BIDTYPES

Name

BIDTYPES

Comment

BIDTYPES, together with the associated tracking data in BIDTYPESTRK, define a set of ancillary services with bidding parameters from a given date.
BIDTYPES is static data describing each type of bid quantity, the number of applicable bands, how many days ahead a price lock down becomes effective and the validation rule that applies.


Description

BIDTYPES is public to participants

Source

BIDTYPES updates when the static data relating to an ancillary service type is modified.

Volume

Expect modifications to be rare. Allow for approximately 20 records per year.
