“The benefit of leveraging pMontion not only proves that OpenLink offers the best solution for our front- and middle-office physical trading and marketing activities, but that it is also the best solution for our logistic and back-office processing.” - Edison Mission Marketing & Trading  Click here for more details

Completing its front- to back-office transaction processing technology for the power markets, OpenLink's optional pMotion product for power scheduling provides the logistics coverage necessary for trading in today's North American physical markets. Unlike existing standalone scheduling systems, pMotion represents the industry's first truly integrated single database power scheduling product, designed and developed within Endur's proven, robust, straight-through-processing (STP), trading, risk management and operations environment.

This integrated product targets and eliminates logistic inefficiencies currently faced by many asset-based utilities, transmission providers, local distribution companies (LDCs), load-serving entities (LSEs), wholesalers, marketers and various financial institutions. Additionally, pMotion's robust reporting capability reduces the complexity of logistics reporting, such as that needed to comply with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Quarterly Report requirements.

pMotion's functionality offers unparalleled capabilities:

• Configurability, ergonomics and user-oriented features designed with the scheduler in mind
  
  
• Complete integration with Endur's trade capture, real-time position management, risk management and back office functionality
  
  
• Powerful and user-friendly query capability
  
  
• Management of direct and indirect bookouts
  
  
• Management of physical schedule, including physical flow validation and an interface with Independent System Operators (ISOs) systems
  
  
• Ability to match trades on an hourly, daily, monthly or user-defined period
  
  
• Transmission Loading Relief (TLR) management
  
  
• Transmission loss tracking and accounting
  
  
• Interfaces to external systems (e.g., exchanges, cash management, trading partners)
  
  
• Dynamic invoice generation and tracking
  
  
• Integrated physical option management
  
  
• Open architecture for real-time interfacing with external systems

Supporting growth, improving operations and reducing risk as well as overall cost of ownership, with pMotion, you'll stay one step ahead.
