Implementation of New D-Trade Software Postponed
The DDTC's Director of Defense Trade Control Licensing announced on Friday that the implementation of the new version of the D-Trade software has been "postponed until further notice." As in previous notices, this notice states that applications submitted via D-Trade between January 8 and 10, 2007 must be resubmitted. The complete message is reprinted below:
We are still awaiting receipt of the new D-Trade software. Our goal was to begin production testing by 20 January; however, that is now postponed until further notice. The previous version of D-Trade is fully functional, so applicants should continue to submit DSP-5s, -61s and -73s as new applications.
If you submitted a D-Trade license application between January 8 and 10, you MUST resubmit the application beginning with “XXX” in the Transaction ID block. For example, an application for OIF/OEF should be identified as follows: “XXXOIF/OEF (followed by your unique Transaction ID). The only exception is if you submitted the “downloadable” paper application between January 8 and 10 (for these cases, resubmission is not necessary).
If you have received an issued license via D-Trade between January 8 and 10, send an e-mail to slyghpc@state.gov identifying the license number, as well as the company name, company contact, and date received. Do NOT resubmit cases for which a license was received.
We are working diligently with the vendor to correct the internal problems caused by the rollback to the previous software and regret the length of time taken to resolve the software problems.
Thanks for your continued patience.
