Fast track installation
FCA has granted CTI Communications a Fast Track migration process. CTI Communications will guide the migration process with a series of predefined steps to expedite the start up with the new protocol EMTS.

FCA defines the file structure for each supplier and during the migration process FastSync is configured to operationalize it. Once configured, there is only one Sending directory and the files will be routed based on the configured rules and content to the expected destination in the FCA Server.
Unattended operation
FastSync can be configured to automatically transmit and receive files every “x” minutes, “x” days.
Passwordless access to FCA servers
The computer where FastSync runs will have passwordless access to the FCA server.

About
CTI Communications (CTI)
CTI has been in the business of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) within the Automotive Industry since 1985. First with the Ford Motor Company, then with Chrysler Corporation, followed by General Motors and Toyota Corporation. Finally, many other Automotive OEMs, along with the many large Retail and Government operations.
CTI and its dealer network captured approximately 80% of the entire automotive market alone. This feat was not just because of superior EDI software and related hardware, but because of its most popular and secure data File Transfer Communication software.

Users can also schedule transmissions to occur automatically, at whatever intervals required.
AS2 protocol (especially for Fiat-Chrysler's new EMTS interface -

AS2 (Applicability Statement 2 protocol) helps users connect, deliver, validate and reply to data that trading partners move securely through the Internet.
Latest news for all FIAT-CHRYSLER suppliers
2019 was the start of the supplier migration to the new IBM EMTS communications system announced in 2018 for handling EDI and Non-EDI file transmissions. Many suppliers have already taken advantage of this early migration.
Now, beginning January 13, 2020, the EMTS migration will startup for 2020. And, this includes both production and non-production suppliers for handling both EDI and Non-EDI transmissions.
CTI Communications urges you to call and schedule your company’s slot in the 2020 migration. The earlier the better. The new EMTS passwordless program is more time consuming than earlier, pre-EMTS system migrations.
