Events

9.1 Opting Process

Opting for an event is a fairly simple process. When you receive your event offer window open notifications and have logged into the DRMS the corresponding events can be found in the event screen in the top left-hand corner of the dashboard. By clicking on said event you will be able to identify the date and time of the event as well as the requested kW’s and offered dollar per MWh value. You have the option to either opt in (if you want to participate) or opt out (if you don’t want to participate). Additionally, if you do choose to opt into the event you have the ability to adjust the requested kW’s and offered dollar per MWh value downwards to best suit your capabilities in different circumstances.

9.2 Event Status’s

When scrolling through the full events screen of the DRMS you will be able to see the events transition between the different event status’s that can occur. The standard event status’s progression that you will see an event progress through are:

Standard Status Progression
Offer Window Open	Published, offers can be made
Offer Window Closed	Published, offers can no longer be made
Scheduled	Event has been scheduled - participants are notified whether or not they have been selected to participate
Active	Event is in an active state - participants should have shed load at this stage
Completed	Event is finished - settlement can begin
Meter Data Required	Event is finished, meter data is required to settle
Meter Data Submitted	Event is finished, and meter data required for settlement has been detected
Payment Payment	A payment has been generated for the event
Payment Complete	An invoice has been uploaded for the payment

There are three other status’s that an event can be in under certain circumstances. The status’s and the descriptions are in the table below:

Additional Event Status’s
Declined	A declined status will occur if your organisation either opts out or doesn’t opt when your organisations registration is called for an event. A declined status is a final status and will not progress further.
Withdrawn	A withdrawn status will occur if it is identified that your organisation opted into an event but did not respond at the time of the event (did not participate). If this is the case that event will be withdrawn before reaching the settlement stage. A withdrawn status is a final status and will not progress further.
Ineligible	An ineligible status will occur if your organisation is called for two simultaneous events and you opt into both. One event will be processed into a scheduled status and the other to an ineligible status. An ineligible status is a final status and will not progress further.
