1 3.0 Nominations This section provides a high level overview of the PNT (Path Non Threaded) module and how it impacts the creation of nominations. It also provides detailed steps used to enter, retrieve/change and copy nominations. It also provides tips on how to identify and correct nomination errors. 105

2 3.1 Path Non Threaded Model Three critical components of information define a Nomination within the system. These three components consist of: 1) a "Buy," 2) a "Path," and 3) a "Sell." The "Buy" identifies the location and upstream party. The upstream party can be another supplier, or the actual shipper (i.e., yourself). The "Path" identifies the transportation route and consists of the receipt and delivery points associated with the transaction. The transportation contract number is part of the "Path. Note that no "Path" is required for a Title Transfer transaction, as these transactions entail no physical movement of the gas. The "Sell" identifies the location and the downstream party. The downstream party can be another supplier, or the actual shipper (i.e., yourself). Fuel is assessed on transportation transactions, and is automatically calculated when the Update button is clicked. 106

3 3.2 How to Enter a Nomination 1 Click the plus sign (+) in the Tree View to expand Nominations. Click the plus sign (+) to expand the Nomination Options. 2 Double-click on Nomination Submission. 3 Click the picklist button (shown below) in the Svc Req/Svc Req Prop field. Or, enter the first few letters in the green Svc Req Name field and then press the Tab key on your keyboard to display a picklist. 107

4 4 A picklist will appear. Highlight the appropriate service requester. To select a different service requester, highlight the appropriate row in the grid by using your mouse. If a partial name was entered, the picklist will display all Service Requesters that begin with the partial name that was entered. Enter the partial Svc Req Name in the Value field and click Retrieve. 5 Select a Service Requester from the picklist. 6 Click the OK button. 108

5 7 After clicking OK button, the Nomination Submission screen is again visible. 8 Select the first gas day that the nomination will be submitted. Verify that the default end date is the date that the nomination will be submitted through, or change the date to the appropriate end date. 109

6 9 Enter the Gas Day dates by either typing the dates directly into the Gas Day and Default End Gas Day fields, or clicking the arrow to the right of the Gas Day and Default End Gas Day fields to display a calendar. Example (shown below): Use the calendar to enter a Nomination beginning date in the Gas Day field. After clicking on the date the nomination should begin, the calendar will disappear and the Beg Date will auto-populate. Use this same process for selecting the date the Nomination will end. 110

7 10 After selecting the dates, click the Retrieve button. After clicking Retrieve, all current nominations will be retrieved for the Gas Day selected and displayed in the Path section of the PNT Nominations Tab. If there are no nominations for the selected Gas Day, the path grid will be empty. 111

8 11 Enter the following required information on the PNT Nominations tab in the Path Grid. Click the applicable picklist button and make selections for the following fields: o Service requester contract number (Svc Req K) o Receipt location on the nomination (Rec Loc Prop) o Delivery location on the nomination (Del Loc Prop) TSP 100:There are two additional fields that are required in the Nomination Submission screen: Working Interest Percentage and PTR Quantity. 112

9 Enter the following required information on the PNT Nominations tab in the Path Grid. Enter the nominated receipt quantity (Rec Qty). After entering the Svc Req K, Rec Loc Prop, Del Loc Prop, and Nom Rec Qty information, the Fuel and Nom Del Qty fields will automatically be populated based on the applicable fuel rates. If the Nom Del Qty is entered first, the Fuel and Nom Rec Qty fields will auto-populate. 113

10 To complete a nomination in tabular form, click the Path Form button to access the NAESB Nom Submission screen. A tabular form is also available for the upstream (Up Form button) and downstream (Dn Form button). TSP 100: Nominations cannot be entered in tabular form in because there are no fields for Working Int % or PTR Qty. 114

11 12 Enter the following required information on the PNT Nominations tab. Select the TT (transaction type). This type defaults to Current Business but can be changed as needed. Select 06 as the TT for Storage Injection paths and 07 as the TT for Storage Withdrawal paths. In the Upstream grid, enter the Rec Qty field first. This auto-populates the Rec Loc field from the Path area above. Enter the Up Party by typing the name in the Up Name field and tabbing off or by selecting it from the pick list. 115

12 Enter the following required information on the PNT Nominations tab In the Downstream grid, enter the Del Qty field first. This autopopulates Del Loc field from the Path area above. Enter the Down Party by typing the name in the Down Name field and tabbing off or by selecting it from the pick list. The total fields for these two grids will populate as the records are entered into all 3 grid areas (Path, Upstream, and Downstream). 13 Verify that the receipt variance (Rec Var) and Delivery Variance (Del Var) are both 0 before proceeding. To save the nominations at any time so that you can continue working on them at another time, click the Save button to create an Activity Code. 116

13 Click Validate. This selection will validate the nomination and present any errors or warnings on the Error tab. Errors must be corrected before the nomination can be submitted. Refer to Line vs. Business Validations section below for additional information on validations. 14 Click Submit. This selection will validate and submit the nomination. Once any validation errors have been corrected and the nomination has been submitted, it can be confirmed. Line vs. Business Validations 1 Line validations are based on application rules (i.e. a late nomination, or an invalid path on a contract). LV = Line Valid Line Validation errors: LI = Line Invalid o Validation button presents any Line Validation errors o Must be corrected before any data will be accepted into the database Example: The nominated path is Line Invalid for the contract. Hover over red boxes to display error message 117

14 Click on the Errors tab to view detail 2 Business validations are based on business rules configured by the TSP (i.e. The nomination has exceeded the contract MDQ). BV = Business Valid BI = Business Invalid Business Validation errors: o Submit button presents any Business Validation errors o Should be corrected before submitting a nom Follow same steps to view Business Validations errors: Hover over red boxes to display error message or click Errors tab to view detail.
