SCE's Implementation Guide--814 Version 4010 Upgrade and DASR Bus iness Process Updates

> Attached below is Southern California Edison's (SCE's) "Implementation
> Guide EDI 
> Transaction Set 814 Version 4010 Upgrade and DASR Business Process
> Updates." The 
> guide has been prepared to assist Energy Service Providers (ESPs) in
> understanding the new 
> functionality, testing in both comma separated value (CSV) and electronic
> data interchange 
> (EDI) formats, as well as other pertinent information. 
> 
>  <<SCE Implementation Guide>> 
> 
> SCE will also make available implementation schedules for EDI Transaction
> Sets 810 and 867.  These schedules are forthcoming.
> 
> Conversion of EDI Transaction Set 814 from version 3070 to version 4010 is
> scheduled for implementation on or about September 18, 1999.  At the same
> time, new business process functionality will be introduced.  The new
> business processes that will be rolled out as part of the EDI version
> upgrade are not supported in EDI version 3070.  Therefore, only EDI
> version 4010 will be available to SCE's EDI trading partners after
> September 18, 1999.  DASRs submitted in EDI version 3070 will be rejected.

> 
> This Communication/Implementation Guide has been distributed to all ESPs
> through the CPUC exploder lists, as well as to the Electronic Coordination
> Communicator's (ECC's) distribution list.  The file is in zipped format.
> 
> The following points are stressed:
> 1) Following SCE's cutover to version 4010, there will be no rollback
> options to version 3070.  Only version 4010 transactions will be accepted.
> All outbound responses from SCE will be version 4010.
> 2) If ESPs have not indicated otherwise by July 15th, the implementation
> cannot be halted.
> 3) Specifications for the 814 and new DASR functionality are frozen.  Any
> changes or modifications will be addressed in a later development process.
> 4) Both CSV and EDI DASR response messages transmitted following the
> September implementation date will include the new business functionality.
> 
> 5) Due to the increased number of required DASR fields, ESPs could
> anticipate an increase in rejected DASRs due to the new validation
> changes.
