Batch Filing

About XML/CSV Batch Filing of Transaction Data

FSLSO offers batch filing of transaction data for surplus lines agents, insurers, and large volume independently procured coverage (IPC) filers using one of several eXtensible Markup Language (XML) or comma-separated value (CSV) formats.

The user should register directly in SLIP+ to access all documentation, help guides, and sample files. The batch filing permission is tied to the SLIP+  account. No additional credentials are required to submit a batch file. Additionally, web service users will also need to use valid SLIP+ user credentials to authenticate. We offer in-application onboarding/testing for new batch filers, an XML/XSD schema validation tool, and a CSV format batch filing option.

Methods of Submission

Batch files may be submitted through a file upload in SLIP+ or an API (XML only) submission. The standard way to automate batch submissions is to configure your existing agency management system (AMS) to export the policy data as XML or CSV so it can be uploaded manually as a single file. You can take automation further by using API submission for complete integration of XML files.
