PLEASE DISTRIBUTE THIS MESSAGE TO ALL DISTRICT STAFF WORKING IN WSLS or ISES

NEW SERVER FOR WSLS AND ISES

DPI will be moving the WSLS and ISES on a new server later this week. To accomplish this, ISES and WSLS will be closed from Thursday, November 17, at 5 pm through sometime early next week. Any batch processing (e.g. validations or file uploads) will continue during this closed period until processing is complete. We will notify districts via mass email when WSLS and ISES are reopened next week. When that happens, both WSLS and ISES will again be open 24 X 7.

INITIAL SUBMISSION PERIOD EXTENDED

The ISES initial submission period has been extended until early January 2006. The final lock down has been extended until late January 2006. The ISES Important Dates page has been updated. http://lbstat.dpi.wi.gov/lbstat_isesdates
