Sec. 5. (a) The property tax management system must provide for data to be imported and stored from files organized according to:

1. (1) the property tax file format requirements found in 50 IAC 26-20; and
2. (2) the property tax input-output file format requirements found in 50 IAC 26-21.

(b) The property tax management system must provide for batch updates from external files organized as flat ASCII files containing the same fields (or any subset thereof) as those in the database. For example, it must be possible for the database to be updated in batch mode from a reassessment contractor's files. As used in this section, "update" means adding new records to a database or modifying or deleting existing records, or both. Batch update programs shall provide the following features:

1. (1) Perform the same edit checks as those performed for online updates.
2. (2) Not update the database if an error is encountered, but shall identify the record in error and indicate the type of error until the record is corrected. Provide for a method of correcting errors online and releasing corrected records to the database.
3. (3) Provide error reports for each update run, showing the contents of each record found to be in error.
4. (4) Provide a means of reversing a batch update run to restore the database to its condition immediately before the batch update.
