Two – Level Authentication Schema Example

Under “User Management”, Users are recorded with the following assigned roles:

 

• The Master User does not have the right to execute monetary transactions
• Niki S can only “make” transactions (Maker).
• Magda P and Grigoris S can ”make” and also authorize transactions (Maker & Authorizer).
• Nikos Pap and Marinos X can only authorize transactions (Authorizer).

The Commercial User has adopted the two – level authorization schema, for which the following scenarios are applied:

 

In order for a transaction to be authorized, one of the following 4 scenarios must be valid:

• Authorization from a User with signature type A and from a User with signature type B, regardless of the signature order (A+B or B+A)
• Authorization from two Users with signature type A (A+A)
• Authorization from a User with signature type A and from a User with signature type I (A+I)
• Authorization from a User with signature type B and from a User with signature type I (B+I)
• Authorization from a User with singature type I 

 E.g. for a Bill payment the following authorization schema is formulated:

• The transaction (of any amount) can be recorded by Niki S, Magda P, and Grigoris S
• A Bill payment up to 1.000€ can be authorized with a single signature by Magda P or Nikos Pap Or Marinos X.
• A Bill payment up to 20.000€ can be authorized with a single signature by Nikos Pap or Marinos X.
• A Bill payment from 20.001up to 50.000€ can be authorized by Magda P ( signature type A) and Nikos Pap (Signature type B) or by Magda P (signature type A) and Marinos X (signature type I) or by only Marinos X (signature type I)
• A bill payment from 50.000€ can be authorized by Nikos Pap (signature type B) and Marinos X (signature type I) or solely by Marinos X (signature type I).

In the case where some of the authorizers have the same signature rights but you don’t want them to be able to authorize monetary transactions simultaneously, you can exclude this potential via Mutually Excluded Authorizers transaction (which is located under “Self Management” menu).

By Drag ‘n’ Drop, you can move from the left to the right column the authorizers you wish to be mutually excluded.

The authorizers that will be moved to the right column will not be able to simulteanously authorize a monetary transaction. If one authorizes the transaction, then no one else from the same group, though being able to view the transaction, will be able to authorize it.

By pressing Submit, you will be directed to the Verification Screen.

As shown below, you will create a group with the name you inserted and the authorizers you added in the right column of the table as in the screen above. In that specific example, the group’s name will be ‘Group A’ and the mutually excluded authorizers will be testuser@7 and testuser@9.

By selecting Confirm, you will be directed to the screen below which contains the relevant message that the transaction has been completed.

When you ‘ve already created a group, you can modify , whenever you want, its elements (group name) or the authorizers it consists of (add or removal of authorizers) by selecting the pen symbol which is located on the right of the group record.

You will be directed to the screen below:
