WHERE Can You Submit BSS?

• BSS can be submitted via:

– SPP Portal (Traditional Web Application) – API Service (Application Programming Interface)

• MPs are responsible for granting individual access to their end

users via Local Security Administrator (LSA) certificate for the Portal.

• Prerequisites to submit BSS:

– Must acquire X.509 Digital Certificate public key from recognized, trusted Certificate Authority (CA). – Must be fully registered within the SPP Market.

12

WHEN Can You Submit BSS?

• MPs may submit BSS profile quantities

90 days in advance or up to four (4) days (Unless Sat/Sun) following applicable OD for Initial Settlement.

• New submittals and revisions may be

submitted up to 44 days (Unless Sat/Sun) following the applicable OD for Final Settlement.

• Submittals after OD+44 (or Final

Window Closes) will be treated as a resettlement and will require a dispute to be filed in the RMS system.

13

OD Assume OD on 1st of previous month and 31 days in that month.

How does the BSS windows work?

• Initial Window – If a BSS Profile is submitted and modifications
• ccur for a given OD, the BSS Profile will be updated and status set

to PENDING. Auto approval only applies to first Profile.

• Initial Window Close- If a BSS Profile is submitted and CONFIRMED

prior to the close of the Initial window for that OD, it will be included on the Initial Reports and the status for the BSS Profile will be changed to PROCESSED. At that point, the record will no longer be upgraded.

• Between Initial/Close Window - Any BSS Profile changes will

process the same as the Initial Window.

• Final Window Close – If CONFIRMED record exists for that OD, will

automatically get pulled in and updated for Final.

14

Multiple Records

• You can have multiple BSS Contract Profiles for the same Intervals.

The Newest will be listed last.

• You can have multiple PROCESSED records.
• An Enhancement Ticket has been opened requesting

Submitted/Update Date and Status flags to show if PROCESSED for Initial or for Final.

Q/A Page

• Is there a limit on how long you can have a BSS Contract last? The current limit is a BSS

contract can be setup to 12/31/2050 for a specific date or setup to not expire (12/31/2999). But we recommend keeping them to one year increments for review, if you feel they can be longer, then that would be ok. Once a contract has had a profile submitted for an Operating Day, you cannot change values on the contract. If a value needs to change, you will need to terminate the existing BSS Contract and create a new one.

• What is the maximum length of a BSS Contract Name? 40 Characters
• Can you use special characters in the BSS Header Name? You can use characters (a-z, A-Z,

numbers (0-9), underscore (_), and hyphens(-). All other special characters are not allowed, including blank spaces. (Valid characters are listed in the error message if you try to submit something incorrect).

• Is the Buyer, Seller, and Settlement Location case sensitive? No
• When will IS members be allowed to start submitting BSS in PROD? Being able to submit

BSS’s in PROD is based on the Commercial Model being released to Prod. This is typically done 7 days prior to going live, but for IS, the expected push will be 9/7/2015 for a 10/1/2015 go live date. So for IS members, they could start submitting BSS’s in Prod on 9/7/2015 for 10/1/2015 – 12/7/2015 operating days (+90 days before OD)
