Estimation logic

[former_member230043]

Hi All,

Need Your help in below scenario, I have a requirement to estimate meter read as per below.

1- if last 6 month reads are actual then average of 6 month consumption.

Else

2- Average of last continuous actual reads.

Else

3 - multiply by 0.4

My billing cycle is bimonthly, I have define min portion as 300% in rate but system always going back 6 months even if all previous reads are esimated, this should only look back if all 6 month reads are actual.

Please suggest for 2nd condition.

For 3rd - I have defined that in period consumption.

Thanks in advance

Regards

Veer

Hi Veer,

If you want only actual reads to be considered for estimation, you can set it at the following path.

Utilities->Device Management->Meter Reading->Basic Settings->Control Parameters for meter reading

Here you would find an indicator called 'ignore est'. If you set it, the system will ignore estimated reads for extrapolation.

Hope this helps.

Just got the answer on my own,

Point no.2 - can't be achieve through standard,It requires a Enhancement (EDMLELHA) to achieve it.

Point no. 3 - can be achieve by period consumption.
