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.
