In this paper, we document our configuration findings from an implementation scenario that we performed from the IBM® Redbooks® publication, A Guide to Using ACI Worldwides BASE24-es on z/OS, SG24-7268 . We based this Redpaper on a project that was undertaken by the Product and Solutions Support Center (PSSC) in IBM Montpellier, France.

One of the considerations is that, since the publication date of the Redbooks publication, the product name changed from BASE24-es to BASE24-eps (enterprise payments system).

The Smart Bank project, hosted in Montpellier, implemented BASE24-eps on z/OS® , and then integrated it with both simulated and real ATM devices. A simulated VISA network authorized the payments against an independent host-core system from another independent software vendor (ISV). As a result of this work, we covered some new ground in configuring BASE24-eps on z/OS, which is what we cover in this Redpaper.
