Description
Request from Supplier Agent either to record, delete or amend a Customer Direct Contract with that Supplier Agent, for a given MPAN
Notes
The use of the 'Remove' Event shall have the effect of both immediately ending any active Customer Direct Contract Flag the Supplier Agent may have in place for the MPAN. In order to Correct or Extend the Contract End Date associated with an existing Flag, an 'Add' event should be used and the correct/revised Contract End Date submitted. Shortened Contract End dates should always be accepted, extended dates will be subject to checking if another Supplier Agent has registered a separate Customer Direct Contract covering the same period. Customer Direct Marker can only be set for a maximum of three years - therefore Supplier Agents with rolling or so called Evergreen contracts will need to re-record these contracts for each three year period following the setting of the initial flag. Suppliers are the only parties who have visibility of the Supplier Agents who have active Customer Direct Contract Flags in place. Where Supplier Agents have had their requests to apply a Customer Direct Flag rejected they should liaise both the their customer and the relevant supplier in order to resolve any contention.
