Central Nervous System

Anchor FAL™
Intelligent Integration
Middleware

The single gateway for all financial transactions across the Anchor Platform Suite. Every write from Pario and Genra routes through FAL — enabling config-driven backend switching, zero-disruption Oracle-to-Anchor migration, and instant rollback at the flip of a switch.

Four pillars of intelligent integration.

Anchor FAL is not a simple message broker. It is a fully stateful, AI-enhanced transaction routing engine with built-in resilience, dual-write capability, and entity-level backend configuration.

1

Transaction Routing

Upstream platforms POST financial transactions to FAL. Each transaction is validated against schema and business rules, checked for idempotency to prevent duplicate processing, queued via BullMQ for reliable async delivery, and routed to the correct financial backend based on per-entity configuration.

RECEIVED VALIDATED QUEUED ROUTING DELIVERED CONFIRMED
  • Schema validation and business rule enforcement on every transaction
  • Idempotency-key based deduplication prevents double-processing
  • BullMQ-backed async queue with priority levels and rate limiting
  • Per-entity routing configuration — each country routes independently
AI: Transaction validation, anomaly detection, predictive routing, compliance monitoring
2

Failure Handling & Resilience

Enterprise-grade resilience with intelligent retry policies and circuit breaker protection. No transaction is ever silently lost. Every failure is tracked, retried with exponential backoff, and escalated when human intervention is required.

  • Progressive retry policy: immediate, 30s, 5min, 30min, 2hr backoff intervals
  • Dead letter queue after 5 failed attempts with automatic Finance Manager alert
  • Circuit breaker: opens when >50% error rate detected in 60-second window
  • Open circuit rejects with BACKEND_UNAVAILABLE, preventing cascade failures
  • Half-open test after 60 seconds: single probe transaction to verify recovery
  • Full telemetry on every retry, failure, and circuit state transition

Zero silent failures. Every transaction that enters FAL is either successfully delivered and confirmed, or escalated to a human with full context. There is no third outcome.

Dual-Write Architecture

The Parallel Guarantee — FAL writes identical transactions to BOTH Oracle AND Anchor Fiscus simultaneously. AI reconciliation compares outputs in real time, building confidence before any entity cuts over to Anchor Fiscus as the system of record.

  • Identical transaction written to Oracle and Anchor Fiscus in parallel
  • AI reconciliation compares outputs and classifies every discrepancy
  • Timing differences: auto-resolved (eventual consistency)
  • Rounding differences: auto-resolved (known precision variance)
  • Genuine errors: flagged for human review with full diff context
  • 90-day validation window covering 3 complete month-end close cycles
  • Module-by-module activation — GL first, then AP, AR, and so on

INSTANT ROLLBACK: A single API call switches 100% of traffic back to Oracle. No migration scripts, no downtime, no data loss. The most conservative cutover strategy in enterprise ERP history.

AI: Dual-write reconciliation, discrepancy classification, performance optimization

Backend Configuration

Config-driven backend switching per entity. When Anchor Fiscus goes live, FAL's routing config switches — Pario and Genra never change. Entity-by-entity cutover at whatever pace builds confidence.

  • Three modes per entity: Oracle (legacy), Fiscus (live), or Dual-Write (parallel)
  • Configuration change via API or admin UI — takes effect immediately
  • Pario and Genra are completely insulated from backend changes
  • Each entity migrates independently on its own timeline
  • Module-level granularity: GL can go live while AP stays on Oracle

The Golden Rule: No platform ever connects directly to Oracle, to another platform, or to any external financial system. ALL financial transactions route through Anchor FAL. This is non-negotiable architecture.

How every financial write flows.

A clean, auditable architecture. Upstream platforms post to FAL. FAL validates, queues, and routes to the configured backend. The upstream platform never knows — or cares — which backend is active.

Zero Downtime Migration

The Migration Risk Eliminator

Anchor FAL transforms Oracle replacement from a high-risk big-bang cutover into a measured, evidence-based migration with instant rollback. Run Oracle and Anchor Fiscus side by side for as long as needed. Compare every transaction. Build confidence through data, not hope. Cut over one entity, one module, one country at a time — and reverse it in under a second if anything looks wrong.

Zero equivalent in Oracle SOA Suite

The central nervous system of enterprise integration.

Anchor FAL™ — every transaction routed, every write audited, every migration risk eliminated.
