NOTE 1: An entry of “A” indicates the following:

• ASR (PON) has been marked as completed by the provider, service has been activated and billing may commence.

• The ASC-EC defined common completion date should be used by all EC’s involved in a MULTI-EC ordering scenario.

• In a MULTI-EC ordering scenario, all EC’s involved should follow the completion coordination process defined in ATIS-0404120 Multiple Exchange Carriers Ordering and Design (MECOD); ASSUMPTIONS and COMPLETION sections.

NOTE 2: An entry of “B” indicates the ASR (PON) has a condition which impacts the critical date(s).  The use of “B” is only applicable after the ASR has been confirmed.

NOTE 3: An entry of “C” indicates that all the conditions that would have required clarification from the customer have been satisfied. This could have occurred as the result of a SUP being received or through verbal negotiations between the customer and provider that determined a SUP is not required. The use of “C” is only applicable after a previous C/NR has been issued with an entry in the SUPR field.

NOTE 4: An entry of “D” indicates that the C/NR is informational only and no response is required.

NOTE 5: An entry of “E” indicates that one or more ERROR TAG fields are populated on the C/NR.

NOTE 8: An entry of “H” indicates the combination of “G” and “E” conditions.

NOTE 9: An entry of “K” indicates the ASR has been cancelled by the provider based on no response to a previously issued C/NR. When a MULTI-EC ordering scenario exists, the EC’s involved should follow the coordination process defined in ATIS-0404120 MECOD; ASSUMPTIONS and COMPLETION sections and synchronize the order status with the ASC-EC.

NOTE 10: An entry of “L” indicates the ASR has had a provider initiated modification applied to the base and/or sub-location address and the complete corrected service address(es) are provided in the Address Modification Section.
