Interbank Transfer Implementation Summary

Project Overview

A complete interbank transfer flow has been implemented in the feature/send-interbank module following the 6-screen design specification. The implementation provides a seamless user experience for transferring money between bank accounts with comprehensive state management, error handling, and validation.

Data Models

InterbankTransferState

data class InterbankTransferState(
    val currentStep: Step,                    // Current screen
    val loadingState: LoadingState,           // Loading/Error state
    val fromAccounts: List<AccountOption>,    // Available accounts
    val selectedFromAccount: AccountOption?,  // Selected sender
    val selectedRecipient: RecipientInfo?,    // Selected recipient
    val transferAmount: String,               // Amount
    val transferDate: String,                 // Date
    val transferDescription: String,          // Description
    val isProcessing: Boolean,                // Processing flag
    val errorMessage: String?,                // Error message
    val transferResponse: Any?,               // API response
)

RecipientInfo

data class RecipientInfo(
    val clientId: Long,
    val officeId: Int,
    val accountId: Int,
    val accountType: Int,
    val clientName: String,
    val accountNo: String,
)

Flow Architecture

State Transitions

SelectAccount → SearchRecipient → TransferDetails → PreviewTransfer
                                                           ↓
                                                    (Confirm)
                                                           ↓
                                                    TransferSuccess
                                                    or
                                                    TransferFailed

Backward Navigation

• Each screen can navigate back to the previous step
• Edit button on Preview returns to Transfer Details
• Retry on failure returns to Preview

Data Persistence

• Transfer payload is built incrementally as user progresses
• All data stored in ViewModel state
• Automatic reconstruction of payload for API call

Validation Strategy

Account Selection

• Accounts loaded from repository
• Empty state if no accounts available
• Error state with retry option

Recipient Search

• Search query stored in state
• Results displayed in real-time
• Empty state when no results

Transfer Details

• Amount: Must be decimal, > 0
• Date: Format validation
• Description: Must not be empty
• Continue button disabled until all valid

Preview

• All data reviewed before confirmation
• Processing state during API call
• Error handling with retry option

Error Handling

Loading Errors

• Display error message
• Show retry option
• Graceful degradation

Validation Errors

• Field-level validation
• Clear error messages
• Disable actions until valid

Transfer Errors

• API error messages displayed
• Retry mechanism available
• Support contact option
• Detailed error logging

API Integration

Repository Methods Used

// Load available accounts
suspend fun getTransferTemplate(): AccountOptionsTemplate

// Process transfer
suspend fun makeTransfer(payload: TransferPayload): DataState<TPTResponse>

Transfer Payload

TransferPayload(
    fromOfficeId = selectedFromAccount?.officeId,
    fromClientId = selectedFromAccount?.clientId,
    fromAccountType = selectedFromAccount?.accountType?.id,
    fromAccountId = selectedFromAccount?.accountId,
    toOfficeId = selectedRecipient?.officeId,
    toClientId = selectedRecipient?.clientId,
    toAccountType = selectedRecipient?.accountType,
    toAccountId = selectedRecipient?.accountId,
    transferDate = transferDate,
    transferAmount = transferAmount.toDoubleOrNull() ?: 0.0,
    transferDescription = transferDescription,
    locale = "en_IN",
    dateFormat = "dd MMMM yyyy",
)

UI/UX Features

Visual Design

• Consistent with design system (KptTheme)
• Avatar boxes for account identification
• Color-coded sections (primary, secondary, error)
• Proper spacing and typography

User Feedback

• Loading indicators during async operations
• Progress indication through step numbers
• Success/failure visual feedback
• Error messages with actionable solutions

Accessibility

• Proper content descriptions
• Keyboard navigation support
• Screen reader compatibility
• Color contrast compliance

Integration Guide

Adding to App Navigation

// In your main navigation graph
interbankTransferScreen(
    onBackClick = { navController.popBackStack() },
    onTransferSuccess = { destination ->
        navController.navigate(destination) {
            popUpTo(0)
        }
    },
    onContactSupport = { openSupportChat() },
)

Navigating to Interbank Transfer

navController.navigateToInterbankTransfer(
    returnDestination = "home",
)

Dependency Injection Setup

// In your Koin module
includes(interbankTransferModule)
