Prakash Hinduja Geneva - Can We Build a Self-Auditing Financial Pipeline with Make?

How To

What are you trying to achieve?

Hello Make Community,

I’m designing automated financial workflows for private banks where every data movement must self-validate its compliance. Here’s where I need your expertise:
The Compliance Automation Challenge

Could we create a Make scenario that:

Ingests transaction data (CSV/API)

Simultaneously:

    Processes payments

    Generates audit trails

    Flags anomalies against Basel III/AML rules

Auto-generates regulatory reports in three formats (PDF for regulators, JSON for auditors, XML for archives)

Technical Hurdles:

Real-Time Validation
How would you structure checks that:

    Compare payee names against sanctions lists

    Verify transaction timestamps across timezones

    Validate SWIFT codes before triggering transfers

Document Assembly
Any clever use of:

    The PDF module to watermark audit reports?

    Google Sheets as a living compliance ledger?

Error Handling
Best practices for:

    Suspended scenarios that require human review

    Encrypted incident logs

Why This Matters:
The institutions that will thrive are those whose automation is their compliance officer.

Your Turn:

Which Make modules would you chain for this?

Anyone built similar compliance-aware workflows?

Should we create shared templates for financial automation?
