  16. Evening Cycle Nominations Nominations can be completed via batch and on-line.

  17. Batch Nominations on the Evening Cycle • Upload a batch file nominating 0 (zero) for all of your Timely Cycle nominations. This will “zero out” your Timely Cycle nominations, so you do not receive a false MDCQ error message for end users.

  18. Batch Nominations on the Evening Cycle • Upload a second batch file with all the cumulative amounts of your Timely Cycle and Evening Cycle nominations. • Ex: You nominated 75 to an end user in the Timely Cycle, but want to increase that nomination to 600 in the Evening Cycle. Your batch file will have a nomination for the full 600 in the Evening Cycle.

  19. On-line Nominations on the Evening Cycle • Enter the cumulative amount of the Timely and Evening nominations. • Ex: You nominated 50 to an end user in the Timely Cycle, but want to increase that nomination to 400 in the Evening Cycle. You will nominate the full 400 on the Evening Cycle.
