Correction appears in red text below.

Qwest reminds all CLECs of the requirement to update their user profile by COB Friday, December 5th 2003 with the Wholesale Systems Help Desk prior to the December 8th deployment of IMA 14.0 Release for certain candidates. CLECs may do so by contacting the Wholesale Systems Help Desk at 1-888-796-9102.

For all IMA GUI CLECs, the updated profile will become effective with the release of IMA 14.0; IMA EDI CLECs will have their updated profile become effective with their corresponding migration to IMA EDI Release 14.0, or later EDI releases if the CLEC does not migrate to IMA EDI 14.0.

Candidates affected are: - Support IMA EDI Status Updates via IMA GUI - Offer Choice for Receiving Non-Fatal Errors - Change to Confirmation Completion Report for FBDL Responses - Line Loss Notification

CLECs may begin contacting the Wholesale Systems Help Desk effective Tuesday, November 25th.

Questions may be directed to itcomm@qwest.com.

Sincerely, Qwest

September 19, 2003 IMA 14.0 High-Level Walk-thru Meeting Minutes Excerpt:

Functionality Description: This candidate will provide loss data in an 836 EDI format using the Provider Notification (PN) form and a push to GUI users via FAX or Email. IMA users will have the ability to view and query loss data in the IMA GUI. The CLEC must subscribe for this service through the Help Desk.

New functionality added:

Direct Inward Dialing (DID) will now display on Loss and Completion reports. New 836 Provider Notification (PN) form

Transactions coming from IMA will be at the Working Telephone Number (WTN) level mirroring current Loss Reports.

Forms impacted: Provider Notification (PN)

Fields impacted: PON will display as PONW and ORD will display as ORDW on the PN form per OBF guidelines. CVD translates to the completion date per OBF standards.

ACTs: N/A

Connie Winston - Qwest stated that this is for both EDI and GUI and that this is a design change so that the Loss & Completion Reports would be pulled from the same data that is sent to the CLECs. Connie stated that it would not be a different flow.

Questions & Answers: There were no questions submitted for this CR. Connie Winston - Qwest asked if there were any questions or comments. There were no comments, questions, or clarification requested.

7/17/03 CMP Systems Meeting Connie Winston/Qwest said that Line Loss through IMA has been a unique experience because the notification if generated but to a CLEC that is not to originator of the LSR. The PON field with a ‘W’ character will be the PON for the loss. John Berard/Covad asked if the PON number would be the same from the new LSR. Connie Winston/Qwest said that only the field name changes and the PON value will remain the same. John Berard/Covad asked if are going to send a loss notification to a new CLEC with a different PON Liz Balvin/MCI asked what field would be populated. Connie Winston/Qwest stated that (PON-W) is a new field that is going to be implemented and you will have the ability on your side to read that field. John Berard/Covad reiterated that this field name will contain a W and that is how it will be recognized

3/20/03 CMP systems Meeting Donna Osborne-Miller/AT&T presented the change request. Liz Balvin /WorldCom asked why the WorldCom CR was rejected. Lynn Notarriani/Qwest stated that the difference was a real-time EDI individual transaction vs. a report coming back from EDI. Connie Winston/Qwest stated that when we looked at your request, we thought you wanted all of Loss & Completions coming back through EDI. Liz Balvin/WorldCom said that she was frustrated because when she came to CMP she just wanted the Loss report and was told it had to be both (Loss & Completions). Connie Winston/Qwest stated that it is still a report. This is a transactional change and not a report. Lynn Notarriani/Qwest said that it might be helpful for WorldCom to go back and verify with their teams. Donna Osborne-Miller/AT&T said that the confusion may have been the way the CR was worded. Liz Balvin/WorldCom stated that it is still frustrating and feels that there was a lack of communication in what was put in her CR and questioned why Qwest did not provide options. Peggy Esquibel/Reed/Qwest stated that she sent an e-mail asking WorldCom if this CR met their needs. Liz Balvin/WorldCom stated that she did receive the e-mail and wanted to discuss with AT&T but had not done so. John Gallegos/Qwest reviewed the title of the WorldCom CR and noted that it was for Loss & Completion. Lynn Notarriani/Qwest said that we do not want to spend a lot of time trying to look at how to do the same thing in a different format or way. Any gaps in communication on the clarification call should have been identified by the WorldCom and their technical team. John Gallegos/Qwest stated that in the clarification call the request was identified as Loss and Completions but one of the WorldCom SMEs referred to the report. Connie Winston/Qwest recommended that in the future we need to make sure we have the correct subject matter experts on the clarification call. When it clearly states ‘report’, that’s the direction we would take. Donna Osborne-Miller/AT&T asked how everyone felt about opening up the invitation to anyone interested in joining the clarification call. Connie Winston/Qwest said that when we get the whole community together some people may have different ideas or have additional questions. Liz Balvin/WorldCom stated that it’s hard enough to get the initiator together so perhaps we could have the meeting set up with only the initiator and they could invite the entire group. Kit Thomte/Qwest stated that she will take an action item and talk to Judy Schultz/Qwest. Sharon Van Meter/AT&T said that AT&T would be happy to create the CR to get the language in the CMP document changed. Donna Osborne-Miller/AT&T stated that this issue warrants readdressing especially when a vote is at stake. Kit Thomte/Qwest said she understood and will take the action item and address in the April CMP Product/Process meeting.
