Determine and use max Peak in a month to use for billing

Former Member

Hi experts,

i try to explain my need in short words. During billing I read and store a peak Kw value in an operand that later I have to use for price determination DEMAND1:

reading the register: DEMAND14

Ok, now i should need to compare the value with other peaks during the same month. So my question is:

1 - How can I read the peaks in the same months? I tried DEMAND15 but it seems not to work (i'm certaintly doing wrong)

2 - How can I substitute the peak with the max in order to bill correctly.

Thanks a lot,

Gabriele

Hi,

This problem has a solution but firstly it is necessary to clarify following questions:

1. How do you store meter readings in kW (profile, register)

2. Do you have more Pmax as meter readings in month? (where?)

3. Are you using RTP or register billing?

4. How looks the billing rule for Pmax like?

Hi,

Try creating a customized variant program to copy other peak values (as per your requirement) in the operand.

Hi!

1) Register

2) I have different 02 meter readings and a single 01 at the end of the month. I have to use the max value between these

3) Register billing

4) It's the standard demand01, applying a price*quantity

Thanks!

During 02 - Interim billing you can write Pmax value into installation facts (INFACT01) and in periodic billing read this value from installation facts (DEMAND18) and use in current billing period.

Hi Gabriele:

To make the system take the demand peak of the month, you due mark the flag: 'Demand per month ", in the properties of the 'register operand' (EA51).

I hope this helps.
