Use case 4b - Address change orchestration - Banking

Streamline and accelerate coverage confirmation and premium calculations after postal address change

Overview

Banking procedures are inherently complex, especially behind the scenes processes that result from postal address changes. Manual procedures across multiple disparate systems hinder banks’ ability to provide informed customer service. Banks need a solution that supports making faster adjustments and delivering timely and accurate information to customers.

This use case accelerates banking IT teams’ ability to deliver a streamlined address change orchestration and management solution. The solution also supports customer service teams’ ability to upsell and cross-sell personalized banking products and services.

Ultimately, banks will be able to meet the growing demands of digital-first consumers in the hyper-competitive banking industry.

Use case description

The address change orchestration solution integrates key data from multiple systems into a bank’s central customer repository through an address change that is initiated via Financial Services Cloud (FSC). Marketing Cloud enables the bank to provide tailored offers to cross-sell and upsell bank products based on the client’s new address. This solutions helps streamline a common bank process while enabling tailored customer engagement and excellent support.

Note that custom code or Lightning Web Components must be added to the Salesforce organizations to call the appropriate Experience APIs to verify a postal address.

Technical considerations and constraints

The following lists the technical considerations and constraints for this solution design:

  • Only changes to a postal address of an existing customer follows the new address change process.
  • By default, the Customers Process API implementation has all target systems enabled to support all use cases provided by this accelerator; unneeded targets can be disabled by modifying the application properties, as appropriate.

Processing views

This section provides more detailed processing sequence diagrams for address verification and change execution.

Address verification

The address verification process provides a means for applications to ensure an address change is valid before attempting to process it. This helps prevent invalid addresses from being stored and replicated across multiple systems.

Address change execution

The process of handling a postal address change as part of a general customer profile or individual party update is performed by the Customers Process API. The sequence diagram below shows how an additional update notification for a postal address change is handled by the Customer Addresses Process API.
