Composition of a Priority Control Configuration (PCC)
A priority control configuration is made up of an ordered set of administrator-defined rules or criteria. The Control Center provides pages to define and manage the priority control configurations. A priority control configuration for Exceptions List must remain active when operators use the exceptions list page.
Each criterion in a priority control configuration selects, orders, and sends available transactions to the Exceptions operators.
An Exceptions priority control configuration usually consists of the following criteria.
- One or more optional filtering criteria definition that allows selection criteria to be defined.
- A default criterion with no selection criteria defined. The default criterion is defined as the last criterion.
Filtering criterion phrases
The optional phrases that are available in the filtering criteria are shown in the following list.
- Selection phrase (first phrase)
- This phrase selects a set of transactions to key based on criteria such as current amount, currency, or unit of work priority.
- Ordering phrase (second phrase)
- This phrase establishes the order in which selected transactions are presented to users.
- Authorization phrase (third phrase)
- This phrase specifies who can key the selected transactions. Authorization is done by listing the user groups whose members are allowed to operate the transactions selected by the selection phrase.
