rules and regulations for each province. Oil and gas accounting inManitoba, Saskatchewan and British Columbia is very similar to that inAlberta.

In PAS, you must set up the framework (utilities) and the specificfacilities or properties.

For monthly processing, enter monthly data for the products and facilities,process the facilities (which runs the calculations and generates yournumbers), generate the regulatory files (for flat files), generate thefinancial submission files and submit the financial submission. You canalso run the reports for submission to the Manitoba government:

• Manitoba Monthly Battery Crown Royalty statement• Manitoba Monthly Battery Freehold Oil Production Tax statement• Manitoba Monthly Unit Crown Royalty statement• Manitoba Monthly Unit Freehold Oil Production Tax statement• Manitoba Monthly Production - S1 report• Manitoba Monthly Disposition - S2 report

In this document, we will look at how to report oil and gas productionto the Petroleum Branch, Manitoba Innovation, Energy and Mines inManitoba. The information shown here may include some informationfor other provinces because some of the screens in PAS pertain to morethan one province.

Business Rules

Business Associate ID s must first be set up in the Business Associates screen ( Utilities FinancialInformation Business Associates ).

Manitoba Oil Royalty BA (field)The Business Associate ID for the regulating government agency for Manitoba oil royalties. (i.e., PetroleumBranch, Manitoba Innovation, Energy and Mines)

Business Rules

The Business Associate ID must first be set up in the Business Associates screen ( UtilitiesFinancial Information Business Associates ).

Enter a code and use the confirm icon ( ) to validate or use the search icon ( ) to search for an id.

12 | PAS | Utilities

Manitoba Gas Royalty BA (field)The Business Associate ID for the regulating government agency for Manitoba gas royalties. (i.e., PetroleumBranch, Manitoba Innovation, Energy and Mines)

Business Rules

The Business Associate ID must first be set up in the Business Associates screen ( UtilitiesFinancial Information Business Associates ).

Enter a code and use the confirm icon ( ) to validate or use the search icon ( ) to search for an id.

General Ledger Mapping OverviewThe General Ledger Mapping screen provides the ability to set up the instructions for PAS to convert contractallocation data into financial transactions for export to an external accounting system.

( Utilities Financial Information General Ledger Mapping )

If the GL mapping has been changed, any amendments will be reversed out of the new GL account ratherthan the original GL account.

Tip: You can use the PAS Wizard or Query to view the Financial Interface Transactions/Original GLAccount ID in order to see both the original GL account and the new one.

How GL Mapping Works

GL Mapping records identify how various contract transactions are booked to an external financial accountingsystem.

When the financial transactions are created, fields in the Contract Allocation records are matched with fieldsin the GL Mapping table to determine which GL Accounts to use and whether they should be debited orcredited.

PAS searches the GL Mapping table and Contract Allocation table for identical matches in the followingfields. If no match is found, financial transactions can not be created and an error occurs.

• Contract Type• Contract Sub Type• Pay/Receive Code

From the resulting matches above, PAS continues searching, in order of the GL mapping sequence number,and looks for matches in the following fields. If an identical match is not found for a specific field, PAS usesthe GL Mapping default for that field. Defaults for the field are identified by a code of 'ALL' in the GLMapping table.

• Province• Product• Settlement• Ownership Type• BA ID

When Account References are used, PAS continues searching the resulting matches above, in order of theGL mapping sequence number, and looks for matches in the following fields, as applicable. Again, if an exact


match is not found for a specific field, the default for that field is used. Defaults for the field are identifiedby a code of 'ALL' in the GL Mapping table.

• Contract Account Reference• Cost Centre Account Reference• Facility Account Reference

Gross Up of Sales Volumes for Non-Operated Facilities

To use the optional non-operated gross-up functionality, select Yes on Allow Grossing Up Nonop ProductSales on the Client Table screen. (This field defaults to No .) When you change it to Yes , Gross Up BAappears for you to enter or search for the appropriate BA. The Revenue Allocate process creates the gross-upentries.

Note: Only Receive Revenue (contracts with Revenue Type set to Receive Revenue) are grossed up.

The rules governing the General Ledger accounts used by PAS for the grossed up entries for sales atnon-operated wells are:

1. If Client BA has ownership at a well, then PAS uses the Client BA Receive Revenue GL account forgrossing up sales for that well

2. If Client BA has no ownership at well, then PAS uses the Receive Revenue GL account for the BA thathas the smallest BA ID for grossing up sales for that well

Example of GL mapping rules (scenario and General Ledger Mapping screen settings):


For the non-operated wells:

1. WELL1 – Client BA has 100% ownership of a 20% Managed Interest, so PAS uses the Client BA GLAccount 5000200

2. WELL2 – Client BA and a silent partner has ownership in this well, so PAS uses the Client BA GL Account5000200

3. WELL3 – Client BA has no ownership in this well, so PAS applies rule 2 (use smallest BA ID BA's GLaccount). In this example, Owner3 has BA ID of 1234 and Gas Sales Receive Revenue GL Account of7000700 while Owner2 has BA ID of 9876 and Gas Sales Receive Revenue GL Account of 6000300 . Inthis case, PAS uses the GL Account of 7000700 for grossing up sales for WELL3.

For the Contract ID, PAS uses the contract ID of a sales contract that has the Client BA as the owner. If theClient BA is in more than one sales contract, PAS uses the first contract's contract ID. The offset to the TIKentries will go to a TIK clearing account with non-operated Gross Up BA as the owner and purchaser.

Tip: If the client BA is 100% owner, then the financial transactions for the Gross Up BA will havea zero volume and value, since that BA is the owner of the entire sale.

Contract Sub Type (field)The Contract Sub Type refines valid contract options and how the contract is processed.

Valid Values

Contract sub types are dependent on the contract type:

ContractSubType

Contract Type

Contract Sub Type (s) for facility charges are user defined in the Facility ChargeContract Sub Types screen. ( Utilities Contracts Facility Charge SubTypes)

3About Facility Master Files forManitoba

This section of the document details the setup of master files for facilitiesin Manitoba. The information shown here may include some information

Topics:

• Battery for other provinces because some of the screens in PAS pertain to morethan one province.• Wells

Battery

Facility master files for Manitoba are similar to those in other provinces.Unique details are included in the topics in this section.

In release 9.0.0, Manitoba functionality does not include support for:

• Gas functionality• Non-operated facilities• Primary and sub-facilities• Cascade facilities• Satellites• Well mid-month tie-in. Mid-month tie-in functionality does not allow

for cross-province facilities.

Caution

Fields and screens may be accessible for unsupported functionalitylisted above. However, you should be aware that some or all ofthe functionality behind these fields/screens have not beenimplemented or tested. Use of these unsupported features mayresult in the corruption of your data.

Selecting Process Gas Freeholds and Overrides on the battery'sFacility Master screen won't result in any processing nor will it resultin any errors or warnings.

Wells, Units and Tracts

Well, unit and tract master files are similar to those in other provinces.Unique details are included in the topics in this section. Differences forManitoba facilities include support for:

• horizontal wells• Ownership details for Unitized wells• spacing units

Battery

Government Code (field)The government-assigned code for a facility or business entity.

Business Rules

Field descriptions and business rules can vary depending on the context of the screen it is displayed on.

Description/RulesTabScreen

The government code on sub-facilities is derived from the primary facility it islinked to and cannot be edited.

FacilityMasters

Government codes are unique to a facility, however:

• The government code of an expired facility can be reused on a different facility.• For non-operated facilities, when Allow Duplicate Government Code for

Non-Ops with Cascade is set to Yes ( Utilities System ClientTable ), the same Government Code can be used by:

• a single non-operated facility, and• one or more non-operated point of sale facilities

The format of the Government Code varies by Province/State Code , asfollows:

DescriptionProvince/StateCode

The Government Code includes the province and facilitytype prefixes (e.g., AB BT) except for injections schemes.

AB (Alberta)

The Government Code is an eight-digit numeric code for allfacilities except units (or Production Entities, which are used toidentify unitization), which require a four-digit code.

BC (BritishColumbia)

For Saskatchewan facilities the Government Code formatdepends on the facility type, as follows:

SK(Saskatchewan)

• For wells, the Government Code is not editable and isderived from the UWI .

• For units, the Government Code is 5 digit alpha-numeric.• For all other facility types, the Government Code is 7

digit alphanumeric.

If you haven't entered a code in this field for the facility operator,an error message will appear when you run the PetrinexPipeline split process.

Note: For cross-border Petrinex reporting, make sure thefacility Government Code is entered. PAS puts theGovernment Code for the From/To Facility on thePetrinex SAF/OAF report.



DescriptionProvince/StateCode

The Government Code is an alphanumeric field up to 7characters long.

In government reports:

MB(Manitoba)

• For Manitoba batteries and injection facilities, only the last3-digits of Government Code are used as theBattery/Injection Facility ID in the regulatory file. (040 on abattery indicates a multi-well battery and 000 indicates aninjection facility.)

• Manitoba GP, CT, TM, PL, RF and WP facilities that havecross-border receipts and dispositions with Saskatchewanfacilities require a Saskatchewan equivalent government code(for SK Petrinex reporting) in the Government Code .

The Government Code for the well group.Well Groups


(BC and MB) Oil/Cond Crown Price Option (field)Indicates how the crown portion for oil and condensate is valued at BC/MB batteries and units.

Business Rules

This field is only available when:

• the Province/State Code is BC and the Facility Type is one of the following:

• BT (Battery)• UN (Unit)

OR

• the Province/State Code is MB (Manitoba) and the Facility Type is UN (Unit)

In Manitoba, if your battery or unit doesn't have a sales contract but the facility is liable for paying crown,select Input Crown Price so you can input the crown price with the monthly data. PAS sets up a Crown contractentry for monthly pricing data.

In British Columbia, the BC Royalty/Freehold tax is calculated on the production volume for the month. Ifno sales occur in the production month, crown royalty can be calculated using a crown price input. If thebattery is currently set up with Oil/Cond Crown Price Option of Facility Average Price , you should changethis to Input crown price . The Royalty/Tax share volume held in inventory from the previous month is notincluded in the current month's crown royalty estimate calculation.

Valid Values

DescriptionValue

PAS uses the battery average price to value the crown's portion of oil/cond. Thewell average price and unit average price is ignored.

When no sales exist, the Facility Average Price must be entered on the

Contract Valuation screen prior to processing ( Facility ) ( Monthly Contract Valuation Set Facility Average Price).

Facility Average Price (BC only)

For oil, the crown price is used in the BC 09 report and Calculate Oil CrownRoyalty Estimate .

For field condensate, the crown price is used for the BC 08 report.

If the crown price is not entered, field condensate volumes and values on the BC08 report will be the sum of all condensate sales.

The Crown Price must be entered on the Contract Valuation screen prior to

processing for both oil and field condensate ( Facility ) ( MonthlyContract Valuation Crown ).

The Crown Input Price field is available on the Contract Valuation screen (Facility ) ( Monthly Contract Valuation) when View this facility as ais set to Point of Sale .

Input Crown Price

The BC/MB Crown Price is used to value field condensate in the BC 08 report,oil in BC 09 report and Calculate Oil Crown Royalty Estimate .


DescriptionValue

PAS uses the well/unit average price to value the crown's portion of oil/cond.

When no sales exist, the Average Price must be entered on the ContractValuation screen prior to processing.

Well Average Price (MB only)

Wells

Horizontal Well (field)Indicates if the well is a horizontal well.

Tip: You should create the new well detail, ownership, and spacing unit information at the same time.

DescriptionUnitizedValue

HorizontalWellValue

When a horizontal well is unitized, i.e., the Unitized field on the Ownership tab is set toYes , the crown calculation is based on the tract level details.

YesYes

The Spacing Unit tab appears for input.

At least one spacing unit is required for each non-unitized horizontal well.

NoYes

The well is a vertical well that is not unitized.NoNo

This vertical well is unitized and the crown calculation is based on the tract level details.YesNo

Business RulesThis field is available for wells in all provinces, but it is for informational purposes only (for Query use) ifthe Province/State Code is not Manitoba .

For Manitoba wells, after you set this field and save the record, you can't change this field. If you make anerror during initial setup, delete the record and recreate the well master correctly.

Unitized (field)Indicates whether or not the well is part of a unit. This field works with the Horizontal Well field on theWell Master screen.

Business Rules

Ownership exceptions for a unit (entered on the unit's Ownership tab in Exceptions section, by product)apply to all wells that are part of the unit.

BC units can only consist of all operated wells or all non-operated wells, not a mixture of both. The first welladded to the unit determines if the unit is operated or non-operated.Injection wells cannot be unitized. This functionality is currently unavailable in PAS.


Manitoba Facilities

When a horizontal well is unitized, i.e., the Unitized field on the Ownership tab is set to Yes , the crowncalculation is based on the tract level details.

You can't change the this setting if a spacing unit detail exists (on the Spacing Unit tab ( Masters

( Well or Unit) Spacing Unit tab)). If you change the unitized setting on a horizontal well, the spacingunit data is removed.

This field is date effective.


DescriptionUnitizedValue

HorizontalWellValue

When a horizontal well is unitized, i.e., the Unitized field on the Ownership tab is set toYes , the crown calculation is based on the tract level details.

YesYes

The Spacing Unit tab appears for input.


NoYes

The well is a vertical well that is not unitized.NoNo

This vertical well is unitized and the crown calculation is based on the tract level details.YesNo

Ownership OverviewThe Ownership tab provides the ability to specify default and exception DOIs for a well or unit and to linka well to a unit.

Business Rules

The default ownership information is used for all production sources, regardless of products and volumes,except where an exception DOI has been explicitly defined for the product. While you can set up a wellwithout adding ownership information, when you run the processing, the well requires ownership. You willsee an error if no ownership is defined. It is also used to distribute facility charge expenses that are not relatedto a specific product.

The default ownership must be defined and saved before exceptions can be added.

For unitized wells, the unit's ownership is used.

For BC units,

• The oil royalty calculation does not use unit ownership. Instead, it uses the unit tract ownership.• BC units can only consist of all operated wells or all non-operated wells, not a mixture of both. The first

well added to the unit determines if the unit is operated or non-operated.• The Wellhead Fluid for all unitized wells in a BC unit must be the same. The first well added to a BC unit

determines the unit's Wellhead Fluid .

For Manitoba units, the oil royalty calculation uses tract ownership details. The mineral interest and vintagesfor each tract must total 100%.

In Saskatchewan, the Mineral Interest of non-unit wells and units with Apply To set to Non-Operated Wellson the Ownership tab, is only the Managed Interest as assigned by the operator by mineral type. The totalshould not exceed the revenue Managed Interest .


The net share of the Mineral Interest in Saskatchewan is needed in order to accurately calculate theSaskatchewan crown royalties/freehold taxes which are payable to the Saskatchewan government. For example,if a well is 100% crown, with ABC (operator) having a 75% ownership and XYZ (the non-op BA) having25%, then the mineral interest should be 25%.

Tip: If a unit has only non-operated wells, the Ownership tab will initially be blank. Change the Applyto value to Non-Operated to see the ownership details.

Important: Owners & Producers

In PAS, you do not specifically identify the producers of product. Instead, PAS determines who theproducers are using owners specified in the DOIs and applicable contract details.

The Owners field records the legal owner(s) of the product at the time of sale. The Producer fieldrecords the parties that have an ownership interest in the product at its source. The producer is differentthan the owner when the producer has assigned some of the produced volumes to another BusinessAssociate through a contract, e.g., Alberta Oil Crown TIK, Freehold and Override TIK. Take-in-kindroyalties are generally booked as an increase to the producer's sales and as a royalty expense to theproducer.

Important: When entering data on this screen, you are entering data for the selected Facility Detaildate (shown just under the tab name). To change the effective date for data on this screen, create a newdate effective master detail by clicking New in the Facility/Well Detail button area.

Note: The following client configuration options may affect the behaviour of this feature:

1. When Cost Centre /DOI validation is in effect, the well or unit's ownership information must matchan entry in the Cost Centre/DOI Validation screen. Invalid combinations generate a warningmessage when saved, however an error occurs at processing time.

• Cost Centre /DOI validation is only in effect when the Validate Cost Centre/DOI is set to Yeson the Client Table screen. ( Utilities System Client Table Financial Optionstab)

• Valid Cost Centre /DOI combinations are set up in the Cost Centre/DOI Validation screen.( Utilities Financial Information Cost Centre/DOI Validation )

2. When Queue Ownership Data is set to Yes on the Client Table screen ( Utilities System Client Table Financial Options tab), the expiration data received from external systems for

Cost Center/DOI combinations is queued.

• The expiration data for DOIs and Cost Center/DOI combinations is ignored by all PAS processesuntil the expiration process is run on the Update Ownership Data screen ( ProcessUpdate Ownership Data ).

• The Update Well/Unit Ownerships process on the Update Ownership Data screen providesthe ability to automatically update the ownership data for wells and units to use the newly effectiveCost Center/DOI combinations.


Spacing Units

Spacing Unit OverviewUse the Spacing Unit tab for information about the spacing units linked to a horizontal well in Manitoba.The record of spacing units details (percents) are a date-effective detail for the well.


Business Rules

Crown Masters

Crown Master (MB) OverviewThe Crown tab provides the ability to set up crown royalty options for a well or unit.

Business Rules

Important: When entering data on this screen, you are entering data for the selected Facility Detaildate (shown just under the tab name). To change the effective date for data on this screen, create a newdate effective master detail by clicking New in the Facility/Well Detail button area.

Security Rules

Master data may only be modified by users included in the Group that the facility belongs to.

Calculate minimum crown royalty and production tax (field)Indicates whether or not the minimum crown royalty and production tax applies to a Manitoba well.

Business Rules

Calculate minimum crown royalty and production tax is only available for Manitoba wells that have:

• Royalty Incentives field = Holiday• Base = MB Date And Volume Based

This incentive applies to wells drilled after Dec 31, 2013 and before Jan 1, 2019.

When Calculate minimum crown royalty and production tax is set to Yes , minimum crown royalties andproduction taxes are calculated on Holiday volumes.

PAS splits the volume by vintage and spacing unit and applies these royalty calculations on those volumesseparately.

• If the well has a Crown mineral interest, a Crown Royalty is calculated. The royalty payable on the holidayvolumes is the lesser of:

• 3% of the volume of the oil produced for each producing month; or

• the royalty that would be payable for each producing month if the well production was not classifiedas Holiday oil

• If the well has a Freehold mineral interest, a Production Tax is calculated. The production tax payable onthe holiday volumes is the lesser of:

• 1% of the volume of the oil produced for each producing month; or

• the production tax that would be payable for each producing month if the well production was notclassified as Holiday oil

Restriction: The Manitoba government has not provided a specification of how the calculation shouldwork for units and therefore the Calculate minimum crown royalty and production tax functionalityhas not been developed for unitized wells.

The Calculate minimum crown royalty and production tax field does appear on the unitized wellsCrown tab but is ignored during the MB Oil Royalty process.


Incentive Volume (field)For AB wells, this value is the maximum Crown volume that can be produced by a well before the royaltyincentive no longer applies. For MB wells, this value is the initial holiday volume.

Note:

Effective December 31, 2008, these Alberta programs terminate:

• Low Productivity Well Royalty Reduction Regulation• Reactivated Well Royalty Exemption Regulation• Third Tier Exploratory Well Royalty Exemption Regulation• Horizontal Re-entry Well Royalty Reduction Regulation• Experimental Project Petroleum Royalty Regulation

Business Rules

This field is required when

1. Royalty Incentives field is set to Holiday and the Base is one of the following:

• Volume Based (AB wells)• Date and Volume Based (AB or MB wells) OR

2. 5% Maximum Royalty Rate is set to Yes and the Base is set to Production Month or Volume Based .

Tip: Incentive Volume is a required field.

Royalty Incentives (field)The type of royalty incentive program that applies to the well.



Valid Values

DescriptionValue

For low productivity oil wells.Low Prod

The low productivity royalty reduction has a 3 tier threshold volume calculation. Theapplicable threshold is determined by the Alberta Department of Energy.

The low productivity royalty reduction is value capped at $50,000.

Each month, the royalty volume owing to the crown is calculated as the lesser of

1. the crown royalty on the threshold volume2. the crown royalty on the actual production volume


DescriptionValue

Examples:

• Production Volume is Higher than THRESHOLD Volume:

• THRESHOLD = 47 m3, Royalty Calculation on THRESHOLD is 2.8 m3

• Production = 66 m3, Royalty Calculation on production is 5.5 m3

• Royalty Volume Owing = 2.8 m3

• Benefit Value = 5.5 m3 - 2.8 m3

• Benefit Value = 2.7 m3

• Production Volume is Lower than THRESHOLD Volume (Benefit Value will Alwaysbe 0):

• THRESHOLD = 73 m3, Royalty Calculation on THRESHOLD is 6.8 m3

• Production = 66 m3, Royalty Calculation on production is 5.5 m3

• Royalty Volume Owing = 5.5 m3

• Benefit Value = 5.5 m3 - 5.5 m3

• Benefit Value = 0 m3

The calculated royalty volume is multiplied by the par price to determine the amount to"draw down" the value cap. Once the cap has been completely drawn down, the Low Prodis expired and royalty is due on the full volume of production.

For wells on a royalty holiday.Holiday

Royalty holidays are not valid for wells that are 100% freehold.

For wells in Manitoba, a well can be on holiday using MB Date and Volume Based asthe Base . The incentive can be valid for 10 years from the entered Start Date . Whenprocessing Crown royalties, PAS displays a message on the production month prior to theEnd Date .

For existing wells where a horizontal wellbore is drilled.HorizontalRe-Entry

The crown oil royalty rate is based on the rate associated with the maintenance volume,as approved by the DOE.

Business Rules

If the well is unitized, the oil crown royalty is calculated for the unit atthe tract level.

For horizontal wells, the crown calculation of royalty volume is basedon the production volumes of each spacing unit.

If the horizontal well is non-unitized, the crown calculation of Freeholdtax is based on the production volumes of each spacing unit.

Before you can process Manitoba regulatory reporting, your setup mustinclude:

• the Vintage Code and K Factor (on the Oil Royalty Factorsscreen ( Utilities SK Regulatory OR MB RegulatoryOil Royalty Factors ))

• a Mineral Interest for the well (on the Oil Royalty Factors screen)• payor reporting interest percent ( Crown DOI on the Ownership

tab ( Masters ( Well or Unit) Ownership ))• payor royalty tax share (in the Freehold Tax DOI field on the

Ownership tab ( Masters ( Well or Unit) Ownership))

Contract Notes

PAS calculates at the well level and the distribution is based on theCrown DOI defined for the well. It is calculated for each working interestowner (WIO) in a DOI.

The Revenue Type for contracts can be either Receive Revenue or TIK .For multiple WIOs, if the Responsibility Indicator is No , the RevenueType for the contract must be TIK .

Crown contracts must have the Contract Sub Type of MB Oil Crown .

Freehold Tax Notes

PAS calculates the Manitoba freehold oil crown tax rate, based onmonthly oil production, at the well level and the distribution is based onthe well's DOI definition for each WIO's share.

The well's operator is responsible for payment of the tax on any freeholdoil production. Each WIO's share of the tax is deducted from the paymentmade by the operator through the sales revenue.

For contracts, the Contract Type must be Crown and the Contract SubType must be MB FH Tax .

Regulatory Files Creation OverviewThe Regulatory Files Creation screen provides the ability to create trial and final regulatory files for BC(in CSV format), Manitoba (in TXT format, flat file) and Saskatchewan (in TXT format) facilities. A facilitymust be approved to appear in the regulatory file.

Business Rules

Only when a facility has been included in a Final Process will the actual submission file be created. TheTrial Process just provides a report.

Once a facility has been included in a Final submission file it is flagged as submitted and is no longer availablefor inclusion in another submission file.

For BC reports, error and warning messages are only shown in the feedback section of the screen. Print ( )the feedback report to retain this information.

For SK reports, the error and warning messages are displayed in the feedback section of the screen. Print () the feedback report to retain this information.Warnings are also reported in the summary report.

The file creation process creates a CSV file and a summary file. You can open either file with Wordpad toview its contents. Alternately, you can see the source data in PAS by using the PAS Wizard or Query.



Important: When creating the regulatory files, PAS prefixes the file with the Process and in BC theReport Type (e.g. TRIAL_BC 09_, 00086.687.TRIAL.2008-03-14-11-51-04, or FINAL_S2_) so thatthe various reports can be run independently and will not over-write each other. This does not apply tothe BC 08, which does not have prefixes.

• You must manually remove the prefix from the file name prior to submitting the report to thegovernment agency.

• For the BC 08, you must manually rename the CSV file prior to submitting the report to thegovernement.

Note: Both Trial and Final submissions create a summary report detailing the following:

• a list of facilities that are included in the file• a current/amendment indicator for each facility• for current month submission, a list of facilities excluded from the filing and the reason

why• the line count for the regulatory file

Caution

If a Current Month Final regulatory file needs to be re-created prior to sending it to the government, allfacilities to be included in the file must be re-approved on the applicable Regulatory screen (even


though all those facilities have not been reset ). For example, if ten facilities were selected for theinitial Final , all ten need to be re-approved to re-create the file.
