The bridge between Finacle and FCC your operations team has been waiting for
TradeSyncEngine is an enterprise-grade synchronisation platform purpose-built for banks running Infosys Finacle as their core banking system and Finastra FCC as their trade finance platform.
It eliminates the manual re-keying that occurs between the two systems every day — the spreadsheets, the emails, the missed entries, the failed audits — and replaces all of it with a fully automated, 5-minute sync cycle with intelligent retry, zero-code field mapping, and an immutable audit trail baked in from day one.
What it does
Fetches trade data from Finacle every 5 minutes via REST API
Transforms payloads using a zero-code field mapping engine per product and event type
Pushes to FCC via REST API or XML file drop — your environment, your choice
Retries failed syncs automatically with product-specific policies (up to 5× for LC)
Writes every action to an immutable audit log — who, what, when, outcome, IP address
Auto-emails a formatted PDF report to the operations team every morning at 08:00
ROI in days
The operational shift is immediate
How it works
The 6-step sync lifecycle
Every trade follows the same deterministic path — from Finacle fetch to FCC confirmation, with retry and audit handled automatically.
Fetch
Query Finacle by CIF, reference, product, date range
Queue
Maker selects trades + idempotency key generated
Transform
Field Mapping Engine applies product/event rules
Sync
REST API or XML file drop to FCC every 5 minutes
Retry
Intelligent retry: up to 5× for LC/EL, 3× others
Audit
Immutable log + auto-emailed PDF report at 08:00
Coverage
8 trade finance products
Out-of-the-box support for the full range of trade finance instruments. High-value LC products get extended retry policies — because they need it.

Queue Intelligence
Retry that actually thinks
Not all failures are equal. TradeSyncEngine classifies every error and responds accordingly — retrying what can recover, stopping what can't.
Queue status lifecycle
Error classification & retry policy
Always retry
Retry (may recover)
No retry — fix data
No retry — already sent
Additional controls
- Batch size: 100 items per 5-minute cycle
- Idempotency keys — duplicates impossible in FCC
- nextRetryTime scheduling — no constant polling overhead
- License quota gate checked before every cycle
- 365-day payload archive for all Finacle payloads
- Individual reprocess or process-all-now override
Field Mapping Engine
Zero custom code for new products
Every Finacle field that needs to land in FCC goes through the mapping engine. Rules are configured per product code and event type — LC INITIATION has entirely different rules from LC AMENDMENT, which has different rules from IC INITIATION.
Adding a new trade product or changing a field mapping takes minutes in the admin UI. No code deploy. No downtime. Effective on the next sync cycle.
- Per product + per event type rules (granular control)
- Mandatory field validation — bad data blocked before FCC
- Wildcard rules for cross-product defaults
- Duplicate mapping detection
- Priority ordering within a rule set
- Soft delete — history always preserved
Security & Compliance
5-tier RBAC + immutable audit
Maker-Checker isn't a workflow add-on. It's the system architecture. Every action is captured, attributed, and permanent.
Role hierarchy
Security & compliance features
JWT + BCrypt
Stateless JWT tokens, BCrypt hashing (strength 10), account locking on failed attempts
Immutable audit log
Every action recorded: who, what, when, IP address, outcome. No update or delete endpoints exist.
SSO — SAML 2.0 / OAuth 2.0 / OIDC
Federate with ADFS, Azure AD, Okta or any standard identity provider. Fallback to local login.
License-gated operations
RSA-signed license with quota tracking. Sync cycle blocked when quota or expiry is reached.
Integration Architecture
Two integration paths, one engine
Your network, your choice. Switch modes in the admin settings — no code change, no restart.
Mode 1
FCC REST API
Direct HTTP calls to FCC portal with Bearer token + API key authentication. Full response validation with FCC transaction ID tracking.
- Direct HTTP to FCC portal
- Bearer token + API key auth
- Response validation
- FCC transaction ID tracking
Best for: Direct FCC network access
Mode 2
XML File Drop
Transformed XML written to a shared folder path. FCC's standard file polling picks up automatically — no FCC API credentials required.
- Transformed XML to shared folder
- No FCC API credentials needed
- Works in air-gapped environments
- FCC polls at its own schedule
Best for: Air-gapped or restricted environments
Finacle integration
Finacle is queried via REST API + JSON payload using API Key authentication. A configurable base URL supports any Finacle deployment topology. Mock mode is available for testing and UAT environments with no external dependency required.
