Waste Water

Good day

We need to add the billing/invoicing of waste water. It will be a step tariff and should appear as a seperate line on the invoice. It should also post to a seperate GL account for auditiong purposes.

The consumption will be the same as the normal water consumption.

Now, I have never done a change like this, I am very new at this. I need your ISU experience please.

Is it possible to implement waste water without creating a new contract or installation?

Is it necessary to create a new account determination id?

Where can I found a process to guide me how to do this, please?

Thanks for your help in advance.

The best practice in this scenario is to create separate division and separate contracts.  You could do it in one contract but not meet all of your requirements, especially regards the receivables accounting.  Your rate configuration would be more complex to handle the additional calculations and the new lines could post as separate lines and revenue posted to separate general ledger accounts.  Other considerations would be scenarios where only water or only waste water are billed.

bill.
