In order to update Parabilis with new finance codes, the system will be taken offline between the end of play on Tuesday 23rd April and Monday 29th April.

You will be unable to create any new baskets on Parabilis after 5pm on Tuesday 23rd April. The system will be available again for new baskets to be raised from Monday 29th April, and baskets should then be raised using new finance codes (see link below). Any baskets raised using old codes will be rejected.
