Summary

The consumption reports process is designed to help users confirm their consumption values are balanced. The Sub Meter Listing report is the final step in the consumption balancing process, and will help organizations that use subtraction meters gain a better understanding of how they affect consumption balancing.

Step by Step

1     Open the Sub Meter Listing report window (UB> Reports Consumption> Sub Meter Listing).

2     Configure the report.

• Check the toggle next to each Route you would like to include in the report.
  • By default, all routes will be selected. You can check the toggle next to the field title to select or deselect all the displayed routes. This applies to all of the following toggle fields as well.
  • Routes are created and maintained on the Route Maintenance window (UB> Maintenance> Route).
• Check the toggle next to each Device Type you would like to include in the report.
  • Device types are created and maintained on the Device Type Maintenance window (UB> Maintenance> Device Type).
• The report will display the Device Type, Route Sequence, Serial/MXU/Register Number, Connection Status, Account Number, Service Point, Sub Route Sequence, and Serial/MXU/Register Number.

3     Print the report.

• Once the required report settings have been specified, click the Print button to print your report.
• Click the options arrow on the right side of the Print button to see other print options.
  • Select Send PDF to Job Viewer to print the report in the default Springbrook format.
  • Select Send Excel to Job Viewer to export the report data to an Excel spreadsheet as unformatted data.
  • Select Send Excel (Formatted) to Job Viewer to export the report data to an Excel spreadsheet that includes much of the Springbrook formatting found on the printed version of the report.
• Click the Schedule icon   next to the Print button in order to schedule the report to generate at a later date and time.
  • Scheduled printing has not yet been enabled for reports generated from process batches. This functionality will be released in an upcoming service pack.
• Users can also regenerate a report with the same configuration as a prior report via the report history section. This can help improve efficiency when an identical report is frequently generated.
  • Once a report has been generated, the date and time it was generated will display in the report history accessed via the Expand Arrow button on the right side of the window.
  • Expand the report history and click on a previous report record to automatically populate the report criteria with the criteria specified on the previously generated report. This section will display the last three times the report was generated.
