Enhancements to Manage your profile
New features for administration of swift.com users
Published on 15 October 2008
On 14 October 2008, SWIFT introduced a number of changes to the
Manage your profile application on swift.com.
4-eyes principle when changing the user profile of a swift.com administrator
When a swift.com administrator changes its own profile, the application now sends a request to the other swift.com administrators of the institution for approval. This allows you to apply the 4-eyes principle for changes to the profile of a swift.com administrator.
Easier assignment of Alliance LSO/RSO role
Previously, Alliance Left Security Officers (LSO) and Alliance Right Security Officers (RSO) had to request their swift.com administrator by phone or e-mail to activate the Alliance LSO or RSO role in their swift.com user profile. This role is needed to view SWIFT software licence keys in the Secure Channel application. Now, Alliance Security Officers can use their swift.com profile to request this role, the request will however be sent to the swift.com administrator for approval.
New role for making configuration changes
As
announced on the ordering section of swift.com, orders are now classified as 'commercial orders' or 'configuration orders'. This classification allows you to assign specific staff to each order category. To do so, an additional role is now available in the swift.com user profile, called 'configuration changes'. Any user, who needs to submit configuration changes on swift.com, can now request this role in the swift.com user profile. To submit commercial orders, only the role 'ordering' is required.
By default, SWIFT has granted the 'configuration changes' access rights to all swift.com users that have the 'ordering' profile. You can keep this default role assignment, or you can request your swift.com administrator to change it.
Improved reporting for swift.com administrators
The swift.com administrators have access to a user reporting tool that allows them to better manage swift.com registration. One of the reports has been improved and now contains more detailed information allowing you to better identify what has been approved or rejected.
