Some thoughts...
You could overload the CustomerReference or the Requestor to include the password. EG. Cust123:password.
For Consortium Reports, the CustomerReference would denote the consortiums's account rather than the individual member. If the request is for Consortium Report 1, all consortium members would be represented in the report.
Thanks

Subject: [sushidevelopers] SUSHI request object
Hi,
I have been looking at the SUSHI request object and have a couple of questions.
1.
How do I ask for or receive a password for requests, we currently authenticate our clients requests using the customer reference and a password.
2.
How does a client who’s a member of a consortia tell the service that they want rolled up data for the whole consortia. By default we serve just their own usage.

<xs:attribute name="ID" type="xs:string" use="required"/>
