Change Order #9 (INC Issue #632)
With INC Issue #632, a CO Code Part 4 must be on file prior to returning any
thousands-blocks from an NXX that was originally assigned for a Dedicated
Customer. As a result, PAS will now validate upon submission of a block
disconnect request if the block was assigned as part of a Dedicated Customer
Code request.
If the block was assigned as part of a Dedicated Customer Code request and:
• A CO Code Part 4 is on file, PAS will allow the
submission of the block disconnect request.
• ACO Code Part 4 is not on file, PAS will return an
error message stating “Your request to return this block has been
rejected because a Dedicated Code Part 4 has not been received confirming that
the code is In Service”.
When returning the first block from a NXX that was originally assigned for a
Dedicated Customer, the SP must also include in the remarks field provided that
the “NXX code has been activated in the PSTN, loaded in the NPAC, and all other
LERG Assignee responsibilities have been fulfilled” If the remarks are
not included at the time the PA processes the request, the request will be
denied.
Change Order #10 (PAS Enhancements)
The enhancement being added to PAS in Change Order #10 is a result of
suggestions received from the 2009 NANC survey. The enhancement will allow for
an SP/SPC user to submit a single modification request for multiple blocks from
one code including block transfer requests (Inter OCN modification).
The tools frame in PAS has been updated to include a new tool titled Multiple Block Modification, under the Individual
Block Requests tool.
Once the user selects Multiple Block Modification from
the tools frame, PAS will bring up the Select Type of Block Change
screen. The screen will allow the user to enter an NPA-NXX then select the
blocks to be modified. Only blocks assigned to or retained by the service
provider submitting the request will be allowed to be included in the
modification request unless the request is for a block transfer. Once the
modification type and effective date fields have been completed, the user will
select Continue and PAS will bring up the Part 1A
screen and if applicable the Part 1B screens. The Part 1A screen will allow
updates to be made to the fields applicable to the modification request type,
e.g. switch field will be editable for a switch modification. The modification
made will be applicable to all blocks included in the request. A separate Part
1B screen will be provided and must be completed for each block included in the
request. Once the request is submitted, PAS will create separate requests for
each block and provide a unique tracking number for each block modification.
