Good progress on MISMO standards

We had a third committee call today on the MISMO Rent Roll and Operating Statement Standards Committee. We have had 15-20 people on all the calls. The first two focused on the rent roll; this one focused on operating statements. We are making good progress and have basically finished up the rent roll and operating statement header.

Operating statement detail (the NOI categories / chart of accounts) is still being debated. The issue is how much structure do we put in the XML re: assigning detailed NOI categories to roll up reporting categories and property type. We have two more calls scheduled (July 23 and August 6) to hash out the structure. We are still planning on getting the MISMO XML schema ready for approval by September.

The question is: Will anyone use it?
