Do we need to send an AIR Test File if we have previously filed our 1094/1095s electronically?

We currently are running the Archive process in Oracle to get the data for ACA processing. We are then running a custom script to format the data for the 1095-C forms. We save the script output as an Excel spreadsheet and import the spreadsheet into a 3rd party software to produce our XML files for transmission to the IRS and also to create the 1095-Cs to send to the employee.

Starting with the 2024 reporting year, we want to use Oracle for the whole process. My question is: since we already have been transmitting electronically to the IRS using our current TCC code (which we will continue to use), do we need to submit a test transmission through the AIR system because of using different software to create the XML files?
