We need the following codes:
- Person ID/Management & Control Person ID (This is a 10 digit number and normally starts with '01' e.g., 0127492083)
- CCS Provider ID (Your CCS Provider ID will have 9 numbers starting with a '1', and will end with a letter. E.g., 190028378T). This is distinct from your CCS Service ID.
- PRODA RA Organisation/Org ID (Your Org ID (Organisation ID) is 10 digits long, and only contains numbers. E.g., 3639204739).
- Device name (new services with Office need to set up a new device name in PRODA. E.g., 'Device1Childcarename').
- One time activation code for device (this needs to have been generated for the new device name, e.g., 6oYIX0KQI4).
30 days prior to your B2B device expiring, the above message will appear within the CCS Submissions screen and Government Enrolments screen through Office. You can refresh prior to the expiry date. To extend your device:

This will automatically feed the new expiry date through to Xplor Office. Note: the new expiry date may take up to 48hours to update in Office.
Once updated, you will be able to view this in Office by navigating to Child Care Subsidy < B2B Device Registrations < under B2B Device/ Management & Control Personnel < Device Expiry.
