dennis ,
i do not have anything documented in any detail yet . lindyis out on vacation & i lknow i will be reviewing the requirments with her . i will be working on the flow direction requirements over the next 2 to 3 maybe 4 weeks . after discussing with hasan , we plan to implement in the december / january time frame so that it moves in with tw ' s new contract system . this flow direction project was part of the tw 2001 system enhancement budget dollars . i know that at the cms status update meeting last week lisa noted these two items for tw . also noted was a comment about needing the details on the winthin and outside the path . the within and outside the path is already coded in the current cbs system and ple system . you should be able to pull from the current system the process . i know it will need to merge into the new system . the basic concept is as follows :
all points on tw are tied to a marketing lateral code .
this code is stored in ple for each point on tw
a batch process is set up in cbs that is a stored procedure that runs everyday at 12 : 00 noon to calculate the inside / outside the paths on all firm contracts . ( release , fts 3 , ftsl , lft , efbh ) . this process finds the marketing lateral for the primary receipt and primary delivery pionts & identifies all possible laterals between the primary receipt to primary delivery that can be valid alternate points inside the path and stores those to be used in the allocation process . it maps it out for each firm contract . this process is uses the valid marketing laterals to build the inside alternate paths . any contract whose alternate receipt or alternate delvery point that is not in the valid available marketing lateral is an outside the path transaction . tms uses this process in the allocations on tw .
with revalidation the tms system checks for contracts that change primary receipt points and delivery points in the evening , nongrid , i / dl , and i / d 2 cycles . however the stored procedure batch job is a maunal process , the contract team would submit this batch job on demand so that it can identify the valid marketing laterals for that specific contract that was changed . i would like to see this automated with the new cms system . each time a firm contract is changed for a gas day after the timely cycle is run , this batch job or stored procedure should automaticly rum again for that contract that was changed .
thanks ramona
