• Mass Assignment changes need to made before the DMV Upload occurs each month to apply to vehicle abstracts for that month. If you make changes after the DMV Upload, these changes will not go into effect until the following month.

• Ex: For Mass Assignment rules to apply for vehicle record abstracts on April 1, 2013 you will need to make these changes prior to March 30, 2013.

• If you make changes after March 30, 2013, these will not take effect until April 29, 2013
