Ascensus Joins the Symitar Vendor Integration Program (VIP) — Ascensus, LLC
VIP Will Enable Ascensus to Integrate with Episys to Help Clients Save Time and Reduce Risk
DRESHER, Pa. – Aug. 6, 2018 – PRLog — Ascensus (https://www.ascensus.com/)
After the integration with Episys via SymXchange™, IRAdirect express will give Ascensus’ clients the ability to enter IRA transactions to their core processing system and IRAdirect in one easy step. They can post to both systems in real time, making IRA transactions easier and more efficient while helping to avoid common input errors.
IRAdirect express integrates with Episys via SymXchange™, a services-based programming interface that enables third-party vendors and credit unions to access the platform’s core data and business rules. The integrity of data is maintained throughout any data exchange, because access to business rules and data is managed through a service layer which governs these interactions.
“Ascensus is excited to join the Symitar VIP, as integrating will allow users to experience increased IRA processing accuracy while reducing their risk of non-compliance,”
The service is expected to be available on August 13, 2018.
Symitar’s VIP takes the customer out of the middle, providing vendors with direct access to Symitar’s technical resources and test systems. VIP inclusion is not an endorsement of the vendor’s product.
