Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

DocumentDescriptionRelease Notes
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)FAQs - Implementation and Transition (Update)

Added the following FAQ topics:

  • Mandatory vs Optional Classification of New Business Requirements including an answer to 

    "What does ASX define as mandatory, and what capabilities are / are not mandatory for day one?".

Updated to categorise existing FAQs by the following topics:

  • Approach to Implementation, Transition & Cutover;
  • Connectivity; and
  • Data Migration Activities.

Updated Approach to Implementation, Transition & Cutover list to include answers to the following questions:

  • What will ASX be looking to prove or ask users to do for each migration dress rehearsal?
  • Will there be multi-lateral activity and testing in IWT, and what role will ASX play in orchestrating some IWT scripted testing?
  • On Attestation will there be any differences in attestation between a participant and software vendors?
  • Is the ASX considering having a trading but non settlement day on the first day after the migration, to allow participants to focus on correct production system operation on day 1, and payment providers on day 2?

Updated Connectivity list to include answers to the following questions:

  • Will we need a separate agreement (and application process) for connectivity to ITE vs CDE?

  • When can we start configuring ASX Net for ITE & Prod?

  • A statement was made in the session about ASX Net requirements needing to be finalised by December. Is there some process whereby we can confirm that our existing ASX Net set up is suitable for ITE and Prod go-live of CHESS Replacement?

  • When will functionality of the ASX browser be published? Will the ASX browser be ready to test at the beginning of IWT?

  • Does the ITE (Industry Test Environment) become Production?

Updated Data Migration Activites list to include answers to the following questions:

  • What is ASX’s approach to the management of inflight transactions during cutover?

  • What approach is being taken to minimise the number of transactions that need to be migrated?

  • How will ASX identify the Primary Account holder for joint holdings?

  • Will ASX capture beneficial owners in the holder records or just the named party, such as the trustee? For example super funds, will ASX only capture the trustee company?
  • ASX stated that the new format will support up to four joint holders, what about those issuers whose constitution does not allow this?
  • Will Share registries be mandated to clean client records to ensure it meets the new standard? If no, this may be an issue with stock conversions.
  • ASX described that for overseas addressees with the exception of NZ addresses, the conversion will only populate Address Lines 1-3 in the new structure (i.e. Town/State/Postcode will be blank).Given the Account Modification and Report messages state that the Town is mandatory, how will this affect Account Registration Detail changes and also Account messages associated with Conversions, Transfers and SRN Enquiries?
  • As part of the migration can sponsoring participants provide the ASX a list of holder types, i.e. individual or company to ensure the correct holder type is recorded?
