Better understanding how Market (REPS and ERCOT) should handle DEV request by TDSP, what the acceptable time frame is before the actual ESI creation date is and billing of the customer
Next Step:
• It was determined at TDTMS that the underlying issue was related to the TDSP initiating electric service at a premise prior to the ESI ID creation transaction being sent to ERCOT. • Texas SET reviewed the language in Nodal Protocol Section 15.4.1.4, New Electric Service Identifier Creation and updated that language to require a TDSP to receive an accept transaction from ERCOT for the ESI ID Create transaction prior to initiating electric service at a premise. • An NPRR will be created that will be reviewed and comments provided at the April Texas SET meeting.

The DEV process to backdate an ESI ID effective date works as intended. This scenario was isolated into one TDSP territory that was due to a system validation issue. Further discussion related to the DEV issue should continue at Texas Data Transport and MarkeTrak Systems Working group (TDTMS).

Description:
DEV Process being used to back-date an ESI creation date and MVI start date for service where ESI was not created until months later but service was worked on MVI safety-net (SN). 867_03s and 810_02s were sent for each billing period. Since ESI did not exist and each MVI was rejected TXUE does not show to be Rep of Record so customer is unable to be billed.
Reason:
After MVI effectuates what is allowable to be billed to customer if Safety Net worked in October and ESI is not created until January?
