Abstract

A system, method and carrier medium for locating processing parameter values in a Financial Service Organization (FSO) computer system using pre-configured key definitions, key values, and key value search masks. The key definitions, key values, processing parameter values and key value search masks may be identified by a user during a configuration of the FSO computer system. The FSO computer system may include one or more processing parameters. Each processing parameter may have one key definition, one or more key values with one processing parameter value assigned to each key value, and one or more key value search masks. The FSO computer system may include a database for storing the key definitions, key values and their associated processing parameter values, and key value search masks. The key definitions, key values and their associated parameter values, and key value search masks may be stored in tables in the database. The FSO computer system may be configured to construct processing key values from one or more data element values in the FSO computer system. A key definition may include one or more key elements. A key element may be used to locate a data element value in th…
