Sec. 6
(a) If initial certification of a property tax management system is within twenty-four (24) months before July 1, 2015, or within twenty-four (24) months before every fifth year after July 1, 2015, recertification of that system is not required.
(b) Property tax management systems not subject to subsection (a) that have been initially certified must be recertified within the twenty-four (24) month period before July 1, 2015, and within the twenty-four (24) month period before every fifth year after July 1, 2015. If any major change is made to a certified system at any other time, the system shall be considered a new system subject to the same certification requirements of sections 2, 3, and 4 of this rule. As used in this section, "major change" has the meaning set forth in 50 IAC 26-17-1. In the event that the major change pertains exclusively to a county's conversion of its software system, the system will be subject to the same certification requirements of just section 4 of this rule.
(c) Property tax management system installations not subject to subsection (a) that have been initially certified must be locally recertified within the twenty-four (24) month period before July 1, 2015, and within the twenty-four (24) month period before every fifth year after July 1, 2015.
(d) If any other change is made to a certified system, the vendor must submit revised copies of documentation, revised source code, and other materials to the following:
(e) The department shall determine in writing whether a specific change constitutes a major change.
(f) The department may require full or incremental recertification by agreement between the department and the legislative services agency whenever a major change to the rule or test scenarios occurs.
