Viewing connectivity recommendations on a table

The Location Awareness - Discrepancy Report page's Connectivity Recommendations table provides a list of service points and supporting information during the selected date range where the analysis results do not match the parent transformer, the phase, or both from the utility records. The utility records were provided by the DEH file import.

Click Filter () and select the checkboxes to display that data in the panel. Clear the checkboxes to hide that data in the panel.

  • Auto-update Yes. Recommendations that meet automatic update criteria and Actions that were automatically set to Accept.

  • Auto-update No. Recommendations that do not meet automatic update criteria.

  • Rejected. Recommendations that were rejected by a user.

  • Accepted. Recommendations that were accepted by a user or that were accepted automatically based on Automatic Update Criteria.

  • Pending. Recommendations that are waiting for user action.

  • Resolved. The latest DEH import no longer has a discrepancy for this service point.

  • Suppress. Recommendations that were temporarily suppressed by a user.

  • Ignore. Recommendations that were permanently ignored by a user.

Connectivity Recommendations table columns

Tip: Utilities must provide Master Data Import (MDI) and Distribution Equipment Hierarchy (DEH) data to populate some fields.

  • Service Point ID. The unique identification number for the service point.

  • Type. Indicates the type of discrepancy.

    • T. A transformer discrepancy occurs when the application determines that the service point is connected to a different transformer than the one provided by the DEH file.

    • P. A phase discrepancy occurs when the application determines the service point is connected to a different phase than the one provided by the DEH file.

    • T/P. A service point with both transformer and phase discrepancies.

  • Discover Date. The date the discrepancy was reported.

  • Auto Update. The value in this column indicates that the Action for the discrepancy was automatically updated to Accepted by the Location Awareness application based on the enabled Admin settings. When Enable automatic updates to transformer/service point connections is selected in the Admin Portal > Application Settings > Location Awareness, the discrepancy will be set to Accepted without user input if the criteria is met.

  • Recommended Txfmr ID. The unique identification number for the recommended parent transformer at this service point.

  • GIS Txfmr ID. The unique identification number for the parent transformer currently assigned from the utility's DEH file.

  • Phase Reference. If this is set to Yes, this service point is assigned reference phase information and requires further investigation. If this is set to No, reference phase information is not assigned to this service point.

  • Action. The action to be taken on the service point.

    • Pending awaiting input from the user on the action to take.

    • Resolved. The latest DEH import no longer has a discrepancy for this service point. The discrepancy can be automatically resolved by either of the following ways:

      • A DEH file import that updates the parent transformer, so the discrepancy no longer exists.

      • A connectivity change has moved the meter, so there is no longer a discrepancy with the DEH file.

    • Accepted indicates that the change must be made to the utility system of record to eliminate the discrepancy after a subsequent DEH file import.

    • Rejected indicates a change must not be made to the utility system of record. See Suppress/Ignore. later in this list.

  • Action Date. The date an action was taken.

  • Export Date. The date the action was exported.

  • Suppress/Ignore.

    • Suppress indicates the user wants time to review the discrepancy and may hide the row by filter selections to simplify the view.

    • Ignore indicates the user disagrees with the analysis results and does not plan to update the system of record.

  • End Suppress. When set to Suppress, the user enters a date when the suppression will end and the discrepancy returns to the Pending state.

  • Current Phase. The electrical phase currently assigned by the utility's DEH file. For OpenWay Riva CENTRON Singlephase Electricity Meter HW 4.0 devices, this column displays N/A if it cannot be inferred.

  • Recommended Phase. The suggested electrical phase determined by analysis. For OpenWay Riva CENTRON Singlephase Electricity Meter HW 4.0 devices, this column displays N/A if it cannot be inferred by HW 4.1 meters on the same transformer.
