Lizette, Your situation is precisely why I recommend Al Sherkow's LCS product (www.sherkow.com) to audit SCRT. In the four years I did SCRT reporting, I never once had IBM question any of my submissions *and* I always caught those pesky situations that led to the problem you described before the SCRT cutoff date.
As to Ted's suggestion, I would not trust my local rep to know that information. Al Sherkow - Yes, David Chase - Yes, Kay Adams - Yes.....anyone else - prove to me you know what you are talking about. Finally, Mark is entirely correct about the reference to the web pages. I had to get this point across to the legal department when the WLC and VWLC contracts were signed. IBM changed the game when they started using standard Ts & Cs for all companies that wanted to participate *and* used their web pages to convey that information. At that point, IBM was legally liable for the content they conveyed.

We made an error like this (NO89 DDs issue) in our SCRT and it was going to cost us several 100,000 of dollars. However, we reran our SCRT process to correct the numbers and IBM gave us a Credit. Apparently they don't do refunds. Lizette > >The OP doesn't need to ask his IBM rep.
