  • Confirm and demonstrate that the AESWebLink Logo and introductory commentary are installed and activated within their application as required.
  • Confirm that no data that is incompatible to AES will be transferred.
  • Successfully generate a series of EEI transmissions into AESWebLink with the following characteristics:
    • An unsuccessful login to AESDirect.
    • An interface session that passes a partial transmission to AESWebLink that results in a successful submission to AES.
    • An interface session that passes a Full (All information captured by the third party application) transmission to AESWebLink that results in a successful submission to AES.
