BIDDUIDDETAILSTRK

BIDDUIDDETAILSTRK shows the tracking for the associated object BIDDUIDDETAILS. Together, BIDDUIDDETAILSTRK and BIDDUIDDETAILS define the registration data for each ancillary service a dispatchable unit is registered to provide. The registration data is required to validate a dispatchable unit bid submitted for that ancillary service.

BIDDUIDDETAILSTRK data is public to participants.

Source

BIDDUIDDETAILSTRK updates as dispatchable unit registration details are modified.

Volume

Approximately 200 records per year

Column Schema

DUID

Dispatchable unit identifier

Warning

This column may contain funny characters such as / (slash) or # (hash). This may break hive-style partitioning.

For more information, see the dedicated documentation page.

SQL Type: VARCHAR2(10) Polars Type: pl.Categorical

This column is mandatory, and a primary key.

Examples:

  • AGLHAL
  • AGLSOM
  • ANGAS1
  • ANGAS2
  • APD01
  • APD02
  • APS
  • AWABAREF
  • BAPS
  • BARCALDN

EFFECTIVEDATE

Market date starting at 04:30 inclusive

SQL Type: DATE Polars Type: pl.Date()

This column is mandatory, and a primary key.

Example: 1998/10/25 00:00:00

Note that AEMO represents dates as datetimes with a midnight time component.

VERSIONNO

Record version number

SQL Type: NUMBER(3,0) Polars Type: pl.UInt16

This column is mandatory, and a primary key.

Examples: 1, 2

AUTHORISEDBY

User that authorised record. A NULL value indicates the record is not authorised.

SQL Type: VARCHAR2(15) Polars Type: str

This column is not mandatory.

Examples:

  • 2008_EOY
  • CASSA
  • DAVIDGA
  • GAURAVS
  • JBEALE
  • JEFFP
  • JOHNB
  • LUKEB
  • MARKS
  • PETAE

AUTHORISEDDATE

Date of record authorisation. A NULL value indicates the record is not authorised.

Warning

Despite what the name suggests, this is a datetime, not a date.

SQL Type: DATE Polars Type: pl.Datetime()

This column is not mandatory.

Example: 2001/09/12 10:37:47

LASTCHANGED

Last date and time record changed

For more information, see the dedicated documentation page.

SQL Type: DATE Polars Type: pl.Datetime()

This column is not mandatory.

Example: 2001/09/13 16:37:57

New Data Timing

When dispatchable unit registration details are modified

Code Examples

Polars

Casting is enums, categoricals etc is not essential, but may speed up parsing. Swapping int for pl.UInt16, pl.Int32 would also speed up parsing. However some of the datatypes are inferred, so they may be wrong.

This code deduplicates for you. Deduplication is normally only required across multiple months.

This code assumes that all columns are present, which may not be true for older files.

Availability

Visibility: Public

This table is in the public monthly MMSDM archive.

I have collated the list of all those files into one place, in this CSV metadata file. (Columns year, month, url, compressed_size in bytes).

The earliest available data is month 1 of 2015. The most recent available data is month 9 of 2026.

Every month in between has a file. (No gaps.)

Data Size

Each year of data is approximately 313 KB when zipped, 3 MB as unzipped CSV.

Deduplication and PDR Loader Configuration

The primary keys are:

Tip

Bid deduplication is particularly tricky. See the guide.

The transaction type is "INSERT-UPDATE", which means that you will likely see duplicate data with different values.

You should deduplicate by sorting based on LASTCHANGED, within each group of primary keys.

PDR Loader configuration is:

Report Name Report Subtype Version
PARTICIPANT_REGISTRATION BIDDUIDDETAILSTRK 1

This means that the CSV files start with metadata columns:

I,PARTICIPANT_REGISTRATION,BIDDUIDDETAILSTRK,1,...
D,PARTICIPANT_REGISTRATION,BIDDUIDDETAILSTRK,1,...

ROW_FILTER_TYPE is LASTCHANGED
