  7. Introduction to SIS (General Webcast) • “Integrated Settlement” is based on the principles of completely paperless billing, invoicing, and settlement • Benefits include: • Data quality improvements to the billed carrier • Billing carrier’s upload format doesn’t impact billed carrier’s download format • Reduction in paper and courier fees and internal supply chain (paper handling) costs • Automation & Optional Services • Quicker cash flow due to reduced rejection timeframes • ‘Airline Profile’ to be a centralized database for all IS options and permissions • IS features discussed are subject to change SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  8. Non-core Functionality • Core functionality of SIS enables paperless billing and settlement. • The non-core functionality is considered by the SIS Working Groups to be “value-added services”; its final inclusion is dependent upon implementation costs and airline demand and will likely be billed to carriers separately, based on usage. • Non-core functionality includes (but is not limited to): • IS-XML File Format • Non-core functionality is coloured orange on the following pages SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  10. Settlement Processes ICH ACH Central Repository Processes at time of Sales NFP engine ARC COMPASS™ Rejection, Billing, & Credit Memos – With IS Integrated Settlement Validation: • Guarantees links between records (e.g. 2nd and 1st RMs) • Enforces timeframes and “order” (1st RM -> 2nd RM -> 3rd RM) • Ensures file is properly formed IS-WEB IS-WEB Billed Airline Billing Airline “Digital Signature” Company IS-XML IS-XML Enabling Processes Enabling Processes Billing & Invoicing Processes IS-IDEC IS-IDEC Prorate Engine Usage File Send RMs, BMs, CMs Receive RMs, BMs, CMs Validation Send Supporting Docs Receive Supporting Docs (either order) SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  11. Settlement Processes ICH ACH Processes at time of Sales NFP engine ARC COMPASS™ Correspondence – With IS Integrated Settlement Validation: • Guarantees links between records (e.g. 2nd and 1st RM) • Enforces timeframes and “order” • Ensures file is properly formed IS-WEB IS-WEB Billed Airline Billing Airline “Digital Signature” Company IS-XML IS-XML Enabling Processes Enabling Processes Billing & Invoicing Processes IS-IDEC IS-IDEC Central Repository Prorate Engine Usage File Send Correspondence (including attachments) Receive Correspondence (including attachments) Validation SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  12. Correspondence – With IS • Correspondence can include an “authority to bill” flag which identifies when the authority to bill has been issued • Not tied to settlement periods like transactions in Integrated Settlement – real-time and similar to e-mail but via IS-WEB interface • Validation ensures no “cross-over” – correspondence can only be in reply to another correspondence (or 3rd-stage RM) and cannot be out-of-order SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

Enabling Processes Enabling Processes Billing & Invoicing Processes IS-IDEC IS-IDEC Prorate Engine Usage File * Could be used with all record types (including prime coupon billings, Cargo, etc) SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  14. Central Repository & Supporting Docs • What? • Any type of supporting document (image, PDF, IS-XML, etc) • How long? • As long as the data is operationally required • When? • Before or after the associated record is uploaded (with “pending attachments” flag, which allows for notifications if not uploaded) • How? • To be determined in the next phase with the help of the supplier SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  15. Audit Trail & Rejection History • With operational data being stored: • Future records (e.g. rejections) don’t need supporting documents re-attached • IS-WEB can be used to search and take action on previous billings: • Search & browse through all records for which your carrier billed or was billed • View audit trail of linked correspondences, rejections, and prime billings • Find outgoing correspondences that haven’t been responded to • Go directly to appropriate action SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  16. Audit Trail Analysis & Reporting • Search by accounting code, coupon number, source code, billing period, authority to bill, etc • Drill down through tickets, coupons, tax breakdowns, correspondences, etc • Viewing and downloading of analysis (reporting) available • Actions (where applicable): • View the rejection history • Create a rejection memo • Create correspondence • Create a billing memo SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  17. Rejection History (example view) Create Correspondence SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  18. Passenger File Formats • Subject to change based on costs and carrier demand • See ‘IS File Formats’ and ‘Pax Prime’ webcasts for more information SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast

  19. Next Steps – Sep to Dec 2008 • Webcasts through September • RA annual meeting (September 08) • Presentation and breakout sessions for information and discussion • FinCom (September 08) • Update on SIS (they strongly support the project) • Board of Governors (December 08) • They wish to see radical change and will decide the way forward • They will be looking for initiatives that reduce operating costs, improve data quality, and help to meet environmental objectives • SIS Project Team • Continues the momentum through to Phase 3 SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast
