webOASIS. The service point translation
file and the service point translation exception file are posted on the OASIS
Migration site.
http://toinfo.oasis.mapp.org/oasisinfo/oasismigration.html

TSR Migration to the OATI webOASIS
The MAPP OASIS Node reservations were posted on the OATi webOASIS on
Monday, March 20. This was an
incremental update to the OATi webOASIS, which means transmission service
requests queued after March 20, 2006 13:10:46 CS will not be reflected on the
production OATi webOASIS. Reservations
not posted will be posted prior to implementation; validation is currently
performed to ensure service point translation was performed as expected.
OATi webOASIS web address
http://www.oatioasis.com/
Registration information is posted on the OATi webOASIS under the
Registration link in the upper left hand corner, if you have already registered
and have access to the OATi webOASIS you do not need to re-register.

NERC E-tags that list MAPP as the Transmission Provider
Based upon the feedback received on February 8th at the customer training
session, we plan to offer a specific period of time where the transmission
customer can submit NERC E-tags with the revised MAPP Schedule F PORs/PODs of
their TSR for tags active after March 28th at 10 AM. MAPP has registered the revised MAPP Schedule
F PORs/PODs in TSIN.
March 15, 2006
The current OASIS Migration information indicates that the current MAPP
OASIS node reservations would be posted as of yesterday, March 14, 2006. The TSRs have not been posted as scheduled on
the OATI webOASIS. The review and
corrections of service point translation to the existing reservation data set
has taken longer than expected. The
expected date to post the reservations will be late afternoon on Monday, March
20.

remaining tasks required to meet the February 28, 2006 implementation date.
The
Transition Guide will be updated, and additional information will be posted on

Preliminary Notification of MAPP
OASIS Node Migration and
Enhanced Transmission Service
Request Validation and Evaluation System
This is the first of multiple notices to be published
giving guidance to MAPP OASIS Node users, MAPP Schedule F and MAPP Member
Tariff Transmission Customers:
The MAPP OASIS node at web address, http://mapp.oasis.mapp.org/OASIS/NODE,
will be decommissioned, and all future transmission service requests under the
MAPP Schedule F OATT and MAPP Member OATTs shall be reserved on OATI’s webOASIS
at http://www.oatioasis.com/.
The MAPP OASIS Information at web address, http://toinfo.oasis.mapp.org/oasisinfo/,
will gradually decommissioned because all future information will be posted on
the MAPP OASIS on the OATI webOASIS.
·
The MAPP OASIS
migration and Transmission Service Request Validation and Evaluation System
transition date is scheduled to occur on Tuesday, February 28, 2006.
· Preliminary scheduled for February 9
and February 10, 2006, Transmission customers may log in to webOASIS and submit
transmission service requests in the demo OASIS environment. The enhanced Transmission Service Request
Validation and Evaluation System will provide results via the OASIS. This will allow the transmission customers to
gain exposure to the new systems.
· Any system variances will be
submitted to OATI for resolution.
· Additional information will be
provided at a later date.
Purpose
The OATI webTrans system will implement the new business
requirements included in the MAPPCOR-MISO Seams Operating Agreement, and
improve existing business processes such as:
· Automated evaluation of Firm
redirects, which will allow daily firm redirects
· The On/Off path evaluation
methodology for both MAPP Schedule F and MAPP Member OATTs. The Transmission Customer will no longer be
required link transmission service requests on OASIS, however the customer(s)
is required to have a complete tariff path.
· Web interfaces for flowgate and
transmission reservation impact information
· Additional AFC/ATC calculation
transparency
The Seams Operating Agreement defines the AFC coordination
protocols and implementation of reciprocally coordinated flowgates.
· Reference Section 9 of the MISO-MAPP
Tariff Administration Transition Guide.
· Transmission Customers should utilize
the OATI registration forms posted at http://www.oatioasis.com/. For additional support, contact OATI at
763-201-2020 or support@OATi.net
(Reference the MMTA project).
· You do not need to re-register if
you already have access to the OASIS site listed above.
· OATI webOASIS user training for

Please review Section 6 of the MISO-MAPP Tariff
Administration Transition Guide
MAPP Policies and Procedures
· The MAPP Policies and Procedures are
in the process of being updated. The
