Overview
In conjunction with a new 3rd party company InfoSlips,
www.infoslips.com., ITS created a facility to enable users
to give their employees an electronic payment advice instead
off the traditional paper pay slip. Please note that for internal use,
we can talk about InfoSlips, but to
our clients this facility will be marketed under iComms - iMails.
The current available programs generating the comma delimited files for
the personnel biographical detail and the salary detail file
is in the format that ITS negotiated with InfoSlips for
their own internal use.
iMails consist of information that the institutions wish to convey to
their clients (recipients). This information will be extracted from
their database application e.g Student Management System, Payroll
System, Financial management System, Library System etc. Our example
will be of an electronic pay slip.
After the format and content has been finalized and extraction programs
are in place, all clients will receive a welcoming letter from
InfoSlips. This letter will also supply to each and every client
an unique PUK code. The clients need to install the viewer
provided by InfoSlips to enable them to view their iMail (Infoslip).
If client view the iMail for the first time, he will need to supply the
PUK code provided to him. Client will also be prompted to supply
a pass word.
This pass word will be valid for any initial iMails as well as any subsequent iMails.
Please refer to the marketing glossy for more detail regarding security issues.
Purpose of this Document
This document will explain what must be done in order to enable this
facility at a client. It will explain the different
elements on the Infoslip as well as the working and set up of the
print format of the electronic advice.
Pre-Enabling Preparations
Once a client has indicated that they want to make use off this
facility, the third party partner must be notified and a
meeting must be set up between ITS, InfoSlips and the client.
The client needs to decide what information they need on the electronic
payment advice. This will be the personnel information as
well as the salary transaction information.
If the standard generation programs do not cater for all the data
the user wants on their payment advice, a local software
generation program must be developed for
