DRS DATA SHARING AGREEMENT
Exhibit A
DSA-2000-013
STATEMENT OF WORK
1. DATA INFORMATION
a. Data Description: Transmittal information (member compensation,
member and employer contributions, service and other relevant member
demographic information)
b.
Data Ownership:
Port Angeles
c.
Data Origin:
Port Angeles's payroll system
d. Exchange Mechanism(s):
Providing Agency: Port Angeles's manual FTP transmittal process will
submit its transmittal data via a file name "0751mmmv.fix" (where mmm
= month and v = version). The file will be transmitted using an FTP
connection to DRS's directory
"/home/DRS/FTParea/transmittal/wa/ptangewa" on the www.wa.goY server
at the Department of Information Services (DIS).
Port Angeles must supply DRS with the name and e-mail address of the
person(s) responsible for the on-going support of this transmittal process.
Receiving Agency: Periodically each day, DRS's transmittal-FTP file
consolidation process will query all FTP transmittal directories on the DIS
UNIX Internet server www wa gOY. If the file "0751 mmmv. fix" exists, the
process will move it with other existing FTP transmittal files to the
convert-upload FTP input directory
"home/DRS/FTParea/transmittal/collect_files." DRS will process the file
using the client server application (convert-upload). After a successful
data transfer, the FTP file will be deleted from the
"/home/D RS/FTParea/transmittal/wa/ptangewa" dIrectory.
The convert/upload process will:
1. check the format and layout of the records and make the necessary
changes to match the input requirements of the nightly transmittal
process, which runs on the System 390 mainframe.
2. create a batch FTP process that uploads the file into the mainframe
PDS "DRSES124.PC8600.TRNSM.INPUT.PDS." The member
name will be Fddmmmn where:
F denotes FTP
dd = transmittal day
mmm = transmittal month
n = transmittal sequence number.
e. Data Use: DRS will use the transmittal information to update
members' accounts and create employer invoices. DRS's Employer
Information System (EIS) will process the information and the member
information will be stored in DRS's Member Information System (MIS).
f. Data Specs: A file named "0751mmmv.fix" will be electronically
submitted to DRS by Port Angeles personnel. The file will be in one of
the acceptable DRS transmIttal reporting formats (See Record Layout
below).
RECORD LAYOUT
DRS will accept several electronic reporting formats for the submission of
transmittal records. The reporting formats include ASCII text, tab
delimited records; ASCII text, fixed length records; and the multiple
record layout transmittal report structure for TRS Plan 3. Detailed record
layout descriptions for each reporting format are contained in the DRS
booklet Technical Requirements for Automated Reporting:.

Angeles's file with all other transmIttal-FTP files into directory
