Red-lined Design Artefacts: Interim Release 8.6
On Monday 25 November 2024 the Programme published Interim Release 8.6.
This release contains changes to DES138 and changes to Advanced Data Service (ADS) Validation Estimation.
None of these updates affect Swagger.
Programme participants are expected to conduct their own risk assessment against IR8.56 and execute their own appropriate regression testing without the need to formally Pre-Integration Test (PIT) report against it.
Full details of the issues addressed are covered in the Release Note below:

Red-lined Design Artefacts: Interim Release 8.5
On Wednesday 6 November 2024 the Programme published Interim Release 8.5.
This release contains design updates following the approval of CR056: Batching of Electricity Registration Data Service (ERDS) to Central Switching Service (CSS) Agent Appointment Files, and corrects four defects that were identified in SIT Functional Testing that are currently blocking test execution.
The Programme will issue guidance on the 'effective from' date of these updates via the testing coordinators.
None of these updates affect Swagger.
Programme participants are expected to conduct their own risk assessment against IR8.5 and execute their own appropriate regression testing without the need to formally Pre-Integration Test (PIT) report against it.

Red-lined Design Artefacts: Interim Release 8.4
On Wednesday 16 October 2024 the Programme published Interim Release 8.4.
This release contains an update to the Design (DES-138) addressing a specific defect preventing the IF-036 not being issued for Linked / Related Meter Point Administration Numbers (MPANs) and blocking several test cases. The Programme will advise on the ‘effective from’ date for the update in due course.
This release does not introduce any new functionality but does address specific identified errors that are causing failures in testing.
The updates will only impact Meter Point Registration Service (MPRS) and Data Integration Platform (DIP) services.
Programme participants are expected to conduct their own risk assessment against IR8.4 and execute their own appropriate regression testing without the need to formally PIT report against it.
We've published the Artefacts in their own library below to support participant engagement with the Artefacts.

Red-lined Design Artefacts: Interim Release 8.3
On Wednesday 18 September 2024, the Programme published Interim Release 8.3. This release contains a number of changes which, mainly, include updates to Swagger and DES-138. Importantly, IR8.3 will not introduce any new functionality but will address specific identified errors that are likely to cause future failures in testing.
Programme participants are expected to conduct their own risk assessment against IR8.3 and execute their own appropriate regression testing without the need to formally PIT report against it.
All Programme participants should use reasonable endeavours to align SIT-B systems to IR8.3 by 7 October 2024, to re-commence Settlement Testing. If Programme participants are unable to do so, please use IR8.2 and update to IR8.3 as soon as possible, at a suitable point before 21 October 2024 (for SIT-A alignment).
The Data Integration Platform (DIP) will be operating aligned to IR8.2 in SIT-B as of 7 October 2024 and updated to IR8.3 for 21 October 2024, aligned to SIT-A.
We've published the Artefacts in their own library below to support participant engagement with the Artefacts.

Red-lined Design Artefacts: Interim Release 8.2
On Wednesday 21 August the Programme published Interim Release 8.2. This release contains eight Design Issue Notifications (DINs).
This release does not introduce any new functionality but does address specific identified errors that are likely to cause future failures in testing.
Programme participants are expected to conduct their own risk assessment against IR8.2 and execute their own appropriate regression testing without the need to formally PIT report against it.
Programme participants will need to incorporate these updates before starting SIT Functional Cycle 3.

Red-lined Design Artefacts: Interim Release 8.1
On Wednesday 12 June 2024, the Programme published Interim Release 8.1 Design Artefacts.
Interim Release 8.1 contains 47 Design Issue Notifications (DINs), correcting errors in various Design Artefacts and defects in Swagger ahead of the upcoming Systems Integration Testing (SIT) Cycle 3 and Qualification Testing.
This release doesn't introduce any new functionality but does address specific identified errors that are likely to cause future failures in testing.
Programme participants are expected to conduct their own risk assessment against IR8.1 and execute their own appropriate regression testing without the need to formally Pre-Integration Test (PIT) report against it.
Programme participants will need to incorporate these updates before starting SIT Functional Cycle 3.
