1. SDAWG Update to COPS

2. SDAWG – Mini Market Large attendance Detailed discussion of settlements Possibly the base of the settlements training course Discussion?

3. Commercial Operations Data Extracts - Changes Settlements Calendar Dispute Extracts Load, Generation and Settlements and Billing Extracts\ DLF, TLF, UFE reports

4. Settlements Calendar Would be one record per operating day, settlement run. The invoice date and other requirements from Protocols would be published for each record. This is a change from today’s market. Today, each row shows all settlement information for that day. Would be updated daily

5. Dispute Extracts We put off discussion of the dispute extracts until the next SDAWG meeting, when this will be an agenda item.

6. Load, Billing, S&B Extracts Header records include: H – UID, RECORDER, CHANNEL, ORIGIN, STARTTIME (OP DAY), STOPTIME, UOM, SECONDS_PER_INTERVAL, DATA.ADDTIME/TIMESTAMP Details records include UID, INT_ENDING, INT001_VALUE, INT001_STATUS… XML format

7. Pros/Cons of XML PROS: Newer standards Flexible with multiple programs (XML Spy, MSXML from SP7) Statements and Invoices are both produced as XML Consistency with other file formats Metadata support Style sheet could ‘prettify’ the data set like Client Data Reports Can reference field name to value Possibility to eliminate need to join multiple records in DDL CONS: Increased file size MPs that lack expertise to use it (Office 2003, 2007 support) Not able to use/modify loading tools from today for csvs (or would have to have a tool to convert from XML to CSV)

8. NPRR 78 Suggested motion: COPS endorses and recommends NPRR 78 to PRS.
