Table XIa-3:

NAPTableManagementWS.AddNEInstallationtoNAP() function

Purpose
This function receives a request for adding a new entrant new installation to the national allocation plan table. [F10 The allowances allocated for the years before the current year will have a value of zero.] If the new entrant new installation does not receive an allocation, the amount of allowances will have a value of zero. If the new entrant new installation does receive an allocation, the reserve is reduced by an equivalent quantity. The Community independent transaction log authenticates the initiating registry (Originating Registry) by calling the AuthenticateMessage() function and checks the version of the initiating registry by calling CheckVersion() function. If authentication and version checks pass, a ‘ 1 ’ result identifier is returned without any response codes, the contents of the request are written to a file by calling the WriteToFile() function and the request is put in a queue. If authentication or version checks fail, a ‘ 0 ’ result identifier is returned together with a single response code indicating the error cause. The ‘ PermitIdentifier ’ means the permit identification code comprising the elements set out in Annex VI.
