A new way of receiving transcripts!

As part of the IDTS project, PESC Transcript Software, a Java system is being developed to accomplish many of the functions for which OUS campuses have traditionally used EDI.Smart.

•    EDI file (ASCI X12 transaction sets, processes ts130 and ts131, others may be present but are not processed)
•    EDI.Smart files from Banner (control, data)
•    PESC XML transcripts

Process:
  From the command line:  Java -jar TranscriptConverter_v1_1_0.jar [programSpec]
    Where programSpec is one of:
•    TS130toPESC
•    PESCtoTS130 [xmlFileName]
•    PESCtoPDF [xmlFileName] [pdfFileName]
