Description Of Change
Currently there is a defect in IMA due to the fact that USOC -ORDMS is now being required on all LSRs that are addressing accounts on a 5E switch. Subsequently, Qwest stated that it was not all 5E switches but that ORMDS in now required only on a 5E switch that has Call Return Deluxe. In addition, Qwest stated that there was not a method for determining which 5E switches have Call Return Deluxe and that Tel West should submit the order and if it errors out, then Tel West will know the switch has Call Return Deluxe. For example, rejected LSR 6312075 for PON 30310RB07. This was rejected and was the first one rejected that was on a 5E switch.

Tel West does not believe that Qwest Retail Reps do not have this same ordering complexity. Tel West also sees a defect in Qwest business rules since required information isn't provided for on Qwest CSRs. Qwest business rules as defined causes CLECs inoperable functionality. If a feature is not supported, Qwest should have an IMA BPL reject (up-front). It is inappropriate for CLECs to receive a FOC, followed by an ISC manual reject stating the feature doesn't exist.

Kerry,

We are still getting the ORDMS errors and are unable to add the block. I have noticed the switch is DMS and we are blocking

the last call return feature. I don;t think anything has changed that I can see.

LSR Reject 11784805

LSR Reject 11747738

The error also states that we can't have ORDMS and HBQ block at the same time. We need to have both blocks.

ORDMS- Redial message suppressor

HBQ - Last call return

Excerpt from CMP Monthly Meeting April 22, 2003

SCR032703-01 Qwest To Remedy Defect In IMA Or Wholesale System Related To USOC –ORDMS (Originated by Tel West) Lynne Powers/Tel West reviewed the description of change of the CR.

John Gallegos/Qwest stated that Qwest had tested the system and that they had not found a defect in the system. He stated that from Qwest’s perspective, the system was operating correctly. He stated that Qwest could accommodate the request for the BPL edit and stated that the LOE is 1825 to 3050 hours.

Lynne Powers/Tel West stated that on the clarification call she requested verification that Qwest retail had the same order complexity.

John Gallegos/Qwest stated that Qwest retail did have the same order complexity and that both the CLECs and Qwest had to look up the availability of the USOC. He stated that the CLECs use the Service Availability Query.

Lynne Powers/Tel West stated that her Service Manager told her to submit the order and if it was rejected then it was not available.

Laurel Nolan/Qwest stated that that was not currently the process and that she would touch base with Tel West’s Service Manager.

Lynne Powers/Tel West asked if there was documentation detailing how the process worked.

John Gallegos/Qwest stated that he could take an action item to review the documentation. He stated again that the appropriate process was to use the Service Availability Query.

Lynne Powers/Tel West stated again that Qwest did not think that it was a system defect and that the retail process had the same complexity.

John Gallegos/Qwest restated that it appeared that the system was working correctly and that Qwest had provided the LOE of 1825 to 3050 hours for the BPL edit. He stated that he assumed that that was what Tel West wanted.

Lynne Powers/Tel West stated that it was.
