7. Open Discussion & Notes The following items / issues were discussed 8/28/2013 Can a lump sum ePayment be made without identifying the transaction numbers with DOF applying the money as needed? No. Specific transaction numbers must be identified. Can you make an ePayment after 5 pm? Yes. If the documents in the transaction have all been examined and deemed acceptable for recording, they will be recorded as soon as payment is received, whenever payment is received. What happens if a transaction is underpaid? Underpayment should not happen on an initial eSubmission as ePayment requires full payment of the amount due on a transaction – it does not allow a partial payment. If a document is rejected and upon re-submission an additional amount is due, payment can be made within the payment window. 79/4/2013

8. Open Discussion & Notes The following items / issues were discussed 8/28/2013 On the flowchart, what is the Sync Submission box? ACRIS provides two options for XML submission: Synchronous and Asynchronous. Synchronous provides real time validation and processing of the submission while Asynchronous stores the submission in the system for delayed processing (approximately 30 minutes). For a portal company, Synchronous submission may be the better option. On the flowchart, what is the purpose of the Preview box? Preview allows the user to see what the entire document package looks like including the generated cover pages. It allows the use to verify that they have uploaded the correct PDFs and that everything is in the correct sequence. Why wasn’t an URL provided for the ESubmission web service? URLs were only provided for currently available production web services. DOF still needs to develop the ESubmission web service. 89/4/2013

9. Open Discussion & Notes The following items / issues were discussed 8/28/2013 Are multiple NYC.ID accounts needed? No. each portal company needs only a single NYC.ID account. Are multiple customer profiles needed? No. You may find one profile satisfactory to meet your needs. While you may do so to segregate transactions for each of your customers, you can only aggregate transactions for ePayment within a customer profile. Why can’t you ESubmit tax forms? Tax forms once created must be brought into a Cover Page. The Cover Page including the tax forms is then ESubmitted. 99/4/2013

10. Open Discussion & Notes The following items / issues were discussed 9/4/2013 Comments and Questions on Specification Documents will be given to DOF by the close of business Friday 9/6. Based on review, the expectation is that we will have a call to review comments and question on Wednesday 9/10. There is a desire to understand how an eCheck is processed and what information is transmitted so accounting departments can reconcile. 109/4/2013
