Description Of Change

US West has set a 2000 circuit limitation per Billing Account Number (BAN), for each US West region. This restriction places the burden on MCI Worldcom to develop functionality within it’s facility based systems, in order to maintain and manage multiple BAN’s per end user account for unbundled loops. MCIWORLDCOMs change request will impact unbundled loop orders.

CenturyLink Response

Option 1: Medium T-Shirt Size, Qwest could provide an email message to the Co-Provider when a BAN is close to reaching the 2000 circuit limitation. The message would be emailed to the same address as the Completion Loss Reports.

Option 2: Large T-Shirt Size, Qwest could provide an electronic transaction to the Co-Provider when a customer's BAN is close to reaching the 2000 circuit limitation.

2/11/02 - The 10K table holds a record of updates (basically service order activity) against an account. When you get more than 2K TNs on a BAN, the likelyhood of having >10K activities against the account go up. The 2K is not a hard limit, it is just a cautious limit. The table can not be expanded so Qwest will provide Option 1 as the solution to this request. Qwest will however provide the CLECs with an e-mail notification when the 2000 TN limit is close to being reached.
