BAML Claim Manager system has the below main services

CBAR - we get 4 files a day, no date on the file name. Hence we run the file on certain times. Same file is loaded twice to load Dividend and Coupon records separately.
EBAR - Dividend only - It looks up the data from BAML EBAR database and creates a flat file to load the data. It records the timings of the latest lookup and looks for the data which is updated after this time. It is a cycling service. With the Brexit upgrade, we introduce another service as EBAR_1 as records for the Brexit Entity is stored on another EBAR database. 
CPNEBAR - Works same as EBAR import but loads coupon data. There is also CPNEBAR_1 service for Brexit
CPNCAPS - Coupon only -There could be more than one file a day. There is two types of files, a)CBAR b)EBAR. Cpncaps records are the pre-pay date records and they can be updated by the CPNEBAR service too

They have Equilend matching module. Messages are generated and saved to a folder for ftp. We don't send the messages directly to Equilend. Response files are saved to a folder by BAML for our services to process.

They have Payment +settlement module too. Payment and the settlement messages are generated based on BAML template (not MT202 or 103). We get a Client SSI file on a daily basis and it is loaded by the CBAR service. SSI is uploaded to the Merit table but not maintained in Merit.  If there is an update the SSI on BAML side, we get a incremental SSI file which is used during the payment processing. 

Steve Davies and his team run daily, weekly and monthly reports via scheduler which is than distributed via email. They maintain this reports.
