ABSTRACT:
A method, apparatus and article of manufacture to aggregate automated transaction processing and facilitate database integrity. In one embodiment of the invention, identified transactions are interrogated and their associated processing requirements determined. Once determined, transaction processing logic relating to database connection, startup steps, end of step, commit or roll back are removed with the resulting transaction stored as a callable DLL. The resultant DLL or DLLs further modified to re-sequence validation logic to on input data appropriately ordered sequence. The invention additionally comprises first logic which connects to a database in advance of referencing any callable DLL functions; second logic commits to updating a database following successful execution of any called DLL functions and third logic which rollbacks updates to a database following unsuccessful execution of called DLL functions as well as startup step and end of step processing logic. Consequently, multiple transaction processing steps are combined into a single transaction (DLL) which enhances operational efficiency allows end to end acknowledgment and is decreases execution time for multi-step processing.
