Hi! Hello! Welcome!
Namashkar! Aadab! Main Amitabh Bachchan aapka Swagath Kartha Hoon "Kaun
Banega Finacle Expert" may. LOL
Do you wan't Amitabh ji
to teach you Finacle lessons? It would have been very very interesting if
Amitabh Ji taught us about Finacle. Infact Sunny Leone would have been a better
option, Isn't it? Ahem ! Ahem! But sorry you have to compromise with Satya and
Simha for this training.
Booooo! Non sense! Stop
it ! we don't want this training from you guys! We want SUNNY! We Want Sunny!
Hello bhai saab aur
bhabhi ji! We can teach you better than Sunny ji! Just spend 5 minutes daily
for the coming one month and then you will know we are better than Sunny ji :-P
So shall we start our
training? Wait! We actually wanted to make video tutorials for this training.
But unfortunately Christopher Nolan didn’t had dates to direct our videos and
Rahman was too busy and was not giving proper background music. And graphics,
makeup man, stunt masters, heroines ufffff… It is so difficult to make a video.
So we decided to drop off from that idea. Instead we are writing these lessons
so that you can easily understand them. Just read these lessons as a story
book. We tried our level best to make these lessons very very easy.
If you still don’t
understand, please try more to understand.
Too much non sense. Start
the lesson now. OK OK. Ready...Start Camera...Lights on...Music...Action!
In this lesson we will
learn the most basic concepts about finacle. Finacle is very easy. Yes it is
very easy. Many people who come for training at my WTC say that they will take
voluntary retirement because of the fear of finacle. No sir, if you know the
full power of finacle you will want to work a few more years after your
retirement. Yes, you will
want to work more because finacle handles the major burden for you. You will
feel more relaxed and enjoying that you will not want to leave the work. All
this is possible when you know everything about Finacle.
Not only finacle even in
our real life this rule applies. You will be afraid of driving a car in the
beginning. You will be afraid of making an accident. At the beginning, we are
not really perfect. But once we know perfectly we will drive the car as easily
as drinking water. Same is the case with Finacle. Once you know everything
about finacle you will do transactions so fast that you yourself will be amused
with your speed.
So just concentrate on
what I am teaching, practice the tips which I give you and you will become
finacle master in no time.
Sanchay Post is very easy. Is Finacle easy?
Of course Finacle is
easy. But Sanchay post is very very easy. Yes I agree with you on this point.
But Finacle is highly secured. It can handle millions of transactions with ease
(Daily almost 30 lakh transactions are taking place all over India in finacle
offices). No chance of frauds. Can we say these things about Sanchay post? No.
Sanchay post is not secured. Anyone can easily do frauds in Sanchay post. And it
cannot handle large number of transactions.
Finacle has many
advantages too. It gives customers various other channels of making
transactions. They need not come to post offices to complete their
transactions. They can do transactions by themselves. They can use ATMs to
withdraw money. There are cash deposit machines to deposit money. They can use
internet banking facilities to check balances, print account statement,
transfer amount to different accounts all by themselves.
So in an year or
two we will observe a huge decrease of people coming to counters to do
transactions. That means fewer transactions at counter. Isn’t it great?
Since less people come to
counter it gives us opportunity to start new business ventures. We can sell
mutual funds, stocks and life insurances. We can handle forex (foreign
exchange) services. The possibilities are unlimited. We can become a major
contributor of income to GDP of our country. We can be proud of what we are
doing. People will once again start respecting us.
I think many of you have
faced this question.
“Oh you work in
Post office? That’s great! No work at post offices is it! You might be enjoying
a lot because nobody is using letters now a day’s”
I feel like hitting hard
in their face to whoever says this to me. But we can’t do that. Can we? We have
to give a tight slap to them by our work. We will work hard and prove to our
country what we are capable of.
Finacle will give us this
strength. It will give the wings to fly high. Let’s learn Finacle with lots of
love towards it. Yes many officials are suffering due to this CBS. But all
those technical problems our administration will soon overcome. By that time we
should become Finacle experts.
Let’s get into the lesson
now. Auditors (SBCO staff) can also follow this training. Because to understand
what auditors should do, it is essential that auditors should know what counter
staff are doing. Even though we don’t know completely how auditors should work
in finacle, we know the basics of what auditors should do. We will start a
separate training for auditors after completion of counter staff training. But
it is essential that auditors should know all this. So we advise auditors staff
also to follow this training closely.
Differences between Sanchay Post and Finacle.
Because we already know
how to work with Sanchay Post, Let’s learn Finacle from Sanchay post itself. In
Sanchay Post everything was readily available on screen. For any transaction we
just click on the item which we want and a new screen opens with required form.
Then we enter the fields in the form and click on SEND button. And the
transaction is done.
But Finacle is different.
Nothing is visible on the screen. See the image below. After you login into
finacle the screen will appear as below.
See, there is nothing on
the screen. Then, what should we do to deposit amount in to an SB account? How
should I close an SCSS account? How can we do transactions when nothing is
visible on the screen? See the picture below now.
If you look on the top most
right side of the screen, you will notice a field named as “Menu Shortcut:”
Beside menu shortcut there is an empty box. This empty box is used to do all
transactions in finacle. Through this box we can talk with Finacle. Yes! we can
talk with Finacle.
Since Finacle is computer
software it will not understand our languages. If we say “Finacle babu jara SB
depojit ka screen open karo”, it won’t understand anything. It’s simple isn’t
it? We cannot talk in Hindi with a Chinese person. That Chinese person will
only understand Chinese Language.
Similarly Finacle will
only understand its own language.
Finacle can only
understand a language of codes. If you want to talk with Finacle we should know
the codes that it understands. If you want to open an SB account, then enter
CASBAO code in the menu shortcut field and click on GO. See the image below and
you will understand.
Finacle
only understands these codes. After clicking on go it will open a new screen
where you will enter some more information and open the account.
These codes which Finacle understands are called as MENUS
To do any transaction in
Finacle you have to enter a menu in the Menu Shortcut field. Finacle will read
this menu and it will open a new screen where you can complete the
transactions.
Let us imagine that
Finacle is a ROBOT. Robots are designed to do predefined works. You give
commands to robots and they will complete the work. Similarly we have to give
commands (MENUS) to make it work for you.
To do any transaction, we
have to enter a menu in the menu shortcut field. For every transaction there
will be a menu. There are almost 200 menus in finacle which are available for
counter staff. There will be so many other menus which are available for users
with higher roles. I’ll give you some examples.
1. Menu for SB Deposit is
CTM.
2. Menu for SB Account opening is CASBAO.
3. Menu for SB to RD
standing instruction is HSSIM.
4. Menu to initiate Day
end is HISCOD and so on.
You need not remember all
these menus immediately. As the time goes you will remember all menus by heart.
For beginners, I’ll give you a list of most commonly used menus in the counter
at the end of this lesson. You can download it and use it in the counter.
Because we are using
menus to do transactions in Finacle, Finacle is called as a menu driven web
interface.
So,that’s it for today’s
lesson. In the next lesson we will learn how to login into finacle. I will
explain in detail about everything which you see on the screen in the next
lesson.
Points to Remember:
1. Finacle can only understand the language of codes.
2.These codes are called as MENUS
3. For every transaction in Finacle there is menu.
4.To do any transaction in Finacle you have to enter the
corresponding menu in the menu shortcut field.
