, Operator Resolution Error Codes)
  • Error Categories tab
  • Exception Category tab
To define which error code maps to which work type (currently REPAIR, VERIFY, RESOLVE), you must assign each error category to a work type in the Exception Category tab. For example, if you have an error category named Verification and you want all error codes under this category to be assigned to the work type VERIFY, add a row similar to:
Table 1. Sample Exception Category Mapping
Category Work Type Priority Pres State
26 VERIFY 55 REMEDIATED

Columns

The following table describes each column used in the Exception Category configuration.

Table 2. Exception Category Columns
Column Name Description
Category The ID of the error category (For example, Verification).
Work Type The work type you want to assign to this category.
Priority Lower numbers indicate higher priority.
  • If a payment contains multiple error codes with different work types, the system loads the work type with the highest priority.
  • When an operator acts on an exception item, the system treats lower-priority items as repaired.
Pres State The desired state of the payment after it is fixed.
