7 February 2011 SIS P3 – ACH meeting – Migration and More7 Help with IS-WEB  Computer Based Training (CBT) – The CBT is a computer application with walkthroughs and exercises which show how to use IS  User Guide – Similar to the CBT, but the User Guide is a reference document which goes into more detail for a particular step  Both the CBT and the User Guide will be function-oriented, and describe screens as part of the bigger picture, e.g., How to Run a Report or How to Reject a Billing. Release in June 2011.  Online Help will be available on each IS-WEB screen and describe each element, form, or button in detail, though not necessarily part of the bigger picture. Released as part of IS-WEB screens.

8 February 2011 SIS P3 – ACH meeting – Migration and More8 Workshops  Global workshops will be organized (LIM, PEK, NBO) for March to May 2011 which will provide for final push into SIS  Goal is to provide in-depth details on IS solution, IS-WEB screens, business process changes, and system changes  These two-day workshops aim to bring greater understanding of SIS to the airlines. For those that have missed previous meetings like RA44, these are great opportunities to learn about the added value that SIS can bring to the current interline billing and settlement process  Attendees will need to have a basic level of information – having understood ICH UG and reviewed the ISPG

15 February 2011 SIS P3 – ACH meeting – Migration and More15 Profile Updates  Your profile needs to be completed before go-live – even if you don’t plan to migrate to SIS immediately  Your profile identifies you to migrated participants that will be billing you (location information, contact users, etc) and what types of files you’ll receive from IS  Some information will be pre-populated for you from ICH, ACH, and RA databases  Member codes, legal names, clearing house statuses, contacts (RA, ICH, ACH)  All data will have to be either validated or completed by you  It might be done off-line via a template  After signup (agreement completed) and before go-live (before end of September 2011).

16 February 2011 SIS P3 – ACH meeting – Migration and More16 Sandbox  The sandbox will be completely automated and allow you to upload IS format files (IS-IDEC and IS-XML) and receive a validation report, or to download example files (IS-IDEC and IS-XML)  Will return: File passes validation report, or a list of the errors that occurred, in the same format as will be produced in IS after go-live  The sandbox does not allow you to demo other IS-WEB functionality (e.g. reporting or entering transactions)  The validation will be based on your profile (e.g. SMI (clearing house indicator) must be valid)  Available August 2011 for those that signed their agreement and set up their profile and will not be shut down (available after go-live)

17 February 2011 SIS P3 – ACH meeting – Migration and More17 Connectivity Testing  System connection to IS needs to be established for IS files (IS-IDEC, IS- XML) and old IDEC (unless you use iiNet)  Needs to be done before go-live, when old IDEC switches to IS  Declare your intentions to SIS Operations team when returning the agreement, or afterwards No participation agreement  No connectivity testing  No (old) IDEC* * After go-live

18 February 2011 SIS P3 – ACH meeting – Migration and More18 Certification Process  To submit a file (IS-IDEC or IS-XML) after go-live you will need to pass a “test” for that billing category (e.g. Pax Rejections) and certify that you can produce a valid file  Certification is not required for IS-WEB  You can use sandbox for unlimited testing before your certification slot  Successful certification process is not subject to charge
