To maintain accurate values for Settlement, DNOs must make regular changes to the LLFC Indicator in ERDS. Until June 2023, the meteringPointEnergyFlow has been tied to this Data Item, which has sometimes resulted in changes to the energy direction. For example, going from Import to Export. Where errors have been identified, the DNO needs to be able to correct meteringPointEnergyFlow back to the correct value to ensure data accuracy. The current restriction, to only one change of Energy Direction against an RMP, can be overcome through by terminating the existing RMP and creating a new RMP with the correct Metering Point Energy Flow value. This has a detrimental impact on the Consumer and Settlement. It is inconvenient for the Consumer to be assigned a new MPAN and Settlement relies on an accurate history that will be lost when a new MPAN is assigned.

1. As a Consumer, I want any metering data issues to be resolved without the need for a new MPAN to be created, so that I am able to reference my current MPAN in any discussions with my Energy Supplier or other Market Participants.
2. As an ERDA, I want to be able to correct the Metering Point Energy Flow Data Item more than once, to remove the need for the termination of RMPs and the creation of new RMPs and to facilitate data accuracy. As an impacted Market Participant, I want to ensure good quality underlying data is available to support the transition to MHHS to avoid additional time and effort being spent fixing data quality issues during the migration period.
3. As an Energy Supplier, I want data issues associated with the Metering Point Energy Flow to be resolved without the need to create a new RMP, so that my Settlement accuracy and performance is not impacted As an Energy Supplier, I want data issues associated with the Metering Point Energy Flow to be resolved without the need to create a new RMP, so that discussions I have with my customers are not unnecessarily confused by a change in RMP reference.
