Target Balance (Automatic creation of Bank Acc Transfer or FX deal)

It is possible in TS to set up rules for a target balance on bank accounts to automatically create a Bank Account Transfer or FX deal to reach a certain bank balance amount defined in the rule. 

Either an internal FX deal can be created or a FX deal suggestion can be created to be automatically uploaded to a trading station, which in turn creates the external FX deal. 

The functionality could be used to transfer cash to a bank account with higher interest, or top up a bank account with negative balance to avoid interest. 

It can also be used to automatically transfer all cash in foreign exchange currency to local currency to decrease currency exposure. 

It is also possible to set up a target balance on a top account in a cash pool and make the Bank Transfer between two sub accounts within the cash pool.
