Abstract

Embodiments of the invention monitor node usage in a transaction processing system. Embodiments include accessing a dynamic mapping of transaction flow in the transaction processing system, the dynamic mapping including a plurality of transaction pathways interconnected by transaction nodes, wherein the transaction nodes represent an automated processing step or action taken by a manual station of the transaction processing system on transactions files that are received at the transaction nodes; wherein the transaction processing system processes a transaction file at a first node and stores information corresponding to the first node and the type of processing that occurred at the first node with the transaction file; determining that the transaction file was processed at the first node; accessing the transaction file to determine the type of processing that occurred at the first node; and performing an action related to the type of processing that occurred at the first node.
