IBR Reference Materials

Last Updated: January 21, 2009

In January of 2009, the NYSIBR database was migrated from the DCJS mainframe to an Oracle environment. The migration provided an opportunity to improve upon the error messages associated with the error codes and the old transaction reports that were generated from the mainframe. DCJS has re-written the mainframe error messages and designed a new transaction report to provide results of the monthly submissions in a more user friendly format.

Listed below are several NYSIBR reference materials. Currently, the NYSIBR Desktop Reference Manual is still a primary reference for IBR submitting agencies. However, several new documents have been created to assist in the identification and resolution of IBR submissions errors.

If you have questions regarding IBR, please contact NYSIBR staff at infonysibr@dcjs.ny.gov or by calling DCJS at 518-457-5837 or 1-800-262-3257.
