DAYTRACK

DAYTRACK identifies the actual settlement run processed for each settlement day. Settlement run is in the column EXPOSTRUNNO. Generally, the number of the settlement run used in the latest statement is the maximum number.

DAYTRACK is a public data, and is available to all participants.

Source

DAYTRACK is populated by the posting of a billing run.

Volume

Daily billing runs insert one row per day. A non-interim statement has seven records inserted per week. An indicative maximum is 35 records inserted per week.

Column Schema

For more information, see the dedicated documentation page.

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

This column is not mandatory.

Example: 2026/08/24 08:39:22

METER_CASEID

The Metering Case Id used for the Settlement Run. For Estimate Daily Run this will be 0

SQL Type: NUMBER(5,0) Polars Type: pl.Int32

This column is not mandatory.

Examples: 0, 11781, 11852

METER_RUNTYPE

The Type of Settlement Run(ESTIMATE/PRELIM/FINAL/REVISE)

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.

Warning

There are some months with no files.

Data Size

Each year of data is approximately 28 KB when zipped, 282 KB as unzipped CSV.

Deduplication and PDR Loader Configuration

The primary keys are:

The transaction type is "insert", which means that you will usually not see duplicate data. If you do, you can deduplicate based on the primary keys, without sorting first. Rows from different files with the same primary keys should have the same values.

PDR Loader configuration is:

Report Name Report Subtype Version
SETTLEMENTS DAYTRACK 6
SETTLEMENTS DAYTRACK 7

This means that the CSV files start with metadata columns:

I,SETTLEMENTS,DAYTRACK,6,...
D,SETTLEMENTS,DAYTRACK,6,...

or

I,SETTLEMENTS,DAYTRACK,7,...
D,SETTLEMENTS,DAYTRACK,7,...
