Since raising the Category 3 change, feedback has been received from Parties related to two minor errors that need to be corrected. The following amendments will therefore be made to the PARC prior to implementation: ***Update to the 'Required/Optional' field for items 660-770 following the addition of a ‘Conditional Mandatory’ option, accounting for fields that are only mandatory if the associated group is present. ***Update to the Group noted against field ‘Meter Mechanism Code’ for item 670, from Group ‘Meter Point’ to ‘Meter’, and field ‘Meter Type Code’ for item 680, from Group ‘Asset’ to ‘Meter’. *****************This Category 3 Change Proposal has been raised to implement updates to the PARC. The focus of these updates is on improvements to usability, some clarifications and minor amendments and also the removal of some data items. There has been one addition to the PARC, which has been made following engagement with Gas Network Distributors (GDNs). **************************Usability updates: - Updated data submission guidance on 'Cover' tab - Column added to 'Report Catalogue' tab detailing the date of which each item is first required to be submitted - Column 'Domestic / Non-Domestic Only?' removed from the 'Report Catalogue' tab and replaced by individual columns 'Domestic', 'Micro-Business' and 'Commercial' - Collation of the Report Catalogue with the document 'PARC Other Data Collection Details', which provided further detail on the data items received from ElectraLink and Xoserve. This has resulted in the addition of three new tabs: 'Other Data Collection - Cover', 'ElectraLink Data Items' and 'Xoserve Data Items'. ************************Clarifications and minor amendments, including: - Update to the columns required within tabs '610'-'640' following further discussion with PPMIPs, inclusion of a header block - Clarification to the RGMA group each field specified within each of tabs '660-770' - Removal of field 'Meter Mechanism Code' from tab 700 (Content provided within RGMA flow - ORDET) - Addition of field 'Last Vend Date' to data specification on tab '850' - Splitting of the PPMIP Unallicated Transaction reports into electricity and gas items, resuling in the new line #1315 (PPMIP Unallocated Transaction Report - Electricity) - Update to 'Pre-Existing' and 'Domestic/Non-domestic Only' for #1330 (SMIS Survey Data); addition of guidance on templates to be used - Addition of tab '1340 - Commercial', detailing the submission guidance for the Commercial version of #1340 - Update 'Pre-Existing' and 'Prepayment Meters Only' for #1380 (SMETS1 Monthly Transaction Data), and addition of guidance to where the templates can be downloaded from the Portal - Update to 'Description' of #1430 (Gaining Supplier Switching Data) within the 'Report Catalogue' tab; comment added to provide clearer guidance on field 'Read Type Used' within tab '1430' ******************** Addition and removal of data items, including: - Removal of #80 (Energy Ombudsman Complaints Data) - Addition of new item #91 GDN Complaints Data, covering the complaints data submission requirements for Gas Distribution Networks (replacing item #90 for Gas Distribution Networks) - Removal of #650 (Content provided within PP10 - Change of Tariff Proforma) following further discussion with PPMIPs - Removal of #860 (Smart Meter Technical Detail (MTD) Report) - Removal of #1250 (PPMIP Change of Tariff Global Report) following further discussion with PPMIPs - Rename of data #1450 (AMICOP Scheme Auditor Reports) and removal of #1470 (MAMCOP Scheme Auditor Reports) as both are now covered under '1450 MCoP Scheme Auditor Reports'
