Card Briefs: System Analyzes Commercial Card Portfolios

First Data Corp. has introduced CommercialView, a management- information reporting system for commercial card portfolios.

It enables the creation of customized reports, such as portfolio performance and trend analyses, and corporate spending reports.

"Unlike other management information tools that permit commercial card issuers to track activity on only one type of card, CommercialView enables issuers to access data from purchasing, travel and entertainment, and business card platforms," said Kathy Marinello, president of the electronic payments group in First Data Corp.'s card services group.

Card issuers served by First Data can provide the system to their corporate customers, allowing joint access to the data base and improved customer service, the processor said. First Data plans upgrades to the Microsoft Windows-based system, in1cluding general-ledger mapping capability, in the first quarter.
