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 After signup (agreement completed) and before go-live (before end of August 2011), no earlier than May 2011 SIS-RA44-Migration & More Info Breakout 15 Sept 2010

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 July 2011 for those that signed their agreement and set up their profile and will not be shut down (available after go-live) SIS-RA44-Migration & More Info Breakout 15 Sept 2010

Connectivity Testing System connection to IS needs to be established for IS files (IS-IDEC, IS-XML) and old IDEC  Needs to be done before go-live, when old IDEC switches to IS (see Migration breakout presentation) 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 SIS-RA44-Migration & More Info Breakout 15 Sept 2010

Certification Slots & Scheduling 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 will receive 2 or 3 testing slots per category (see Migration presentation) for free Slots can be scheduled after: You return your signed agreement, and Sandbox is opened You can use sandbox for unlimited testing before your certification slot Two chances to test the file per slot You lose a spot if you fail the test twice or miss the appointment Any additional slots will be charged, and be allocated at a lower priority SIS-RA44-Migration & More Info Breakout 15 Sept 2010
