Open Perm ID

I understand that an Open Perm ID has been applied to all Reuters Instruments, for example

Name: AA PLC - RIC AAAA.L - Open Perm ID 5014439907

or

Name: ABERFORTH SMALLER CO TRUST PLC - RIC MWG.AX Open Perm ID 4295894334

So my question is - does the Open Perm ID get distributed as a FID on the Datafeed and what FID Number is it?

I couldn't find Open Perm ID in the latest field dictionary. There are field definitions for others, such as ISIN, SEDOL, and CUSIP but not Open Perm ID.

CUSIP 2178
ISIN_CODE 3655
SEDOL 3756

However, the availability of the data depends on exchanges. Some exchanges may not provide these values.

I have subscribed to AAAA.L from the Datafeed and couldn't find 5014439907 in the refresh message. Please see the attached file for the available fields for AAAA.L.
