Bill,
 
Not sure if this is impacting us now, but I'm sure it will in the future!  Currently only the LCA has the adjust function capability, and only until 1.7 implementation will the PSE's have the capability to Adjust.  Until then, I believe we need the LCA's to co-operate with the PSE's, otherwise this will create unwanted workload to your group and others alike. Please give me some feedback.  Not sure if you've been added to the discussion email list.

Subject: Adjust Function




PacifiCorp Real-Time has recently been requested several times by PSE's to use their "Adjust" function for changing schedules.  This has prompted them to ask for a clarification on the Adjust function "rules".  It is Real-Times belief that the Adjust function is for Control Area use and only for Reliability/Curtailment issues.  If Merchants/PSE's want to change a schedule on an existing tag it should be done through the Termination/replaced functions at their control and not ask C/A's to use their Adjust function.  I have found documentation that tells who has control of the Adjust function and how it can be used but cannot find any documentation that specifically prohibits or limits it's use to C/A and/or their curtailment issues.  Does anybody have any help here??  The main issue is, R/T does not have time to perform adjust functions for other entities merely at their request.   We can understand doing it when the tag originator has lost control and is unable to terminate a tag but not on a routine basis.
