Update on progress A number of defects have been deployed but unfortunately this has not reduced the number
of issues encountered Some defects have not fully resolved an issue or we have uncovered new scenarios Other defects identified as impacting ASP/AML files
New Scenarios Class 3 – Replacement reads – re rec forward not completed – excluded Incorrect netting off of reversal charges in supporting information (presentation only) Issue with one day rec volume calculation Energy calculation issues
3 Phase Validation (CR307) The validation will not correct the mismatches, but it will speed up the validation process and allow the ASP correction files to be issued in a more timely manner. Currently in final assurance stages, implementation date to be confirmed

Next steps We plan to continue to exclude charges that have calculated incorrectly We will continue to update the invoice validation process in line with new
scenarios and issues We will fully deploy change 307 and utilise this to more quickly identify
mismatches and produce correction files There will be a Amendment Invoice ASP & AML files – The way forward
workshop on Thursday 12th April. To discuss the requirements of both files and to collaboratively explore potential solution
options with input from your organisation. The workshop is aimed at both technical and BAU parties who are familiar with the files
and the processes.
