February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration16 SIS Prime Source Codes  Old IDEC  Non-migrated billing carriers will still use the current Source Codes (correct or wrong)  Migrated billing carriers will use the new Source Codes Result: Non-migrated billed carriers must recognize both sets of Source Codes

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration17 Invoice Header Values & Invoice Numbers

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration18 Old IDEC: Invoice Values (from migrated carriers) IS-Format Input: Prime RM BM Integrated Settlement Old IDEC Output: Prime Applies to non-migrated billed carriers only!  Remember: down conversion of prime Source Codes only  Result: missing records in the invoices from migrated billing entities; invoice values not summing up  Note: In case of invoices flagged as SIS transactions: then a difference between invoice values and the sum records always relates to “excluded” non prime transactions

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration19 Old IDEC: Invoice Numbers (ex SIS)  During migration we will have  Old IDEC input and output: 6N mandatory & 8 A/N optional  IS-IDEC input and output: 10 A/N  Old IDEC SIS transaction invoice number could contain alpha codes

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration20 Batch Size

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration21 Old IDEC: Batch Size (ex SIS)  SIS – Batch size is unlimited (i.e. 99‘999)  Old IDEC – Batch size is 200  RAM rule to prevent migrated billing carriers to exceed the batch size of 200  However, no IS Validation Results in: non migrated carriers could receive batch sizes higher than 200

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration22 Sampling – Number of Invoices per Period

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration23 Old IDEC – Form A/B: Invoice Numbers  Today old IDEC:  One Invoice Number per billing carrier Form A/B per period  After SIS go-live:  More than one invoice number possible per billing carrier Form A/B per period SIS will not prevent this  Recommendation to migrated Sampling carriers: Submit only one Form A/B per period, unless agreed differently on a bilateral basis Results in: non migrated carrier must be able to handle this Sampling Members to agree change to RAM B1, Attachment A, Para 4 to allow multiple invoices per period.

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration29 Pre SIS go-live: Basic Member Profile All Carriers: Set up basic SIS Member Profile in IS-WEB  Needed to control old IDEC process  Needed to control IS-WEB access  Needed to validate submissions of migrated carriers

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration30 Rejection Values - 1 Context:  2nd and 3rd RM: the representation of rejection values have changed in SIS  showing the total amounts instead of difference amounts Migrated carriers:  After migration, there will still be RMs coming in, for billings performed before migrating  If the rejecting carrier is non-migrated, these RMs come in the „old format“  showing difference amounts Results in: migrated carriers need to handle these cases in their own RA systems

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration31 Rejection Values - 2 Non-Migrated carriers:  RMs from non-migrated carriers may be based on the difference value or may be based on the total value (depending on the rejecting carriers internal processes)  RMs from migrated carriers will be based on total values When you reject this RM, you have to go through IS-Web and use the total concept Results in:  Non-migrated carriers need to handle these cases in their own RA systems (see ISPG, chapter 3.8.)

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration33 Migrated carriers remove paper invoice Migrated Billing Carriers can remove the paper invoice  Migrated billing carriers may remove the paper invoice three (3) months after migration  Bilateral agreements for an earlier or later removal possible  ACH proposes to remove paper immediately  Non-migrated billed carriers have to access IS-WEB in order to receive their invoices (Access IS-WEB, manually search their invoices and supporting documents and print them out on their printer and paper)

February 2011SIS P3 – ACH Annual Meeting - Technical Migration34 Non-Migrated Carriers to respond via SIS Pax and Cargo:  RAM A10 – Part 1: If an airline receives a billing or rejection or correspondence that was submitted via SIS, and it wishes to dispute that billing, rejection or correspondence, it has to do so via SIS, therefore for such cases RAM Chapter A10 Part 2 applies. As a non-migrated carrier, you will use SIS (IS-WEB) latest from September 2011 on !
