My understand was that this wasn't about the reporting but about the 
APO. As already mentioned sending information to the publisher and then 
breaking down the COUNTER reports by that information already would be 
possible for the COUNTER Master Reports, so all we would have to do is 
to agree on what attribute should be used and, if enough publishers 
agree to implement this, to suggest a common extension for the COUNTER 
reports for breaking the usage down (similar to the Institution_Name and 
Customer_ID extensions defined in section 11.5 of the Code of Practice 
which allow to break reports for consortia down by members). There would 
be no need to change the COUNTER reports or the COUNTER_SUSHI API for 
this purpose.

Best regards,
Bernd
