Using FIS

The FIS software pack can be downloaded from the Data Service website. When this software has been installed, you can import the output file you have produced in ebs to check for any validation errors you may have with your data and then import this back into ebs to be used in the error surfer functionality.

To open the FIS, double-click on the FIS icon on the desktop.
