This modification was implemented on 3 November 2022 as part of the November 2022 SEC Release.
What is the issue?
Supplier Parties are currently unable to view Service Request Variants (SRVs) or Service Responses from other Service Users that they receive on their Devices. This is due to an obligation in the SEC that states only an individual User can view the SRVs and Service Responses they send or receive. This therefore leads to SRVs and Service Responses being received by Users which lack visibility or information, which is causing issues where they may be high priority or have security implications.
What is the solution?
To allow all Responsible Suppliers and Network Operators to have full visibility of all the SRVs and Service Responses on a Devices they own or have a certificate placed on, via the Self Service Interface (SSI). This will use Service Audit Trail (SAT) data, which will not breach General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), to access the list of SRVs and Service Responses.
