My actual packaging volumes differ from what I licensed. What do I do?

Adjust them with your system operator first, then correct your LUCID data report to match exactly.

Quick answer

Fix it with your system operator first, then in LUCID. ZSVR says amendments to the licensed volumes can be made only by the system operator, not by ZSVR or in LUCID, and that the data in LUCID “must correspond exactly” to what you participated for that period. So ask your operator to adjust the contract, then correct your data report in LUCID to the same figures. If you have a representative, it does both for you.
