  13. Business Intelligence (BI)Back Office Integration & MIRFLX Overview February 11, 2011 Confidential 13

  14. Business Intelligence Engine The FLX BI Module contains all transactional data (including history) and enables interface integration supporting third-party and proprietary reporting, queries, quality control, and back-office management Back office integration is completed automatically by the BI engine creating a FLX Management Interface Record (MIRFLX) which is a replication of an industry standard MIR format.

  15. Business Intelligence Engine Back Office integration is managed through a simple automated download processes (one-time): FLX BI automatically creates a MIRFLX upon each ticketing transaction (ticket issue, exchange, etc) and places this as a file on a secure server. Each agency has a file automatically set up based on the unique agency PCC The agency runs a Windows install program which will run as a background process on the agency desktop. The agency configures the program FLX ACL using one or multiple PCC. The agency determines the download interval through configuration settings. The agency configures a local destination directory where the specific agency MIR files will be downloaded. The agency configures their back office system to accept the MIRflx files from their local file

  16. Business Intelligence Engine Once a successful file download, the MIR server automatically archives the specific MIR record with appropriate date/time stamp. The agency can dynamically access any archived record based on a date search. See screen shot examples on next slides
