This function retrieves data from the VET Government Submission Snapshot, and writes it out to the AVETMISS files. Exceptions are logged to the job run log.

Each file is a 'flat' file, consisting of a sequence of data records. All records consist of a set of fixed length fields and are terminated by two extra bytes containing a carriage return/line feed combination (ASCII codes 13 and 10).

Files will be written to the KEEP directory (as defined on the System Job Control table). Refer to AVETMISS: The Standard for VET Providers for exact detail about each of the files. This function will allow for state specific data to be appended to the end of the file.
