INFORMATION SYSTEM IN PNB

History Of information system at PNB:-

In March 2000, the penetration and use of IT was not very high at PNB. The bank used seven

different software, which ran on 13 different flavors of Unix, on standalone PCs. The 500-odd

branches were not networked and only 35 percent of the bank's business was computerized. The

overall expertise in IT among users was low.

The Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) issued a directive to the bank to computerize at least

70 percent of its business by December 2000. This prompted the bank to work out a strategy to

tackle the daunting task in the short period of time. Different Unix OS flavors in different branches.

Different standalone financial applications on PCs at different branches.

Lack of interoperability due to disparity in systems.

Limited expertise on the software packages currently deployed. This increased dependence

on vendors.


Branches (4267)

Systems audits were pending.

Most branches did not have a proper LAN in place.

There was almost no WAN connectivity.

Information system in company:-

Punjab National Bank (PNB) today is the second largest public sector bank in the country (after

State Bank of India), with a business of Rs 1,00,000 crore. The bank has an extensive employee

base of 56,000 people in 4,267 branches across the country, and has a customer base of 30

million. PNBs net profit, for the half-year ending in September 2002, stands at Rs 411 crore,

which further showcases its strength in the banking segment.

Besides making a mark in terms of revenues, the bank among the few technology-savvy PSUs

is now setting examples for other banks, especially PSUs. Recognizing this effort, the Institute

for Development and Research in Banking Technology (IDRBT), a division of the Reserve Bankof India (RBI), presented PNB with the award for excellence in banking technology. This is quite

an achievement considering that the technology transformation started only two-and-a-half years

back at PNB. In March 2000, the bank had only 36 percent of its businesses covered on

computers, as against 84 percent today.

There are four reasons why PNB opted for IT as its business tool. Firstly, technology has the

capacity to reduce the transaction cost to a great extent, plus it saves time. Secondly, it limits data

entry time as replication, report generation etc, can be done automatically. Thirdly, it offers

immense scope for improvement on the customer relationship front, as computers help deliver

quick and enhanced value-added services to customers like smart cards, ATMs, Internet banking,etc. And lastly it also helps keep track of the business.

Banking applications

The first and the foremost requirement for this technology transformation was a centralized core

banking system. PNB tied up with Infosys in the first phase. Once it had acquired the software

package, PNBs 150 strong in-house team customized it, as per the banks requirements. In April

this year, PNB implemented this centralized core banking solution at its eight branchessix in

New Delhi and two in Mumbai. Today, the number of locations has increased to 12. As far as the

centralized core banking system is concerned, PNB has a data centre at the corporate office and

all these 12 centers have an extension to that data. This system enables an individual having an

account in any of our branches to conduct transactions/operate the account from any of these 12

branches.

By next year, PNB aims to connect 200 branches in 40-50 cities across the country and aims to

increase this number to 1,500 in three years. This system will also enable us to have a

centralized database to implement CRM and data warehousing solutions in future, he adds.

10/17

Once this system is in place, the banking major will be able to introduce a number of value-

added services like ATMs, tele-banking, SMS banking, mobile banking and Internet banking,

remote access facility through its website, etc. (PNB already has a license from RBI to launch

Internet banking.)

The system will also enable customers to avail of the Straight to Processing (STP) facility. Thebiggest advantage of STP is that if a person with an account in Delhi deposits a cheque in

Chennai, his account in Delhi gets updated the same day. PNBs team has also customized this

package to suit the typical requirements of a public sector bank. As PNB handles huge number

of government accountspublic provident fund, deposit of income tax, deposit of different

duties and treasury payments, PNB had to customize it and also built a module for government

businesses into this package. The 107-year-old bank, with around 7,000 locker holders, has also

built a locker module in this package to benefit customers.

The bank also has a depository set-up (to store dematerialized share certificates) at its corporate

office in New Delhi and another in Mumbai. Customers owning shares and bonds can depositthem at these depositories after which the hard copies are destroyed. The bank, on the other hand,

keeps a digital copy of all these documents. Thus, one does not have to bother about the loss of

paper, or a signature that does not match and so on. Customers can now instruct the bank at any

point of time to transfer these securities.

Another very interesting development with PNB is its contract with Indian Railways. It is putting

up an ATM machine at the New Delhi stations reservation office, which is going to be a

interface between the Railways server and the banks server. Once this is functional, customers

can collect their tickets from the ATM machine and the payment can be made using credit or

debit cards (PNB will launch Mastercard International debit cards next January), or by a papercard (which the bank is launching shortly). Once this is successful and the interface is done, the

bank plans to enable all their ATMs across the country on this platform.

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is another technology initiative that the bank has taken up

recently. It has entered into an agreement with the Customs department wherein the Customs

server is connected with the banks corporate office server, which is further connected to several

branches of PNB and also to importers. Thus, whatever duties are required to be deposited with

the Customs department can be debited from the importers (read customers) account

automatically. The pilot project for this has already been carried out and the bank plans to

introduce this service soon.

The PSU has also introduced bilingual software known as Bank-mate. With the help of this

software one can generate reports in Hindi and also can get his/her passbook in Hindi. This is

already in operation at around 25 branches and PNB is also getting orders for this package from

other banks.

As any other financial institution PNB also has a number of applications running on its network.

The bank has plans to standardize all its platforms on UNIX operating system and RDBMS on

Oracle. As far as the hardware platform is concerned, PNB has Sun Microsystems Web servers

at the data centre. For the Base 24 switch, they have gone in for Compaq Servers. Apart from

this, they are also using RISC Servers, IBM and Xeon servers. PNB has around 500 servers

across the country and around 13,000-15,000 PCs placed in different offices across the country.

At some locations, the bank is still using DOS machines to run some of their ATMs.

Transaction Processing System:

A Transaction Processing System or Transaction Processing Monitor is a set of information

which processes the data transaction in database system that monitors transaction programs (a

special kind of program). The essence of a transaction program is that it manages data that must

be left in a consistent state. E.g. if an electronic payment is made, the amount must be either both

withdrawn from one account and added to the other, or none at all. In case of a failure preventing

transaction completion, the partially executed transaction must be 'rolled back' by the TPS. While

this type of integrity must be provided also forbatch transaction processing, it is particularly

important for online processing: if e.g. an airline seat reservation system is accessed by multiple

operators, after an empty seat inquiry, the seat reservation data must be locked until the

reservation is made, otherwise another user may get the impression a seat is still free while it is

actually being booked at the time

In PNB Sun SPARC enterprise M series and energy efficient Chip Multi-Threading (CMT)systems running the Solaris Operating System delivered higher performance and scalability,

enabling PNBs architecture to scale seamlessly from catering to 500 branches to more than 4600

branches across the nation. Periodic consolidation of servers and storage by Sun Professional

Services also delivered important benefits optimizing compute and storage utilization, reducing

power, cooling and space costs significantly over a period of time.

Payroll TPS

Payroll TPS, which is a typical accounting transaction processing system found in PNB. A

payroll system keeps track of the money paid to employees. The master file is composed ofdiscrete pieces of information (such as a name, address, or employee number) called data

elements. Data are keyed into the system, updating the data elements. The elements on the

master file are combined in different ways to create reports of interest to management and

government agencies and to send paychecks to employees. These TPS can generate other report

combinations of existing data elements.PNB send it to payroll TPS from where it links that

information with the previous record and prepare a report which is forwarded to management.

Management takes notice the record of the employees efficiency to work and may declare added

bonus or other incentive. This report is checked and approved by the branch manager after which

check is issued to the employee.

Real time Banking:

The Real-time Core Banking Platform is a cost-effective alternative to proprietary, legacy batch-

processing technology. It enables the banking institutions to realize a 10-fold increase in

performance and cost savings, while eliminating the need for batch-processing. It packages Red

Hat Enterprise Linux, updates via Red Hat Network, FIS Profile, and dedicated customersupport and services specifically tailored to the mission-critical needs of a banking environment

all on a single server running four of Intels new Quad-Core Xeon series 7300 processors.

Online Assistance:-

PNB provides its customers online assistance by providing i-banking, online complaints,

providing then information about various products and services. These complaints and assistance

are processed by customer care services.

Account Opening

IN account opening the MIS is used, the every information about the customer is recorded like

their name, address, account, type of account, account information, their sample signature, these

helps in Identification of customer instantly and creating a database at faster rate.

ATM Card

PNB feels that ATMs offer many advantages over conventional branch-based banking like low

cost per transaction and customer convenience. To encourage this, the bank has installed various

ATMs, networked. A Base24 switch controls the ATMs. The ATMs are connected essentially

through VSAT links from Comsat Max. VSAT links were chosen over leased lines because the

bank felt that leased lines did not provide 100 percent uptime, and VSATs were closer to that

mark. "If a customer uses an ATM and the line is not up, he/she will not be able to complete the

transaction. The bank can't take a chance with connectivity," said Bajwa. Comsat Max has signed

an SLA of maximum guaranteed uptime and dedicated bandwidth, to be increased whenever

required. PNB has formed a consortium of seven banks and has principally agreed to share the

ATM facilities amongst themselves. It will be available for public use soon.

MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM

Relationship of MIS with TPS:

The various types of systems in the organization exchange data with one another. TPS are a

major source of data for other systems, especially MIS. TPS are operational-level systems that

collect transaction data. Examples of these are payroll or order processing that track the flow of

the daily routine transactions that are necessary to conduct business. TPS provide data that are

required by office systems, although these systems may also use other data. Office systems not



15/17

only use data from TPS but also from MIS., office systems, MIS rely heavily on data from TPS

but also use data and office systems.

MIS reports and summarizes the organizations basic operations and these reports come from the

basic transition processing systems. In case of our organization the TPSs of ATM Cards, Payroll

and Customer identification etc. provide the basic information about the organizations activities.

These activities are then summarized in the form of reports for the manager so that they can

check whether the firm is working properly or not. If there are some flaws then they take control

measures to fix those flaws.

MIS & TPS

CONCLUSION

A management information system is a system or process that provides the information

necessary to manage an organization effectively. MIS and the information it generates are

generally considered essential components of prudent and reasonable business decisions. This

report starts with the Punjab National Bank with overview of PNB followed by history of

information system and the steps taken by PNB to be effective in banking industry by using

informations technology.

One of the biggest benefits that the bank has derived out of IT has been the tremendous saving

on recruitment frontthe bank has not recruited more staff even while the business and work

pressures have gone up five times. Consequently, PNBs profitability has also increased. To train

users the bank has set up 14 computer training labs across the country.

It explains all the TPS how the transactions are made by the bank, using of these TPS from the
