eClaim Updates
1) Schema Update
From this release of eClaim the version of the schema that will be used will be the April 2020 version. This is backward compatible and so no change to councils. However, if you upgrade to this version and the back office does not yet support this, then that could cause an issue. So before upgrading to this version ensure that your back office is also at a version that supports the capture of IP address as highlighted below.
2) Capture of IP Address
The IP address the citizen was using at the point of the form's submission will be present in the XML request sent to the back office. This is provided as follows in the header section of the eClaim XML:
<Header>
<Advisor>
<InternalAdvisorId>IEG4

pdt:PersonGivenName> <pdt:PersonFamilyName>Administrator
