The Ohio SOAP agents consist of two independent components.
- SOAP USAS Agent
- SOAP USPS Agent
USAS and USPS are accounting and payroll services developed by Ohio; State Software Development Team (SSDT). The Ohio SOAP SIF agents adapt these two SOAP web services into SIF compatible data.
The SOAP agents connect to a Zone Integration Server (ZIS) to service requests for accounting and payroll data. When a request for this data is received, the associated SOAP service is contacted, and the resulting data is translated into SIF.
