Run FFPP by replaying a production day’s files through batch; reconcile output deltas to the applicable RSECS and document explanations. Plan, execute, and document test enhancements alongside base changes—covering small improvements and client custom/homegrown modules to ensure compatibility and stability. Coordinate business review for Regulatory items and relevant Enhancements; capture approvals and traceability to test results and release notes.
