To facilitate THREE carrying out an APN migration

During THREE’s APN Migration, there will be an outage of the MDMS system.

This will result in a delay in sending actual Half-Hourly interval data for Read Date 14th February 2023.

Initially on the early morning of the 15th Feb, 343MMs will be sent to Market containing estimated Half-Hourly interval data for the Read Date 14th February 2023.

Once the outage is complete, actual Half-Hourly interval data will be received by ESBN for the Read Date 14th February 2023, which will then be disseminated to Market via 343MMs on the afternoon of the 15th Feb.

In the absence of actual data for MCC12 sites, 345MMs will not be issued to Market  on the morning of the 15th Feb. Once the outage is complete, cumulative register readings will be received by ESBN for the Read Date 14th February 2023, which will then be disseminated to Market via 345MMs on the afternoon of the 15th Feb

Suppliers can continue to send Market Messages as normal.
