August 2008SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast7 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

August 2008SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast8 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

August 2008SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast12 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 3 rd - stage RM) and cannot be out-of-order

August 2008SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast14 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
15
August 2008SIS – Materials – Pax Non-Prime Billing Webcast15 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
