Company
A Company in TariffShark is a FERC-regulated entity for which electronic tariff filings are made. In order to make electronic tariff filings with FERC, a company must be registered. This is not a function of TariffShark but is an important prerequisite. Once registered, FERC will assign a company identifier and a password which are used to make electronic tariff filings.
In TariffShark, you may create a Company only if the company has a valid TariffShark license. The name you enter when creating the Company must exactly match the name in the license. A company can have one of three types of licenses:
- Premier - With a Premier license, all capabilities of TariffShark are available to users when they are working on the company's tariffs.
- Plus - A Plus license provides all of the same capabilities as a Premier license except that tariffs may be decomposed into no more than 20 section or sheets.
- Lite - Under a Lite license, a company's tariffs may not be decomposed into sections or sheets; whole document is the only option. Also, all preparation and editing of tariff content must be done outside of TariffShark. With a Lite license, you must upload the content of your tariffs into TariffShark.
- Read-Only - Under a Read-Only license, none of the electronic tariff data belonging to the Company may not updated. This data includes, but is not limited to, Tariffs, Filings, Tariff Records, and Tariff Record Versions.
