Unexpected Total Gross Savings Errors Causing all Claims records to be Rejected
This is urgent because, I cannot see why these claims are being rejected and it will apply to SW claims also.

I submitted it to both Testing and Staging, and got the same results from both systems:
claim.total_first_year_gross_kwh - ERROR: "One or more savings fields are missing, so savings can't be calculated."
It seems to me that something has changed regarding the way CEDARS is calculating the following.
claim.total_first_year_gross_kwh
claim.total_first_year_gross_therm
claim.total_lifecycle_gross_kwh
claim.total_lifecycle_gross_therm
claim.total_first_year_gross_kw
claim.total_lifecycle_gross_kw
They are all erring out on all records.
I have confirmed that I am sending numunits, IR, RR, unitkWh1stbaseLine etc, and EUL_Yrs.
Can you help - thx

Sonja,
Thank you for this very quick response and for opening a ticket. The DeliveryType may vary. I do not recall it being part of the savings equation but updated my claims and resubmitted them to Testing as Upload 401. That fixed the problem I was seeing, and now there are no Savings errors.
Could you point me to the documentation?
Thanks again,
Chris

@scefalletta No worries. I'm glad that the problem was resolved. The calculations I was referring to are present on the Claims User Guide https://cedars.cpuc.ca.gov/claims/specification/user-guide/#FirstYearGross

Sonja,
Thank you for this very quick response and for opening a ticket. The DeliveryType may vary, I can fill it in and see what happens. I do not recall it being a part of the savings calculation and was unable to find the documentation that would show this. Could you point me to the documentation, and I will try running the data with the DeliveryType and let you know what happened.
Thanks again,
