Controlling relevant information (e.g. cost centre codes, project codes, etc) can be automatically allocated to each booking entry. Furthermore allocation keys (e.g. headcount or surface area) can also be allocated. This data can then be transferred to an appropriate controlling system on a daily/weekly/monthly period. OBS offers standard interfaces to various different systems e.g. SAP, ZEB and KSP.

Regulatory reporting and corporate group reporting is done using OBS interfaces from OBS-REW and other OBS modules e.g.:

• German regulatory reporting including AWV and KWG
• SAMBA
• DaVinci
• BAIS (in development)
• Fire for Swiss regulatory reporting
• rFrame for British regulatory reporting
• SmartStream for Austrian regulatory reporting
• FRS/DWII for Belgian, Dutch and Luxembourg reporting

With the data warehouse I-Pool, OBS offers a reporting environment that can link to house internal systems. From I-Pool all data required for group or head-office reporting can be taken, and multiple other house internal systems can be connected for reporting purposes (e.g. Basel II - Pillar II, risk management systems, etc.).

Similar to all other OBS modules, data is recorded and modified using the OBS-GUI Graphical User Interface.
