2 One of the objectives of the CH was to eventually replace paper transmittals To do this we had to ensure that data going into the CH was of a high quality so that users could rely upon it in a paperless world.

3 Created standardized file definitions for each of the three required files, the Licensee Demographic Data, the Transmittal Data and the Summary Transmittal Data (new file required for data verification).

4 Article III, Section I, Exchange…. D) IFTA, Inc. shall create Clearinghouse field formats and definitions for Licensee Demographic Data, Transmittal Data and Summary Transmittal Data and make them available to Participating Members for purposes of uploading data.

5 E) Participating Members must transmit Licensee Demographic, Transmittal and Summary Transmittal Data in the required field formats created by IFTA, Inc. Failure to transmit all required data may result in the suspension of the Participating Member’s privilege to participate in the Clearinghouse.

6 Article III, Section IV - Funds Netting 1)Each Participating Member agrees to participate in the netting of funds due among the Participating Members. IFTA, Inc. shall establish a funds netting process whereby each Participating Member either pays or receives the net amount of funds due to or from the other Participating Members.

7 2) A Participating Member owing funds shall timely transmit its funds to the account established by IFTA, Inc. with a secure financial institution (Clearinghouse Account). Timeliness of the transmittal of funds shall be based on the funding schedule established by IFTA, Inc. The timely receipt of a Participating Member’s funds into the Clearinghouse Account satisfies the Participating Member’s obligation to send funds to other member jurisdictions pursuant to P1040 of the IFTA Procedures Manual.

8 3) IFTA Inc. shall distribute funds from the Clearinghouse Account to the recipient Participating Members by the first business day following the end of the month in which the funds were received. In the event that a Participating Member fails to timely remit its funds, IFTA Inc. shall distribute available funds on a pro rata basis. Upon receipt of any late funds, IFTA Inc. shall distribute the funds to the recipient Participating Members. Any additional cost due to a late distribution shall be borne by the Participating Member that failed to timely remit its funds.
