—	—	no	→ Step 55	—
55	Does the sender of the message for this usage period match the grid operator previously assigned in the recipient's system? Note: If no previous assignment exists, the question must be answered with "yes".	no	A17	For this usage period, the sender of the message is not the previous grid operator. A grid operator change has therefore been carried out.

Note: From 01.06.2025 00:00 the energy quantity of the market location can no longer be aggregated by the ÜNB and can therefore no longer be included in the BKA.
—	—	no	→ Step 157	—
157	Is the date “Use of the data until” specified in the usage period ≥ 01.06.2025 00:00?

—	—	no	→ Step 160	—
160	Is the specified standardized profile at the specified point in time part of the grid operator's profile definition list for the balancing area?	no	A13	Normalized profile is not available.
—	—	yes	→ Step 170	—
