Creation of interface file from VOIS Meso

Information on election data processing is available from KommWis support.

VOIS Meso interface file - format and transfer

Since the selection file generated via VOIS must always have the same structural layout and format for further processing in the context of printing and enveloping, you must always select the option "Print data without separate control file (WB-A)" as the export format in VOIS. Only in this format can we process the selection data you have prepared.

Please enter the following storage location in VOIS under "Export directory" and then inform us by email (wahlenkdz.mainzde) that you have stored your prepared election data. Please enter your three-digit MBOM number (registration authority classification code) in place of "xxx":
/IMPORT/vois_schnittstellen_kommunen/MXXX_vois/WahlWBK

The election file must be provided by 12:00 noon on the specified processing day at the latest.
