Master SWIFT Standards
Transformer for SWIFT gives the analyst

complete mastery over SWIFT Standards,
dramatically accelerating projects to
produce high quality message validations,
business rules and mappings in a fraction
of the usual time.
Accelerate messaging projects

Using Transformer’s many advanced features the analyst can, for the first time,
not only specify but also build, test and deploy even the most complex
validations, enrichments and mappings. By removing the need for any
development coding stage, projects are greatly accelerated.
Transformer’s rich, highly optimised message definition libraries provide

another boost to the analyst’s productivity. The highly-regarded Transformer
SWIFT library encapsulates every aspect of SWIFT Standards, including network
validation rules. All messages in both the MT and MX series are fully covered
and MT-MX conversion mappings are also available as pre-built libraries.
Transformer’s powerful, intuitive Design-Time GUI presents SWIFT message

structures and mappings in an easily navigated, business-meaningful form,
giving analyst-level staff a clear picture of even the most complex structures.
Create mappings quickly
The analyst using Transformer can specify mappings very easily, copying a field from
the source to the target message with a simple drag and drop action. Transformer
also provides a wealth of predefined mapping actions that can be quickly selected to
carry out a huge range of transformations of message data. Complex conditional
logic is fully catered for - with no need for program code.
Specific mapping actions allowing the user to copy to/from common

Swift field structures (e.g. Name & Address, Party, Currency & Value)
allowing the user to quickly build the transformation they need.
Raise quality and reduce costs

Traditional testing is time-consuming: specifying a mapping,
deploying it as an executable, running it in a test environment, and
reporting the errors back for re-specification. With Transformer the
process is much simpler: the testing is carried out directly by the
analyst using Transformer’s fully integrated testing suite.
With Test-As-You-Build the analyst simply tests each element of the

mapping definition as soon as it is added. The results of each
mapping action on the test data are displayed immediately. This
capability moves the initial testing process as far upstream as possible,
ensuring high quality from the very start.
Once a mapping has been created, users can associate many test data
messages with this mapping and execute the entire group as one test.
Manage change with ease

Once the mapping is complete, Transformer protects the investment made by saving both
the input test data and the resulting output with the mapping itself. The test can thus be
quickly repeated later in regression mode, where all differences are highlighted.
Transformer can now also be configured as a SWIFT testing tool, responding to messages
with the same Acks and Naks as are returned by SWIFT’s test network.
Transformer’s powerful change management features greatly reduce the biggest overhead
faced by many financial institutions - simply keeping up with continually evolving
standards. The ‘Where Used?’ function for example instantly pinpoints every impact arising
from a change to a message field, or other component.
Deploy anywhere
Transformer’s simple API and its range of specialised service builders allow solutions to be
deployed rapidly into many kinds of integration architecture, including Enterprise Service Bus
(ESB), Web Service (SOA), Enterprise Application Integration (EAI), development frameworks
such as .NET or Java, and third-party applications.
Transformer fully supports Continuous Integration, including the automated execution of a

suite of tests at deployment time.
Selected by SWIFT
In 2012, following a rigorous evaluation process, SWIFT selected Transformer to embed within
its own integration solutions. Transformer is now being used in a large and growing number
of SWIFT client sites.
