The Source/Background Access (SOASBGA) page is used to create institution-specific information that includes host name, remote directory, user name, and password information for the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) location for the XML transcript transmission.
The page also includes an indicator that controls whether the transcript transmission will use the specific information on SOASBGA or the default FTP location information on SHACTRL.

| Host Name | Host name to which the FTP process can connect to transmit the XML transcript, such as ediserver.reg.utexas.edu. |
| Remote Directory | Remote directory on the host to which the FTP process can connect to transmit the XML transcript, such as /usr/local/tran/ftp/testftp. |
| Username | Username of the host who is exporting the XML transcript to the remote system. |
| Password | Password of the host who is exporting the XML transcript to the remote system. The password is encrypted when entered and is not accessible without any unencryption. |
| Use Default Location | Check box used to indicate whether or not to use the default FTP location defined on SHACTRL for this institution. If the Use Default (FTP) Location check box is unchecked (set to N), then the FTP information in this page will be used for XML transcript transmissions. If no information is entered in SOASBGA, or if the Use Default (FTP) Location check box is checked (set to Y), then the FTP information on SHACTRL will be used to transmit the transcript file. |
