Introduction
Provisioning is the 1st of the 3 total steps of the end-users' onboarding process as described here, and it is an exclusive B2B process.
For reference, these 3 states are described below:

Purpose of B2B Provisioning
B2B provisioning of end-users serves a three-fold purpose:
- Registration (& thus usage of NET2GRID services) of end-users is not allowed unless previously provisioned by the Customer. Given that, when creating/provisioning an end-user account through the B2B Account Management API all the necessary information is provided in order for the end-user to be fully ready to continue the rest of the onboarding process of registration & activation themselves via the CE-API and utilize all the relevant services of the NET2GRID Insight Platform.
- The Customer is setting the core guidelines of how & which NET2GRID services are to be utilized by end-users, based on their strategy & offerings.
- For example, Service type information is provided, based on which, the way that data is reported to the NET2GRID Insight Platform, is specified.
- Other information could be the Meter input method etc.
- NET2GRID ensures the unique identification of an end-user (account), their household (installation) as well as their meters in NET2GRID Insight Platform.
- These (external) identifiers could be identical to these of the Customers' CRM systems.
