Current EFD | The corresponding Effective From Date that the Current Value for a data item in SMRS is in force. |
Current Value | In the context of this BSCP, the value in force in SMRS for the data items listed in Appendix 4.1 of this BSCP, exclusive of Effective From Dates. |
Data Owner | The Party (Supplier or LDSO), responsible for the provision and maintenance of an SMRS data item that can be subject to an RMA, as defined in Appendix 4.1 of this BSCP and the EMDS. |
Effective From Date | Used in the context of this BSCP as a generalisation of any of the data items of type Effective From Date/Effective From Settlement Date in Appendix 4.1. |
Effective From Settlement Date | See Appendix 4.1. |
Effective To Date | In the context of this BSCP, the date on which a data value ceases to be effective in SMRS, as it has been superseded by another data value, or is no longer required. |
Market Participant Id | As defined in the EMDS. |
Registration | Has the meaning given to that term in the REC. |
Registration Deactivation Request | Has the meaning given to that term in the REC. |
Registration Status | Has the meaning given to that term in the REC. |
Retrospective Error | An incorrect value recorded for one of the SMRS data items set out in Appendix 4.1 of this BSCP, where the Effective From Date of the corrected value is earlier than the Effective From Date held in SMRS. |
Retrospective Manual Amendment | The manual amendment of an incorrect value for one of the SMRS data items set out in Appendix 4.1 of this BSCP, where the date from which the correction is effective is earlier than the latest Effective From Date currently held for the data item in question. |
Secure Data Exchange Portal | Has the meaning given to that term in the REC. |
Selective Refresh | As defined in BSCP501. |
Supply Start Date | As defined in the EMDS. Also known as the Effective From Date {REGI}. |
It is supported by a Trading Disputes Committee (TDC) determination in accordance with BSCP11; or
The technical controls or validation procedures of the SMRS require the RMA to be effected for a date beyond the timescales for the Final Reconciliation Settlement Run (for example to enable contiguous data logic) in order to enable the ongoing integrity of the Metering System in question and any relevant Settlement Days.
In the case of Suppliers, this BSCP is designed for the correction of individual Registrations only (i.e. relating to resolution of error(s) associated with a particular Registration) and the forms supporting this BSCP are designed accordingly. Errors across multiple Registrations should be handled as a set of individual errors, unless otherwise agreed bi-laterally between the parties concerned. Suppliers are only responsible for their respective SMRS data items during their Registration and can only effect changes for this period.
The SMRS data items for which an LDSO is responsible may span multiple Supplier Registrations. Therefore, the LDSO may be required to make RMAs which are effective for more than one Registration period. In this case, the LDSO will ensure that it liaises with, and obtains agreement from, all affected Suppliers prior to implementing the change (in its capacity as SMRA).
Where a Supplier or LDSO requires an RMA, and that change will also have an effect on the other’s data, then both Data Owners should agree to the change, since it is an objective that data is corrected consistently. Suppliers and LDSOs shall use reasonable endeavours to resolve any disagreement, failing which the provisions of Section H7 of the Code shall apply.
Where an RMA has been implemented, the SMRA will inform all relevant DAs of the change using an ‘Instruction(s) to Non Half Hourly or Half Hourly Data Aggregator’ (D0209) data flow, which may be in the form of a Selective Refresh. Should an RMA cancel a DA’s appointment, then the use of a single Metering System refresh to the DA(s) to advise them of this is still an appropriate means of communication, unless otherwise determined by the SMRA.
Send a D0209 instruction to all affected DAs, which may be in the form of a Selective Refresh;
Advise the LDSO of the changes (internal communication); and
Advise future Suppliers of the changes.
The unique log number for the RMA;
The Supplier or LDSO Id (as appropriate to the data item that has been amended) and name and designation of the person who authorised the RMA;
The reference number specific to the RMA; and
The date the RMA was implemented.
REF | WHEN | ACTION | FROM | TO | INFORMATION REQUIRED | METHOD |
3.1.1 | As required. | Supplier requests RMA. | Supplier | LDSO | BSCP604/01 Part A form. See also section 2.6. | SDEP or other method, as agreed. |

3.2.3 | After 10 WD of 3.2.1 in the event of a failure to acknowledge the BSCP604/02 Part A form. | SMRA proceeds with RMA in the absence of an acknowledgement, providing that the RMA relates solely to LDSO owned data items, but should use reasonable endeavours to contact Supplier to confirm this. | SMRA |
|
| Internal process. |
3.2.4 | Within 10 WD of receipt of BSCP604/02 Part A form. | If the Supplier’s data in SMRS is also impacted by the RMA and the Supplier rejects the RMA, notify the LDSO.
