Version /08/2008 Warnings Report Appendix 1 This is an example of how M Numbers appear within the Warnings Report as part of the AQ Review. Not all Warnings listed within this example

Version /08/2008 Warning Report Reasons  Reason Code and Message Text  MPQ Meter Point is owned by xoserve. AQ not calculated  MPQ Meter Point is not a part of Live Confirmation. AQ not calculated  MPQ AQ not calculated due to the application of backstop date  RCN Reconnection does not exist  MPQ Reconnection Effective date is in the relevant metered period. AQ not calculated  MPQ Meter Point not DM for whole of DM AQ Calculation Period. AQ not Calculated  GNT Gas Nomination Type does not exist  MRF Meter Reading Frequency does not exist  MPQ Calculated annual quantity is negative  MRR Meter read request does not exist  CPN Consumption starts before earliest possible start meter read date  CPN Consumption overlap. AQ not calculated  MRE AQ not calculated due to the absence of reads since the previous AQ calculation  MRE AQ not calculated due to the absence of reads since competition effective date  CPN Consumptions for Meter Point are not contiguous  CPN Negative consumption during metered period. AQ not calculated  CPN Consumption start read more than three years before Target Opening Date or less than six months before Target End date  LCV LDZ Calorific Value does not Exist  CPN Insufficient Consumption Data to Calculate AQ (New MPRN)  CPN Consumption gap. AQ not calculated  CPN Consumption Start Date not equal to start Meter Reading date  SPO Supply Point History not contiguous over whole of relevant metered period  MPC Meter Point Configuration not found G0 to 2.
