Why New Output Reports

In May 2013 the ISSWG endorsed a recommendation to enhance the new outputs formats with aims of:

Minimise the number of outputs whilst maximising the content and to provide a set of outputs that can be applied globally across all BSPs

Align to airline current requirements for Electronic Documents (Current reports are based on the paper based documents, OPTATs, ATBs MPDs)

7

Benefits Outputs will use standard nomenclature

Reports provide a user friendly explanatory notes, in the header

Structure of reports has changed for a better display of information

Tax Breakdown is now an optional parameter, at country level, which can reduce the number of pages for billing reports by up to 80%

Statistical outputs based on calendar month and the Date of Issue of the document

8

Regulatory Requirements for Outputs Any report distributed in the BSP subject to regulatory

requirements will be analyzed and, if required, developed.
