Subject: Buy/Resells - What We Learned

John,

From our research into Avista and others, here is what we have learned about
using Buy/Resells:

Whether to select "Buy From" or "Sell To" upon deal entry is determined by
the ultimate purpose of the BR, as shown here:

Purpose:
Pay the Customer (sleeve or other service they have provided to EPMI)

Type is Buy From
Pricing is: Buy = EPMI price
Sell = Customer price

Charge the Customer (services or other, like transmission recapture)

Type is Sell To
Pricing is: Buy = Customer price
Sell = EPMI price

I hope this helps to determine the correct way of entering a buy/resell, and
will alleviate settlement discrepancies in the future. If you agree with
this, feel free to share it with the real time group.
