Use quantity or quantity billed

Usage is the customary manner for measuring the use of a utility during a given period. Use Usage to determine what the report will use to measure consumption. Use Quantity to use the consumption recorded in the Quantity field in the customer's record. Or use Quantity Billed to use the consumption saved in the Bill Quantity field.

What do you want to do?

  • I want to calculate usage based on Quantity. On the Report Options tab, click Quantity.

  • I want to calculate usage based on the Quantity Billed. On the Report Options tab, click Quantity Billed.  

Process each period separately

If more than one period is selected as the report date range, use this option to total consumption for each period. When this option is not selected, the report will total consumption for all periods in the date range.

Do you want to process the selected periods together or separately?

  • I want to process periods together. Do not select the Process Each Period Separately checkbox to calculate usage for each period in the date range together.

  • I want to process periods separately. Select the Process Each Period Separately checkbox to calculate usage for each period in the date range independently of the other selected periods.

Consumption levels

When you use a rate the rate uses levels, or tiers, to calculate amounts. You can set up the variables the level will use to calculate amounts. Use Consumption Levels to calculate consumption based on a rate table.

  • I want to override the existing rate levels. On the Consumption Levels tab, click Use Selected Rate Levels. Next, fill in the values in the section titled Rates on the Consumption Levels tab.
