Manage flex controls
Flex controls (flexible transaction controls) are rules that restrict your customers' financial operations, such as a daily withdrawal amount limit. For detailed information about flex controls and how to use them, refer to the Flexible transaction controls guide.
Add a flex control
Flex control example
In Control Center, you can set up flex controls only at the program level. This means that a control affects all accounts in the program to which you apply it. For information about applying flex controls at the account or customer level, refer to Create flex control.
For an example of how to create a flex control that sets a nightly transaction limit, refer to Create a flex control on Pix transactions.
You can add a flex control as active (immediately in force) or as inactive (saved but not yet activate). Once a flex control is activated, the platform evaluates it whenever there are events generated for customer accounts that match its defined transaction types.
To add a flex control:
-
On the main menu, choose Setup > Flex controls.
-
On the Flex controls screen, click Create flex control.
- On the Select a control type screen, select the type of control (Restriction control or Cumulative control).
- Click Next.
- On the Select processing codes screen, click Add for each processing code to be included in this flex control.
- Click Next.
For more information about processing codes, refer to Processing codes and transaction types.
